They give you the perfect spec, black with gold wheels. Just missing the manual.
And an aftermarket exhaust :)
That’s not a spec. That’s a mod bro
One of the last good manual cars to be sold...
Seriously the best car videography on YT. Colour correction, cinematics and sheer creativity are all on another level. You're the man, Luke. Keep up the incredible work.
so sick right! Defo taking notes!
Those introductions to the video are always insane from you. And the filming is impresive. Keep up the great work!!!
Seriously the best car videography on YT.
I wonder why Luke doesn’t imagine himself with Bimmer, he’s a Porsche geek meaning he loves true drivers cars. I’ve found Porsche lovers are also BMW lovers.
I agree, after this I'm still thinking to get one now
No matter what, I love your video thumbnails :)
Mmm.... SOAM bhai getting some inspiration.
Laura seems kind of cute 💯
“Show off” haha loved that.
I love where you bring the car, always in the perfect place, perfect time 👏👏👏
Excellent video man. I just didn’t know where to focus anymore, on the car review or the breathtaking landscapes you were driving through. The CS is gonna become a classic, that’s for sure. Thanks fir the review.
From a cinematography stand point you simply are the best car channel on youtube, truly inspirational!!! Keep it up
Amazing cinematography as usual, and my dream car! Doesn’t get much better. Great video!
Again and again, love the shots and vid.
Perfect combo keep doing your great work!!
Cheers :-)
I adore my M2 Competition. I have owned 911’s for 30 years. I traded my last C4S in for my M2C. The M2C is better balanced and just more fun. It’s a different animal and more of a hooligan performance car that is stupid fast/fun and a track superstar. On the street, the 6 piston front/ 4 piston rear brakes are over kill. It grabs so hard with just a toe touch. BMW did everything right with the Competition/CS. Honestly, most will never be good enough to drive the M2C to its full potential. Forget any price range, I have driven them all and IMO, the M2C/CS is THE best modern M car BMW makes. It’s the right size and has more soul. It saddens me to say this but considering what BMW did to the new M3/M4, BMW can only screw up the next gen M2C. The current one is that exceptional. My advise is find one now as it is already a super star. Years from now it will be a legend.
How do you afford all these cars 😮
@@mattdavenport7596 Excelled in college, worked very hard and with a little talent owned my own company at a young age. Work and personal/financial discipline pays off later in life.
I had the same experience years ago with a BWW 335 coupe, absolute little rocket!
Moved to Zurich almost 5 years ago, and for almost 3 years now, this is my favourite car review youtube channel. Also I can say, honestly, that is my favourite "what to visit next in Switzerland" channel as well, even though, I usually go on this roads with a much lesser car, the 328i F30. Keep up the great content you are making Luke!
Exactly, he's a great guy. Also very down to earth, comparing to the other reviewers in business.
The 328i is great
Amazing video! It’s almost like art 👌🏻
Absolutely love the looks, they didn’t go over the top with it. The M2 comp is the sweet spot though, way better value for money
She should install some Recaro sportster cs seats, will change the feeling of the car and make the interior feel more premium. And maybe a darker tint on the rear windows 👍
Great to see you so excited Luke 😉
Haha thanks mate!
Tha locations u have to shot review of cars and cars u review are pretty much awesome
and there are sooo many more around that area ;)
This video is deeply satisfying 😝. When you replied to my comment on a previous video that you hadn’t driven one yet, I knew you were going to love it! I went from a 2018 M2 that I loved, to a ‘20 M2C that I absolutely love. I was offered an M2CS, and the only reason I turned it down was because I like to personalize my cars. The second I modify a CS, the value of the car disappears since it’s a very limited production.
Hope to see you on Swiss roads next summer in an M2C/CS! 🤙🏻
Re-watching this vid for like 10th time already... Can't get enough of it. I own '20 M2C and the car is just a blast 🔥
Totally agree with the looks of the exhaust😄
Nice video! Always great to see genuine enthusiasm for a car :)
Thanks! miss it like mad
Lovely video, lovely guest, lovely cars. always exited for new videos from luke :)
Cheers!
Always cinematic videos. ❤
This looks like a great car. From your review, it reminds me of my 2011 M3 Competition edition but with more power; I still own and love the M3. As for the M2 versus the GT4, the M2 might have more power but the total package of the GT4 (which I also own) is much more, starting with how it looks inside and out and, I suspect, the light weight feel; plus, I suspect the gear box of the M2 CS doesn't match up with the GT4. Unless something has changed, BMW gear boxes are very good, but not great. Also, the GT4 is NA, not turbo, so it will likely be more durable and capable of being run hard for longer. I've been told that the M4 engine is great but the heat and compression generated by the turbos take their toll over time. But, when the M3 dies, the M2 CS sounds like a great replacement! Fun review. Nice job. Thanks!
i actually love the colours in this video, taking notes!
blonde girls m2 sounds insane, gotta love akrapovic (and downpipes^^)
💯💯
Liking the light gold wheels, nice touch.
Yeah its cool, just missing some drum n bass.
Innit
Stunning as always🤩
Never really liked an m2 but when i saw my neighbours 2020 m2 comp with akrapovic exhaust im just amazed with it,the sound it makes its amazing,
M2 CS has won me over
She really added to the cinematography and the video was very fun. Congrats!!
Dear God, yours cars footage is just outstanding 🤩
Nailed it again Luke with this extremely well edited video.
Lovely car.👌
PS: She’s a keeper.😉
Im in love with this car😍
Aaah, Amazing video, as always! 😍 I hope BMW sees this and they supply you with one like they did with shmee :)
This channel deserves 2M subs, another amazing video
Cheers!
M2 CS is my 'realistic' dream car and the perfect modern M car in many ways - right size/weight, right power, and the right looks (in my eyes). Great video too, would love to see an M2 feature more!
The M2CS weighs the same as the M2C. It's overpriced for the little carbon cosmetics you get. Engines are the same, M2CS simply has an M4C retune, but same torque as M2C.
This guy is the biggest troll ever ... what do u care so much about the cs? Go enjoy your comp instead of trying to put down the cs... damm u salty
Epic video...Love the CS
Fantastic editing, perfect LUT’s and whole storyline also great.
Cheers!
100% agree - the colours were amazing in this video and the fall scenery was beautiful. Great job Luke!
Great video genuine enthusiasm for spirited driving 👍
Appreciate it 🤙
Ohhhh, Luke being savage and all. Love the content bro
Hahah thanks man 🤘🏻
I know this will a good video 😁
I love both cars. M2 LCi and M2 CS but price wise M2 with a downpipe and tune, a cf splitter and a coilover set: 2/3 of the price and will sound better, perform better.
Yes but what will value of modified version be worth in 5 years time.
great video
Put a smile on my face everytime.
GREAT production man!
Cheers
🥳🥳 the day has come! Luke your going to pop your bmw cherry my friend, I'm sure.. M2cs is coming to the channel 😁 personally I would spec it the special m2 blue colour (I don't remember what its called though) black looks amazing but it looks dirty after driving it for 30 seconds.
@William Crawford summed up black cars really well. I love black cars, but god damn they are already dirty again when you finished washing them. Still don‘t want another color
That blue is Misano. Same as on a Toyota Corolla and Hyundai :)
Hi guys, I think that it is Lara and the color roof of her M2 the best of the video. I also have an M2 Competition in black color too and I would be delighted in knowing a bit more from Lara and her love for cars. Thanks in advance!
Excellent content Luke🤘 you should most definitely get the BMW for the channel. We know that you'll show it's true potential......after a few mods ofcourse 😁.
Haha thanks man and I sure will! Exhaust to start with
The exposed exhaust from the rear is a huge put off like you mentioned.
looks and sounds like a handy funny car. by the way: that outro song ...booah...felt like dolby 8.1
I agreed. The GT4 drive very good, a very well balanced chassis. Although it misses the punch 🥊! But the mid engine chassis drive fantastic in the corner. An ideal weight distribution for a sport car. 🦅🦅🇺🇸 I have had many BMW and M series. BMW make a good drinking sport sedan.
I actually like the purple roof..
Love all M2's. Only BMW i like. Great video.
Same! although the new m5 cs looks promising
I've driven a lot of cars due to my job and if you ask me what's the best or better BMW M-series i'd say the M2 is the perfect car, handling wise and it's more driveable then the others M3, M4's are always to pushy.. keep up the good work man love the vids!
Brilliant video, you must buy one
Your camera work is tidy 👍🏽👍🏽
For me the best RUclipsr yet, I also went to RUclips premium to watch his videos on my smart tv without any disturbing ads!!!
The high end sports cars at a random Swiss logging barn is a great location.
Haha yes I love it there
Another scorcher of a video 👌🏻👌🏻
Small cars with biggish engines make sense. Less to drag round . Good for parking and engine under less stress.
awesome and very funny video....
if this M2 does makes you happy, then should try E46M3/M3CSL or even some Z4Mcoupe :) even if they are "old" cars
The fancy camera work and editing at the beginning is right up there man...
Thanks mate
Love your videos!! Try an e46 M3 CSL... please...
🤙🏻
Great video. M2 CS rocks!
Thanks ans yep in love!
Perfect little car 👍🏻👍🏻
Scenery is perfect with the CS, love the spec too!
Yep spec is awesome!
Love the content Luke!
I hope the 2021 m3 is like this m2
I think I will love the 2 series even when i'm old, even if i could afford a bigger car.
Salve Luke,
Der ist richtig gut und ein Fahrer Auto vom Feinsten. Super Video Qualität 👌
VG ✌😊
Danke 😊
The M2 platform is such a great starting point. And you're right. The CS is BMW's answer to the GT4.
Based on what? It has the same M2C engine, same torque and stickier tyres. The CS is just an M4C tune! And is as heavy as thr M2C thanks to adaptive suspension
Another seriously spicy intro!!! Nailed it
Haha i love a bit of spice
the m2 cs is sick but I can't get over the price, my m2 n55 with all the goodies from kw, Recaro, millway, armytrix etc costs less than half of the cs. and ill probably be upping the power to the same as the cs soon. if ur ever around near Montreux then hit me up and maybe I can convince u to start a m2 comp project car ;)
Sounds like a blast. All the 2 series, even the 228, to me are the "realest" BMW's.
The only downfall of the M2 is the seats as shown in the review, they look so old and shit
Armytrix in switzerland are you mad haha
@@Desh7x Nobody says Armytrix ;-) you even see the brand.
Hey man, random question. How do you like Montreux? Is it a good place to study French? I'm thinking of moving there 6 months to study
I have just fallen ln love with this channel ...❤️❤️
Cracking vid mate! Always love M2 content.
Interesting final comment - I think for me, currently owning an M2c.... i'd want a GT4 rather than a CS 🤪🤪
I love the purple roof. 2💖
The m2 competition sounds crazy
Great Video!
Mega cool und dann noch vu Züri 😍😍
:-)
Hey Luke, not sure if you’d know but where did Laura get her spacers from? I have a Merc CLS Shooting Brake and have been looking for top quality swiss homologated spacers for a while. Any reputable retailers you / she could recommend? The closer to Geneva the better. Thanks in advance.
Anton
03:32 the moment you know you're friends with the right people :D
Nice footage, as always 👍🏾...I'm a little bit disappointed from the Miss feedback: I was expecting more than "yes, I prefer the CS.." 😫..
Winter is coming..what's your plans?
MY DREAM CAR ❤️
Nice cars, shame about not having a proper 6 speed manual. I'll stick with my 1M any day, for looks & rarity.
Bmw have been strangely so hit and miss the last few years, particularly this year with the god awful front grill on The M4. The M2 CS/competition have been some of their best cars since they made the 1 series M which was an incredible drivers car, a lot like there old E36/E46 M3's
Yep totally agree hence why I never filmed them but this is finally just right!
I'm not a BMW fan at all, but if I had to have one, it would be the M2. The CS looks impressive, more so the exterior. (In fact, I think it looks better than a C63 coupe!) I think it's also the last good looking BMW made today :-p Agreed with the exhaust, maybe BMW _wants_ people to change it?! :D
You should definitely get one
Bought my m235i last year for 18k with high miles and it's been amazing.
Heard lots of good things about that car!
About feel the drive, which one GR Yaris or this M2 you think is better for u?
Hi Luke, what would you prefer, this one the m2 cs or an alfa romeo gulia?
Sounds like the 1 M has finally found a proper successor!
Whatever video I watch with the M2 CS, the driver just smiles and absolutely enjoys it. BMW just did it, the M2C got even better. Cheers and thank you for the great video Luke!
How did M2 CS get better? Same weight as M2C. Harsher ride despite adaptive suspension. It's just an M4C retune with stickier tyres, which you can easily add to an M2C.
@@nessuno5403 Carbon roof and hood. Plus its not a simple 'tune'. I don't really get your point, tho. You can tune a GTI to make it a R, or a M5 to make it to a Competition.
Doesn't change the fact that it's a way better car straight out the manufacture.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the M2C, but the M2 CS is almost 10 seconds faster on the Nurburgring, which is insane.
@@Autovolution I agree only on the fact that it has factory status. But it's complete marketing rubbish. You can make a Golf GTI as powerful as an R, but they are different drivetrains (FWD vs AWD). M2C and CS are the SAME. If it was GTS-spec (with engine hardware changes) I would value the CS more, but power-wise it's just the M4C tune - torque remains the same as M2C. The M2C has an M Performance hood option also. That of the M2CS has a vent, but that's useless (look at the track M2 CS Racing and it has an M2C hood instead!). The carbon roof (with mismatch and poorly quality carbon inlay) is integrated yes, but a carbon version was also an M Performance factory option on M2C (see link below). The faster lap times are largely thanks to stickier tyres; again, put the M4C tune in an M2C and it may be as fast or faster because it doesn't have the heavy adaptive suspension (again, the track M2 CS Racing has standard suspension like the M2C!). Overall, the M2CS is an overpriced marketing exercise like M3/M4CS that didn't sell well. With all that carbon, they failed to deliver a CSL spec too. www.bmw-m.com/en/topics/magazine-article-pool/bmw-m2-competition-performance-parts.html
@@nessuno5403 You are right, it's definitely all marketing.
In the end, the M2 CS is, what the M2C should've been from the start on.
But that's also the reason why I love the M2 CS, because it finally gives the M2 in general the recognition it deserves!
@@Autovolution if you explain it that way, no disagreement :) I wish they did more... there's even carbon front fenders they could have used!
Can you tell me your opinion for the r53 Mini Cooper s?
I considered a lot of other cars before buying my M2 CS... and I may still pick up a 2024 Vet or GT4 or a low mileage R8, but none of the many cars I looked at will give me the performance AND the utility of the M2 CS. The trunk is massive compared with the space offered by any of the other cars. The GT4 is the closest in cargo space and it's a long way away by more than half.
If you want to make a descent grocery run or take a trip of more than an overnight or two, only the M2 will do. If you want to take a week or two out of town with the GF or wife, you're not doing it in any of the other cars I considered.
And, even though it's a "sedan" it has a magnetic effect on the eyes of the public. I bought mine in Boston, MA and drove it to DC. Every 10-20 miles someone would come zooming up through traffic to wave and give me the high sign. And I don't even have the standout blue paint... I had to settle for white. Yet it still catches peoples eyes. My wife doesn't know cars at all, but when I pulled in and she came out, she was wide eyed. "That's one sexy car!" was her first impression. "It's got hips like a woman!" was her next.
I was a little late to the party as it were because I bought mine used in late 2023 with just over 4K miles on the odometer and only one previous owner. I chased 3 and missed before I locked this one down... it was like all of a sudden there was a resurgence of interest and the few low mileage specimens available were in high demand. No surprise to be sure. One guy beat me with a deposit by ten minutes.
If you can find one, expect to pay over the original sticker price, even if the car has 15K -20K miles on it. I paid 2K over sticker and was shocked that they didn't demand more. There were several examples with higher miles selling for more at the time.
How do I feel about my M2CS? It reminds my of a bumper sticker about gun rights... you'll have to pry the fob from my cold dead fingers! I'm planning to keep this car for decades. This is one of those cars that if you're fortunate enough to get one, you don't let it go. I'm not going to mod it. It doesn't need it and it will be worth more in original condition. Only 564 of these bad boys were made in 2020 and only for that one year. Half were 6 speed manuals and half were 7 speed DCT automatics. A lot of them were stripped and raced. Many have been crashed and totaled. So, they are rapidly approaching unicorn status.
Masterpiece ❤️
Trust yourself
Your purple roof is brilliant
