The M2 to me will be the best M car. The 4 is a boat. Its huge and to be honest, as that article points out the value on the marginal difference in performance compared to others is not great at all. Size gets me down about it, its just too big and lacks the toss'ability an Mcar should provide.

The M2 is on the radar now. I wont consider the 4 and will not bother testing it. An engaging drive is never about just power!

I should be able to M2 test in March if things go well according to my dealer here.

I agree that the M2 will be the best "Driver's M" car. I do like the M4 a lot as a grand tourer. I'd actually take a new Camaro SS over the M4... it's more fun to drive.

Continuing with the topic of BMW, my wife and I are considering buying an E70 X5 35i. Either a Sport Activity or M-Sport variant. If we do, I'm probably going to sell/trade my Z for it and take over our 2013 335i M-Sport. I'm in need of a car that is a bit more polished and practical anyway (new job, new lifestyle,) so I think it makes sense. If we go that route, I'm definitely adding Bilstein PSS10s, and maybe a JB Stage 1 for a little bit of extra power.
