Receiving praise from my pregnant (at the time), wife and extremely sensitive father in law.

I hope they still offer the firm fixed suspension for the rest of us. I think they M2 should fill a niche for those of us that want something edgier and more focused. All the new BMWs are already adjustable and soft already, not sure what is gained by making another one soft or gadgetized. There is a gap that was only partially filled by the 1M due to low numbers. I think they should let you check all the gadgets you want including built in Hookah, massaging seats with whirlpool motion and air conditioning. Mood lighting, Bidet, 32 speaker surround sound with 24 inch 3D display in front of the windshield BUT give you the option to leave all that stuff off to make it light, nimble, focused, edgy and with some real freakin' sound a la 1M.

That's my two cents worth.
amen
