These fenders do not look the same as for the curvature;
IMHO the fenders have the wrong curvature, not like the 1M, but just the opposite. It makes it a little saggy IMHO |

the question is why are they using an n55 instead of a modified b58... i find the m2 being underbuilt big time to not approach m4 territory.. shuda had the m4 engine or some new 5 cyl turbo or some shit but not the n55 thats probably already maxed out by bmw software wise.

As for the rest: BMW doesn't make an I5 engine, so there's no platform to use there. Like you said, an S55 would threaten the F80/F82. The possibility of an S20 was flushed because of the market research (apparently). I'm as unhappy as anyone about the N55, but I'm willing to wait until the car arrives to judge it. I would really have preferred their market research include a little more detail, like "S-designated I4 vs N-designated I6" rather than a straight "I4 vs I6" question.

Is it my optimism or does it look like there are rear 1/4 panel vent/openings under the camo?
I don't think a CF roof is coming on this version. I think a CSL/GTS is in the mix as a 2018 model. The M3 had race cred from the outset. This M2 NEEDS to race and needs to win. If marketed right, it's the new M division sales leader. With no 'proper' S engine, it's obviously designed to be profitable. Add some colors and make some money!!! (and by colors, I mean Red, or Sahkir. Not 5 shades of gray) Also, Blue stitching deserves Blue seat belts. IMO. |

Nothing special styling wise compared to the M235. Was hoping for something a little more aggressive.

For the people who haven't been following this car daily for the last 4 months, you have missed a lot about how aggressive this car will look. |
