Is The 2021 BMW M2 Competition Still The One To Get?

Показать описание
This week I drove a stunning BMW M2 Competition and discussed whether or not I would take it over either the original M2, or the brand new M2CS? To say that this wasn't a fun exercise would be a lie, but I tried my best to weight out all factors involved.

Most prominently, there's cost, and it dictates most people's final choice. But, there's also factors ranging from maintenance/reliability, as well as the fact that these cars -- particularly the fact that N55 powered OG M2 and the S55 powered M2C I was driving today are ENTIRELY different cars in many ways.

Anyway, I discuss all of this, as well as why I enjoy the M2 Competition because of what it stands for as a new car in the current market. The fact that I was able to row my own gears... because BMW is one of not too many German brands to still offer us a Manual transmission at all (I'm talking to you Mercedes and Audi!!)

This is my take on the M2 vs M2C vs M2CS debate, tough! A delightful experience however, it still was -- and if you watch the video you'll surely see that... Long Live the M2!!!!

FOLLOW ME!!

I would ask 'Bimmer, Benz, or Bentley?' ... but if you're watching this video, I likely know the answer :)

Finally a review with a manual, so sick of all of them being the stupid ass automatic. I love my m2c, The CS is nice but not worth the price charged for it and I would rather have a fixed suspension

Finally an M car for true M fans. As a NA motor fan, I think the exhaust sounds good. My question is how does the steering compare to a hydraulic setup

Great video! This was the "quirks and features" video I was looking for from Doug. He did a very short video on it and this filled in the gaps.

I've ordered I believe the same spec and I cannot wait. I feel even better about my decision now.

Great detailed review. I’m anticipating on picking up the exact same configuration in the next few days.

Great video. Put my deposit for a manual HS M2c in late Feb. A month later the order was finally accepted. It is still “scheduled for production” now so eagerly waiting while watching every video on YouTube about this car

Great content man! I just pursched a brand new 2020 BMW M4 heritage edition and I’m absolutely loving it. Previously had a Porsche and I’m not sure I’ll ever go back.

I had an LCI M2 and now have an M2 Competition

Things I preferred in my older car
- seats were more comfortable (but not as attractive)
- sound was incredible, I had FI catted DP and M Perf Exhaust
- more power down low
- liked the kidney better
- interior seemed quieter

What I like about the comp:
- Mirrors
- S55 power ceiling, no mods needed
- Gauges
- Hockenheim
- Breaks are insane

I wish I didn't sell the OG. The gap wasn't big enough. With BM3 Stage 2, Wagner Comp IC, FI Catted DP, the car was absolutely amazing as a daily and canyon car. But the Competition has the collectability factor

Just found this site, and you are efficent and good and know your stuff. I will definitely share with many. Question if you could purchase m2 comp or m3 where do you go? My Budget is good my skills driving good, bmw history bad. Audi/porsche/tesla, had and sold. Been wanting a drivers car with HP and handling that gives you that Grin.

Yay another upload! And a manual Beemer! Can’t wait to get into this! And those magic gloves add a level of intensity to the BMW experience. We curse exactly the same, too! Hahaha

Great review, I have a 2020 m2 comp in Hockenhiem silver but with the orange stitch, and I love it. Not the best on gas mileage lol but that’s not why I bought it.

The OG is a good car and for the price it just can't be beat, I almost ended up with one but for a bit more you just get so much more and probably also a warranty so imo its worth it.

Hey! Great video. Are the wheels on this car the forged bi-color or forged black? I can't decide between the two which one I want!

Great performance sports car. Looked at many before buying my M2 comp, dct, best value for money to put a smile on your face.

I love the M2C, just worried about the engine crank hub issue.
I'd still have one if I had the money.
I'm happy with my OG M2 though.

Ppl hate on the S55 engine but that’s how most twin turbocharged engines sound.
