The rear end is what i really...can not take in. Competition or not, it looks too wide for my taste.

I am considering a M2 for my next car, all the teams i have visited at Nürburgring are recommending them instead of the 1M for an "everyday car", no tuning issues, no heating issues "get in and drive" but too many driver aids if you ask me.

However, there is a rumor that BMW sent out an internal memo, requesting that dealerships to cut open oil filters on the M2, M3 and M4 during oil changes and inspect for metal particles. Apparently there MAYBE the classic M rod bearing issues, as far as i know no solid proof of such a case, but everyone is on their toes checking.
I drove mine, and I drove it hard. Every single time I pulled from the garage the car was put thru it's paces. 16k miles in the almost two years I owned. Did three Blackstone reports and everything came back great. The N55 has been solid for some time now. But you never know.

You can find an M2 now at good prices but they are still up there. It is a great car for daily and weekend fun if you are looking to have a capable weekend track car in your daily I mean.
