Everything I love About The BMW G87 M2, And Why You Should Buy One

[@azzanal-sinani3413]

The blue is fine but when you put the black on OMG that looks so aggressive

[@VehicleVirals]

I agree

[@PlagueBearer99]

In person the blue looks stunning I‘d take some bright color

[@M240_]

This car looks so good, inside and out. I bet it performs good too, with just a simple downpipe and tune these things are going to be bullying a lot of cars in the wild.

[@aznerol0770]

Yep, I'm a fan. Great walk around of your amazing car. I'm starting to like it more and more.

[@Carlos-ro4ji]

Looks amazing the color is awesome. The red brake calipers stand out. Looks great. Those that hate wish they had it. Tigere.

[@performancepeeps]

the M3/M4 grille have grown on me but the M2 grille wins all day...I love your car man, you speced it perfect. The best colors in my opinion would be either Brooklyn grey, red or Black. I know the word is BMW won't make an AWD version but if they do I'll definitely be getting one.

[@soapydesigner]

Great Bauhaus Design!

[@LuisAngelFeliciano-m8j]

Looks great.. definitely an awesome BMW. The black and the red 🔥🔥🔥look so mad!! I like it! Enjoy your new ride bro

Hi Christian I just wanted to leave a comment saying thank you! I’ve been following your content for the longest just bought a Tial bov from your website today and it’s shipped already! I love the great speedy customer service ! Please don’t stop making content you really inspire so much people!!!!

Car looks so good, especially in person. and it seems a lot of people are already coming around on the looks. An ecu flash might make this faster than a base m4.

On the front end I'd body match the horizontal bottom cross bar to create a tunnel like look and put mesh behind there to stop rocks and such. IMO the Harman Kardon systems have always sounded great.

Good stuff. This week my local dealer offered me a customer allocation after they went in a different direction. It was BSM, which is what I want, but an auto. Oh well, the wait continues…

[@AerialAries]

Just picked one up last week and it’s been amazing so far! Something I’m beginning to realize is the new M2 is BMW’s version of a muscle car! The styling, the power train, it all screams German muscle!

[@KORCORP]

Downpipe and Valvetronic midpipe/catback is a must

[@kyrix1st]

Is the rear seat also merino leather with carbon package? Couldn't figure it out from the video alone.

[@brandonsok1912]

Overall styling is not bad. However, I gotta say…. The rear tail lights are just too far apart or too small. The side grills are also a must on all m cars.

[@jamarhall6378]

The color and the interior is 🔥I can say on the M2

[@davidescobar1052]

I’m digging the car the more I see it.

[@envirocasing6772]

[@alleycatt8935]

We honestly need more videos like this. I ordered my m2 cause I liked the style, but everywhere you look people are just shitting on it

[@jgway9980]

Nice review. People have legit made fools of themselves knit picking this car. How dare BMW make a 453 hp sports car under $70k😆. I owned 2 different previous Gen M2’s and have a G80 on the way. It’s saddening that such a great car (every Gen) has so many whiny followers.

[@vintageyu-hi-oh4271]

Have to say this has really grown on me. Imo it makes it’s rivals “rs3, A45s” look dated. + a 6 cylinder engine! Props to BMW

[@verde629]

I hope they add a red interior option in the future but currently a BSM exterior and a cognac interior would be my choice

[@hawkinsjd11]

I like everything about this car except how it looks. I have a 2017 M240i and imo that is the best, newest body style.

[@theluminary5324]

Side profile kinda looks like the first gen Scion TC

[@BMW1M]

I hated this car in the initial leaked pics, but I was invited to the launch event, and in person it's fkn fire! I love it. It states its intentions perfectly. The only real downside is the same as the G8x's - because the platform was designed for EV's as well, the combustion engine versions end up unnecessarily heavy. That's a sign of the times though - we are living in a weird place between combustion and electric rn. The S58 makes up for the added weight, and the step forward in chassis capability makes it all very accessible - your grandma can drive this M car.

[@M2-G87-R]

I have a m2 g87, when starting hard I got stuck in first gear and I think I reached the injection cut-off, that affects the engine in some way, should I be worried about my engine? Should the engine be prepared for these situations?

[@jappythevappy7958]

The carbon bucket seats on the m2 are no longer an option anymore, nobody can get them in NA. I had mine spec out to have carbon bucket seats, and was supposed to arrive, but I got the call, from my dealership saying that BMW no longer will be making carbon bucket seats as an option, and I emailed BMW North America, and they said it was no longer a thing since production in November 2022 which is interesting because they still got it listed on their website. The carbon bucket seat option is no longer available for majority of the m cars beside the CS or CSL cars from what I've been told.

[@VehicleVirals]

If that's true, the value for those seats are about to soar!

Zandvoort Blue is such a great color.

[@Lester.M]

It’s a modernized E82/135i

[@vintagetrk]

Only things I don't like are the grills and the display. I wish they had gone with a digital gauge cluster and a separate display. It's a BadAss car thats for sure.

[@isaac-shapiro]

the M2 CS should shed the weight most people expected for the standard M2... hopefully the CS scratches the itch for more hardcore M enthusiasts

[@slappywhite5926]

i always keep my 100s loose in the console for the starbucks drive-thru.

[@Reaper_03-01]

I'm not loving the cluster, I like my displays built into the dash, it just looks better, imho. Other than that and that ghastly rear bumper, the M2 is a scene stealer. And ofcourse tell us what you don't like about the car!

[@thewheeltroll1833]

Thanks for breaking the cycle! I know every car isn't perfect, but I never understood how people get their "Dream car" then release a video pooping on it lol.

[@hexagonosaurus5848]

Broke mentality

[@DjNikGnashers]

I think it's a brilliant car. I prefer the exterior styling of the previous gen, but this new version isn't 'bad' it's just the old gen was perfect and it is unrealistic to expect anything to compare. This is good and interesting, but it's not as nice as the old one. The car is technically brilliant.

[@KINZERS13GTR]

We always get people yelling on both sides of this camp. Subjective opinion... I don't like that color blue, never have... whatever I don't like that there's no side vent... Whatever! Old BMWs didn't either. I don't like the black chin, under the grill. It Gives it a fu manchu look... Whatever! Fix it yourself! I'll take an F87 CS all day over this... Whatever! Who cares! It weighs too much... Yeah, facts! I still like the car, regardless of the design updates, and I'm loving the aftermarket changes being made to it already. PSi for example. Let's keep it going bro 🙌🙌 can't wait to see more updates on this.

[@Wardaddy_YT]

M2 has always been my favorite bmw at first bout threw up when i seen this is what they came up with mainly the damn headlights look small aff everything else is perfect imo maybe change to vertical kidneys but everything else is *chefs kiss*👌 the interior really gets me chubbed up oml🫦😂

[@colerobinson1187]

Save the manuals!

[@drjk7565]

I noticed when you're accelerating from 3rd gear at around 3000rpm, there seems to be only minor turbo-lag, but when Throttle House reviewed the car, they said it had "no guts" below 3500rpm (keep in mind they did it at 4th gear). That incident has become infamous and it blew up on the BMW forums, but what are your thoughts/experiences?

[@VehicleVirals]

There's definitely a bit of lag down low. More noticeable on 3rd and 4th gear. 1st and 2nd are fine. Actually talked about it in the M2 video before this one. And will also talk about it again, in my next M2 video.

[@eiros59]

It’s obviously a weird tune compared to its bigger brothers, another thing that put me off.

[@drjk7565]

@@eiros59 What's weird is that when most people reviewed the M3/M4 manual back in 2021, no one seemed to have a problem with how BMW set it up, but now with the M2 it's a big deal?

[@kentao4]

So for me, I like the grill of the m3/m4. If I had to rank all 3 cars, it’s M3, M2, then M4. No hate but I just feel like the m2 is just a watered down m4 with a different shell.

[@postalpancho]

Personally I have a 230i M-sport. Car is plenty quick for a daily and I have already ran Fastest in Class at a couple motor sport events. The M2 is great but lets face it, this KZbinr and the overwhelming majority of you guys on the internet can't drive for shit and take full advantage of the M2s potential. Even with my 230i I am already kicking ass and I still feel that my skill level is the limiting factor in my performance on track. This KZbinr and the majority of people buying this car are just flexing their ego. Most of you guys don't need this much car. Just save your money and learn how to get good. Too many people these days flexing with their cars when they can't drive for shit.

Are those summer tires?? I’m thinking of the M2 now (gray with those black rims) I was considering the Bmw 550 But I heard the S58 engine is like the best engine bmw makes aside from the M5 engine then the B58 in the 540 and other 40 variants But N55 engine in the 550 I’m kinda unsure

Yeap the best summer tires you can get. PS4's
