I used to own an f87 m2 comp, and currently in a G series M4, and although the M4 is much faster, I miss the M2C immensely because it was so much more fun. The G series is a MUCH better daily, but it’s less hilarious, more serious
I'm an F82 owner and love the car and puts a smile on my face every time I drive it but the traction in anything other than bone dry roads can be an issue even with Michelin PS4S tyres. The stock 444bhp is more than enough so unless you just love tinkering with your car or you're going to track it, my advice would be don't waste your money tuning it especially with our gridlocked roads because you'll hardly ever be able to enjoy it. I'd say the exhaust is probably money well spent though. The interior in a standard M4 doesn't feel that special either, you really need the extended leather on doors and dash to make it feel more upmarket. The new G82 is light years ahead in terms of materials and build and likewise the F82 is a similar step up from the F87. All great cars though and I'd be happy to take any of them home.
If you have the traction control on or in the "MDM" mode then it flashes and cuts power so much that you feel like the car must have very little traction. In reality when you turn TC fully off you would be amazed how much grip it has and how overkill the TC is, especially in the dry. I actually wanted it to be way more playful under throttle. I mean yeah if its soaking wet and you absolutely floor the throttle from a stand still or at a very low speed while turning a lot then it will start spinning the wheels up but so will any vaguely powerful car
having owned both, I much prefer my OG M2 (maybe that's partly cos its manual and the M4 was DCT). You had to do such silly speeds in the M4 to even feel like you were going fast, and it sounded awful even with an expensive exhaust on it
OG M2 everytime for me They are awesome out the box in every aspect…. Sound awesome Perfect amount of performance for a fast road car. Immensely fun. Only upgrade we’ve done is fitted a pair of M2 comp seats 👌 Those rear hips on the the M2 🤤 M4 just doesn’t do it for me in the looks department
If I was a track slag I'd rather have an F87. But I like being in a nice car day to day, and the inside of my F83 with extended opal leather, leather dash, HK the lot, is just nicer than any 2 series. Even a G87
So sport cat downpipes but no secondary cats. Isn’t that an MOT failure? I want to get equal length mid pipes but I’ve been told it will fail the MOT as the secondary cats have gone?
OE Ikons will be less of a potential headache down the road. Not sure what brand you've been looking at but I've gone with Bayoptiks twice now, on my 335i and my M235i. To me they look even better than the Ikons if you opt for the blacked-out housing. Why I say it's less of a headache is because the plug they used for the switchback ring turn signals, which is an option, wasn't water sealed very well and did corrode. And when I had an accident and had to replace one, I found out after receiving the new headlight that they had changed the LEDs they use. Hard to notice unless you're really looking for it, but the new headlight's DRLs are a bit brighter. Never had someone notice before I mention it though.
As a biased OG M2 owner, there is no debate the s55 is the better engine and m4 wins in that regards. The OG M2 looks way better than the M4 and Stage 2 is plenty of power for the streets and more than enough to send you to jail in a few seconds. The M2c is the best of both worlds if your budget can go a little further.
The better car is objectively the G87 M2. Subjectively, more owners, prospective owners, and fans of the M2, seem to like the F87 M2 more over the G87. This mostly comes down to its exterior looks, of which I agree that the G87 M2 looks horrible. It’s the rear end for me. It’s just very bad looking and almost looks like an afterthought from a room full of drunk 21 year old designers…
Hey Bro, did you touch your low pressure fuel pump. To make those numbers? I have my upgraded high pressure fuel pump and pure stage 2 turbo installed.
@@kennethnmn my friend has gone pure stage 2 and he needed to upgrade the Low pressure FP so likely yes mate. AREEVE tuning may have some info on this as he got it done with them.

OG M2 is just such a gem. BMW smashed it. Looks, sound, performance, everything. I still want one.
I bought a 2018 m4 comp a few month back and I absolutely love it! Moving from a 4 series 2.0 diesel it feels like a rocket ship
Congrats bro, big upgrade!
Bet it feels like it’s on rocket fuel aswell, the different in petrol money 😂 I got a 520d and I want an m4 at some point
@@Jjm2024-u3t yeah I fill up and it’s £85-90 for a tank. Only get 340-360 miles roughly. Sickener
@ what about mpg? My 520 gets about 48-52 mixed driving
@@Jjm2024-u3t 19-20mpg I get
I bought an F82 M4 this year, and it was between that and an OG M2, the deciding factors for me were adaptive suspension and carbon roof as standard.
OG M2 all the way ❤
With the standard lights against the F87 there was no contest. But holy shit the F82 with the icons is incredible
Bro? 😢 it’s too clean with icons, problem is the price
Sold my F87 for a G42 240i…biggest regret of my life 😅
Faster not "Funner"
Why
b58 hype fooled you 😂
😬
@@thatpersiandude7386 B58 is legendary, its the chasis and suspension thats hella different. Also B58 is ALL the hype
F87 all day

I also have a 2020 F87 comp! Do you regret your decision? I was also considering a G82 M4!
Why didn’t you buy the much better looking g80 m3
Absolutely love these vids keep it up mate

What colour is yours?
@@Jjm2024-u3tSan Marino blue with Silverstone interior. Looks beautiful when it's clean on a sunny day.
Almost like this video was perfect for me. I’m stuck between F82 & F87. Got an M240i at the moment so I think it’s gotta be F82 M4 next
what spec is your M240i? and when would you be looking to sell?
Fabulous video. The M4 is looking insane.
Thanks a ton!
OG M2 biggest bargain around in performance world. Only dipped because of the new M2, won’t be long before they shoot up in price.
I went with a Manual M2C…. And I’m glad I did!
Good choice!

I’d take the f82 & the murdered out vibe looks hard, I’m looking forward to the seeing more mods!!
Bucket list now I want you to MOD my 2021 Kia K5 🙏🏽🙏🏽
OG M2 everytime for me
They are awesome out the box in every aspect….
Sound awesome
Perfect amount of performance for a fast road car.
Immensely fun.
Only upgrade we’ve done is fitted a pair of M2 comp seats 👌
Those rear hips on the the M2 🤤

Would like to hear you compare them to the supra, that supra was one of the best looking cars I've ever seen ❤
Nathan here: I prefer my A90 Supra to both of these drive-wise & looks-wise. But they are another 15k+ more 💰
M2 happily
nothing piss me off more than those magnetic paddles sound
Facts I don’t understand the hype
Very satisfying to use in real life, sound pretty annoying in videos though..
So sport cat downpipes but no secondary cats.
Isn’t that an MOT failure?
I want to get equal length mid pipes but I’ve been told it will fail the MOT as the secondary cats have gone?
Aren’t the crankhubs an issue on pre 2016 S55’s? I heard that from 2016 onwards they made some improvements towards it
How do you get over speed bumps with the splitter that low?
Sideways
M2 comp is the one
Where did you get the lights from
I love it when a fast car can switch between loud nuisance mode And quiet/responsible family man mode. Lol
It’s the best!
Do you sell that splitter? on the F82
Both cars look tough👀👀👀
f82 has some power!
Are those oem ikon lights on the m2?
I’ve always wondered if the replica icons are any good and what did you have to do to make them work
Are the replica icons any good? tempted to get a set for my M235i

Surely a better comparison would be the M4 vs a M2 comp 🙄
This was from a price stand point
Best value M car is the Z4M
S55 still sounds like shit Inked customs single midpipe is the only answer
F82
Dude the M4 Is lighter than the M2 what are you talking about
S55 crap
nexen tyres lol
The f82 and f87 are almost identical weights in competition form
