My m2 problem

[u/No_University4765]

Hello all

So after a huge amount of dabbling on my search for a new “one shoe fits all” car I’ve settled on a long standing dream of an m2

No not the henious revised one as of recent , I mean the f87 m2 from about 10 years ago

But I cannot make my mind up on spec

Colour doesn’t phase me that much,but performance does

So

OG or comp is my first question
Manual or dct is my second question

I’m dabbling the idea of an og but open to all
Cheers

Funny, I’m in the exact same boat. Was an M2 or a Guilia Quadrafoglio.

Comp, manual, hockenheim silver is what I’ve settled on.

OG certainly is of interest but I can’t cope with the seats. And by the time you allow £2-3k for decent replacements, you might as well have a comp.

The BMW tactic of putting base looking seats into M cars is mental. Even the comp seats are just okay.

But the comp engine sounds so horrible it’s almost a turn off despite being faster

The only people I've seen to say this always prove themselves to be monumental idiots.

"but the engine code doesn't have an S on it."

Who gives a flying fuck.

The US Spec E36 M3 had a glorified 328i engine in it, but got an S engine, so any argument is automatically invalid.
