The Z is gone to a good home and now waiting for the upgrade.
 
I cannot wait to take a delivery. It's optional with carbon package with CF bucket seats.

zero 07-31-2023 07:09 AM

Thanks. It probably won't get built until Sept.

Was trying to keep up with one at the track last week. Super quick!

And the body kit over the regular 2 serious is outrageous… in an amazing way. Good luck

The build will start in October so I might get it by Nov. I'm expecting in Dec. because I have M Performance suspension added as part of the build.

Base MSRP around $63k, less than the new Nismo Z.

That's just ridiculous. A friend of mine has the previous gen M2 (facelift) and that car is just a beast. It looks good, goes like hell, and has incredible handling, all stock. I honestly believe it's better than the new nismo Z. The newer generation M2 can only be even better in every aspect. (Apart from looks imo, but that's debatable). Pricing the new Z above M2 is just absurd.

There are debates as the new Nismo Z is priced above base M2, even more when compared to Supra ($56k for base 3.0) and Mustang Dark Horse ($60k), and within spitting distant to a C8 corvette. Hell, I can even get a used GT350.

And that stupid 9 speed auto, while much better than our Z34’s 7at, is not good enough to rival the ZF 8 speed.

Then we have the speaker playing engine sound…

It’s a tough sell. It doesn’t stand out in any category, nor is it a great all-around car in any objective measure. Can’t go the “raw experience route either, automatic plus tame engine and exhaust sound. Sigh. Sorry OP. Back to the M2.

Rusty 10-01-2023 08:51 PM

That M2 has caught my eye. I like it. :tup:

Firebase99 10-05-2023 10:27 AM

So ironic, Ive been busy last few months and weeks but I got the M2 "itch" a couple weeks ago too...Not the M3, nor M4, the 2. Everything Ive read and heard about it makes it the BEST M car yet.

zero 10-12-2023 02:12 PM

Entering the assembly line today.

:happydance:

It's moving quickly through the assembly. Within a day, it's now in quality check. Hopefully there is no delay and it should be delivered by end of this month.

Yes, the price is adding up. I also have carbon package and M performance suspension option.

That's the same price as G87 M2 with carbon package before tax. My M2 is almost ready to transport.

That's ridiculous for a 2018 SS even with the 1LE package :bowrofl:

You can get a 2020+ ZL1 1LE for less. Hell, you can probably get a c7 Z06 for that amount.

Dealer gonna be sitting on that one for while. :rolleyes:

zero 10-14-2023 09:41 AM

Hopefully it's here before the end of Oct.

It should arrive this week at BMW distribution center in Oxnard, and get MP suspension installed. Then it will be at the dealer for PDI and delivery.

zero 10-28-2023 10:30 PM

It's at BMW Distribution Center today for MP suspension installation.

Thank you. Full front PPF is done and I can enjoy driving. This M2 exceeds my expectation. I cannot wait to finish the 1200 mile break-in period.

Nice specs! Sweet color and the carbon buckets are the chef’s kiss.

Thanks. CF bucket seats are very nice, indeed.

Those seats are a thing of beauty. That dash is tesla-like hideous.

What is it like to drive? You probably have a break-in period now, right?

It's still in a break-in period so I'm driving in Comfort mode under 4K RPM. It will need a break-in service at 1200 miles. Personally, the drive is very good. It's planted and easy going fast without knowing it even under 4K RPM. I bet it will fell rocketing above 4K RPM. Overall I'm happy with this M2. It's practical for everyday car and a fun car to drive.

Here is Chris Harris on G87 M2.
