Seriously funny, I think M2 is a d**k magnet, no girls ever notice my car, only guys always give the stare. LOL

My car is LBB, I get attention from car people but not many regular folks unless they comment on the color. At Cars and Coffee it gets lots of attention, especially a couple of months ago when it was the first M2 most had seen. I joke to my wife that I am driving every 20 something old guys dream car because young guys in particular seem attracted to it and photograph it quite a bit and C&C.

BSM only 2500km in and I have to say that this car has attracted plenty of attention. Mostly head turns and double takes but have watched from a restaurant window a young girl (with her bf) going nuts walking around the car taking pics with her phone. However he seemed very disinterested funny enough.
I also regularly have to wipe away the drool from a hockey teammate who recently purchased a new WRX |

Nice write up. from owning the M4, the only logic i cane come up with is that, it is BMW's halo car, faster and more luxurious, yet it is the M2 that its called time and time again the actual "spiritual" successor to the M3. I suppose that can be an annoyance when the M4/M3 is quite more expensive. |

MG was my choice to avoid attention from most. Everyone was really pushing LBB last year, but it seems like Mineral Grey is getting a lot more love recently. Not sure if that's a good thing or bad thing.

I have a BSM with lots of carbon bits and the blacked out front end. Plus the MPE which I think attracts a lot of notice as it sounds amazing. Quite a few stares and thumbs up etc. was grabbing a burger for lunch with a friend earlier this week and a guy was getting into his GLE63 which is a beautiful SUV and he stopped and walked to the back end of my car to check. I'm assuming he was like 'what kind of fenders bulge like that??' as the m235 is very muted in styling. He probably didn't know about the M2. Now he does and it seemed like he approved.
other than that I wouldn't say it's an overly 'loud' car. Orange or austin metallic M4's or porsche's do a better job at head turning. Or crappy civics with fart cans etc. |

Yeah - just happened yesterday. I wanted to waive and talk to the guy but we split in different directions before I had a chance. He followed me for a bit observing then shot around me in traffic. I did not bite. Was pretty cool though.
