Whoever edited this video deserves a promotion and a pay raise. Wow and wow.

Cinematographer : Charlie B Rose, a very talented bloke

[@BeardedHam]

I think drew is the editor??

[@charliebrose3000]

Thanks, I hope my boss sees this. 😄

[@krismcguirk5828]

The cinematography reminds me of the classic Top Gear, Aston V12 Vantage review for the season finale. Beautiful.

More people need to know about this channel

[@宝矿力-o2i]

it’s not bout the channel, it’s about Henry Catchpole.

[@RichardFanders]

Disagree, Henry has got really good at this in the last couple of years but the film crew behind him are also at the top of their game.

[@Runoratsu]

@@RichardFanders Agreed. While Henry is undeniably the best automotive journalist out there at the moment, the whole package is amazing as well, they all are on top of their game.

[@007oli]

This came up on my home page, never seen the channel before and have subscribed straight away (BMW is my favourite manufacturer) amazing production.

[@PaddyMcQueen]

It this means to ruin everything... nope I prefere they continue this wonderfull way

[@Ic3crawler]

Damn that transition at 6:23, amazing production!

[@LittyJonez]

Beautiful transition !!!

[@XtremertXHD]

So epic!

[@takayashiyohoho4384]

The problem of watching Henry’s video is that I want to buy that car immediately after his test drive video

[@francoisg3500]

Don't we all!

And interestingly, it‘s with every car they review

Sorry all 😂 I meant to say, these people are best in English speaking countries... not in other language countries. Ergo nobody can be world's best.

[@ool3062]

This is the type of reviews BMWs should be, the M2 is not all about luxury, it is meant to be driven. Good work on this!

[@antoinefraser3365]

The production quality of this channel is A1 10/10 lol like bruh its like a movie lol. And the car enthusiast details are never lacking

[@Kelveron]

Great channel. Henry Catchpole is one of the best reviewers online. Laid back, objective, unbiased and totally unshowy. Fine production values too.

[@TomBroughtonPhotography]

Absolutely beautiful cinematography and editing!!

[@sourabhsahukar]

Carfection has clearly the best Automotive content and Everything else.

[@xTheLilAznx]

The editing and cinematography is top notch. Splendid video to watch

[@1061shrink1061]

excellent video. No matter what I'm doing, if I see another Catchpole video on carfection, I stop and watch. Always worth it. Imagine a Catchpole / Harris video!

[@becgaf]

catchpole/harris/meaden/bovingdon..... maybe a bit of tiff too

[@RaineyNights]

I had to go back and watch the transition at 6:23 a few times lol Nicely done guys!

[@dombower]

RaineyNights Hollywood levels of awesome editing.

[@bohemod]

I must admit, it caught me too!

[@ShogunsDojo]

Another great video, and the editing was a highlight. Henry really did a good job differentiating the 3 versions of the m2 (OG, LCI, Competition) and whilst it might not be as simple as this it would seem as though with each version they have softened the suspension to make the grip less peaky and more progressive and predictable. Chris Harris has advocated the advantages that softer setups can bring without detracting from limit handling with his Alpina videos. Not that I’d ever want an M car to be as soft as an alpina mind you, but they appear to be finding that sweet spot between balance, poise, predictability and comfort.

[@tommihommi1]

The M2 competition is a chip tuner's dream come true

[@JoeJacksonGT3]

The rear needs more traction for more HP. It's quite difficult to use on a track as it is (I've tried it). While it will be easy to get more HP, it isn't necessarily a good thing to have with such a low traction setup. This btw is even with the updated suspension

[@tommihommi1]

@@JoeJacksonGT3 people who just do a chip tune and don't add a rear spoiler+front lip obviously aren't doing it for track use.

[@JoeJacksonGT3]

@@tommihommi1 agreed and is why I felt compelled to add some context about the lack of grip with more hp

[@GeneralBritt]

@@JoeJacksonGT3 The suspension has not been touched by BMW since the original M2. Only the diff has a new tune.

[@meady200]

Might wanna replace the crank hub first though.

The title should be: Harry Potter and the Reviewing of the M2C.

[@silv3rArrow]

That intro though...43 seconds of greatness! Kudos to both Henry and Charlie.

[@richardlawes8893]

Absolutely cracking video once again. How is this content still free?!?! Keep it up!

[@SnGrg]

this has to be the best review of this car. All other review goes on about interior seats and LED light in unsual places, which really doesn't matter, Its the driving sensation that we all wanted to immerse into and this review justified it. PS the videography is really good.

[@AlexandruDaniel01]

In my opinion this guys (specifically Henry) make the best car reviews in the world,there,I said it ;)

[@ashishkalam9337]

i think Alex has the best reviews and definitely the best analogies. Still Carfection though.

[@gtlegacy8]

If i had money to burn i would definitely get the manual M2 comp over the "Supra".

[@r.mz__2147]

I am absolutely stunned by how this video is edited! I did watched it twice and I’m still shocked! Definitely the best car review I have ever watched! Just perfect!

best channel for cars, hands down. Henry you're an absolute beauty

[@colinwatt00]

Dear Mr. Catchpole, I am continually impressed by your insight into cars. I hadn’t thought of adaptive dampers in the way you presented in this video and I’m inclined to agree. There are certainly persons who rely on their vehicle to compensate for any skill deficiency, but there are also persons who want to get to know their vehicle. Thank your or drawing that distinction. - C

[@atastefortheroad4475]

Once again you all at Carfection have raised the bar. Well done. Charlie - kudos to your cinematography and editing skills! Other reviews just got more challenging to watch.

[@ramirojorge2887]

This channel is such a gem, it must be the only one that surprises me in terms of edditing and content. Everything feels just right.

The aero wing mirrors are delicious.....................mouth watering even. Superb.

[@kristian22]

Henry Catchpole and team, this is an amazingly shot and edited video, mates

[@makgalemarcusmathale1066]

No one tells you when you buy an M2 that it will try to spit you out of the road. Glad they have sorted it out with the Comp. Lovely review. Tops.

[@cw205mi16]

What are the real changes though as parts are not change M2 vs Comp. It must just be bushings at the rear, contrary to the video.

[@hamishmmc]

Really impressive camera work and editing! Just enough style without being cheesy or over the top!

[@Th3cr4zy0n3]

This is probably one of the best editing work i saw in last years... The Grand Tour included.... simply amazing

[@thomasautengruber8369]

Not a single bad review from Mr Catchpole! Always tells a story, not just the stats from the manufacturers website

[@idokwatcher2062]

Except not telling the full story is he. Crank hub failure present from N55 to S55 which they ignore to avoid accepting blame for it. ECU built-in throttle delay on upshift. Not a peep of _that_ story. Not a peep of the story where customers save their money.

[@hilmydjunaedi2617]

Oh my god, the quality of the editing and the video overall is on point!! Best review so far, keep it up guys, good luck!😊

[@MrJdp1968]

​I would be really interessted in what they changed on the chassis in detail from a regular 2 series. :) Great Video!

[@leokaravasili9649]

Solid mounted rear subframe, m3/4 control arms at the front which i think are solidly mounted, same goes for rear, stiffer springs and dampers that sit lower too

[@cw205mi16]

The car is sat on an M3/M4 chassis/drivetrain, hence the pumped up bodywork

Lovely stuff. I think some 1M or CSL wheels would be a great addition to the M2C

[@Dingolfing]

Nice review Henry as always but either you or the researchers need to better do your homework. They may have changed the DSC and M diff software, but the spring and damper rates are unchanged from the old N55 M2. Check the part numbers and don't believe the marketing BS.

[@gamerclips1882]

Sitting in the bmw dealership watching this while my f22 is being worked on. Might just tell them to stop working on it and what the trade in will be 😂
