I found the earlier information in my notes. It indicated production will cease in 10/18.

My three at the moment .. sold my M3 in march and bought the CLIO RS. I have to say it is one of the most lovely cars I have ever driven. The best hot hatch so far. It is so good that i do not miss my M3 (S54 CSL engine).

I see a blue Golf R on the way to work about twice a week - I think it looks pretty wicked, but I am never close enough to hear the thing - how's the exhaust note?

It's a 5 cylinder, right? Those sound nice on Audis.

2l 4-cyl, but they sound better then you think. I had one before with a Milltek exhaust and it sounded great (too much drone though).

My Golf R mk7 sounds terrific - waaay better than my M235i (both stock). Compared to it, the M235i is too quiet with a slight tendency to drone at some speeds...

Awesome - great info. I had a 1.8T Jetta back in the day that sounded nice too - you could hear the turbo whistle far better, for example, than on any of my turbo BMWs.

Totally agree - my 235 only sounds nice at start up, in my garage.

I hope I can get close enough to the guy on the highway to hear his sometime.

Hi everyone!
New to the forum...hoping like everyone that BMW will make other Manufactures like MB, Audi, Porsche etc. envious of the 2016 M2 Coupe.

Current vehicles being driven as follows:
2015 X3
2011 135i with M package and performance upgrade.
Don't do any wrenching on cars...just the enjoyment you get to drive them.
