Whatever you do or don't think you are is irrelevant to me.

Thank you for the updated information, now I'll get back to waiting for some new mules and see what we can deduce from them.

Have a great day chief!

Hi, Scott!
Has the Vision luXury been pulled at the last time from Shanghai?

Regards, man!

No offense to the M235i which is a great car, but it only comes close to the 1M in numbers. In driver involvement, feel and satisfaction it's far removed from it and that's what the new M3/M4 are being criticized for. No one is saying that they aren't fast.

I'm not just quoting publications as I have driven both the 1M and the M235i extensively (well, one of them much more extensively )

If numbers were all that mattered we'd all be driving vettes
I've driven the M235 a few times now and was totally underwhelmed...in fact my old 135is was more involving. It can't even be compared to the 1M. If you guys are lucky the M2 will be more like the 1M and provide a simple and old school take on driving rather than a softer and more ordinary experience like the 235

What are you guys talking about? This sounds like it has absolutely nothing to do with the M2.

The quoted post was on 3/15. Can we get a little help on when "soon" might be?

Well it needs to get to summer for hot weather testing. Seems like its almost a sure bet we won't see the official reveal until Frankfurt in September.

I don't understand the September date: get a few more m3/4 buyers in the door? Create an appropriate lease span from the initial M235 launch? Just kick out the details!

I would imagine other manufactures already know what the M2 will have under the skirt?

This. 5+ weeks is not "soon" in my book.
