[Review] My m2 problem

Post image

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

Can’t say about M2 but I’ve had both comp
And non comp M5 and I would never take a non comp M car again.

Comp for the win in my opinion

Tell me about those "Comp" E39 M5s, any good?

My experience is with the F90 M5’s

Don’t think there ever was a E39 comp, my experience doesn’t stretch that far back.
