It must be a German thing to make the top sport model hideous, garish ie cartoonishly over styled. M2, GT3, GT4 RS.... Yuck. Go buy the M240, or 718 GTS4 and stop pretending you're on a racing track in heavy traffic. Rage over. Said by a guy who has to constantly brake to let the morons in these cars swoop by me because they can't judge that there's no opening in front of me. Thanks for the video though Marek! 😜
This was my first video of your work. All the references to excrement really was a turn off; immature. I’m off to better content creators.Not impressed.
It doesn't drive like shit at all, this 'review' is literally the only one of hundreds that has that opinion. All the other reviews praise it's driving ability.
Decided on a new m2 that will be delivered next week. It is a track weapon but I will daily for the time being. Although carbon seats are amazing for a daily use sports seats are way better and also offer heating
Nice reviewing style! But I'd have to completely disregard this review as you clearly can't handle driving a car with this power, making it impossible to give a proper perspective on it. There are 10 levels of configuration to the traction control system making it customisable for different levels of driving ability
I watched nearly every test or opinion video about the M2. This is by far the one with the most negative opinions. I can’t imagine why to be honest. In the most videos people said BMW managed to make a good traction control and DSC, so that you must not be a expert to handle the cars power, like it was at the older M2.
As I said in the review, my experience was on rather used up tires, and mostly in the wet. The rear was braking traction even in regular driving mode at 60-70% throttle. Yes, adjustable DTC is great. You can see it at work when I drive off from my filming location, and the back is out ever so slightly (this is about 5/10 on the DTC scale). However you can also see how I'm fighting at the wheel to keep the car in the straight line, when I'm in sport or sport plus mode. I'm sure it's great on fresh tires, and in the dry.
ISA! Tell me about it when my GPS Android based navigator insists I am driving beyond the 50 km/h speed limit when in reality I am in a 120 km/h highway.
As usual u r spot on. V good review and fair opinion making. I think the money are better used elsewhere 4 a 2nd car, from the third on the lucky ones can allow love to steer waller.
Hey Thanks for the nice video as usual need little support if you can share the security company that help with not stealing the car signals from remote I am trying to search in old video but I can't find it if you please can share again 😊
Marek, really enjoying your reviews mate! Is it true that this 2 Series is based on the 3/4 Series platform? Also did I get it right that the bash is made from hard plastic!?
It's a RWD platform, which needs to accommodate a longitudinally mounted inline 6-cylinder engine (unlike the transversely mounted inline 4-cylinder engines on the FWD UKL2 platform used for 1, X1, X2, 2 Series Active Tourer and MINI). I can't find the exact information about the platform, but taking into account how big the M2 is, I'd say it's a modified 3 Series platform. I don't recall talking about the dash at all.
I understand why M car reviews don’t get views. I always skip BMW M and Mercedes AMG reviews (with exceptions). It’s just boring. The same thing over and over for the last 40+ years.
Well thats just not true. This car has been out for years. When it first came out it had millions of views. Now everyone knows everything about it and their is no point of going thru the whole spill again.
M2 g87 is the best M car that BMW was made. It is impresionant ❤️
The grill looks like that of a Pontiac Trans Am Firebird from the 1970/80's
Interesting comparison. I guess it does look like it a bit.
I wanted to write this but just saw your comment
and yeah exactly Trans Am front
Just googled images of both to compare.
Look nothing like each other, completely different.
@@DjNikGnashers can you send me your email address to show you?
I got a photo but cannot share it here in RUclips

ISA isn’t a thing in the u.s. spec. Thankfully.
Great review. Is that engine mercedes made? I know some of their smaller engines are Stellantis engines, I believe? You enjoyed that drive.
Wait, 9:07 Chrysler 200 in Poland? I didn't know they sold them there??
Hawk Eye! :)
Private import I guess.
Weird green-screen intro 🤔
No, it's just dark in autumn, and I'm in the foreground lit up like a Chistmas tree.

I fail to see the point of a car that drives like sh!t on public roads and has nothing else to offer than traffic light wankerage.
Try to watch other test videos, that will change your mind…
@takuan650 traffic light wankerage ❤️

A friend owned one. He was a nervous wreck most of the time.
Sounds about right :)
lol! sounds like your friend doesn’t know how to drive a proper sports car 😂
These cars are bonkers, I have one coming in May. I test drove one and was like what the hell did bmw do lol. So I ordered one that day hahhahahaa
I ordered a manual one next to my X5. The G87 being a shorter cheaper M4 really appealed. For example, the lease rate is half of the M4 here.
Where's here?
@@MarekDrivesENG Switzerland, sorry!
I think it looks fantastic.
Not as nice as the OG M2 of course, but I am slightly biased as I own one.

I’ve never understood why BMW M cars need a baboon rear silencer

looking forward to my 2024 automatic when it arrives. a weekend toy handled with great respect
Have fun!

I dont know, i dont find that car pretty by any means. The front, especially in that red colour looks kind of ugly to me.
"not significantly better then the 1m coupe" your joking right. dafuq lol
i plan on having fun with my 2024, not driving it like a maniac
Front end looks like a BMW 1m coupe copy from BeamNG

Great review, too much in all ways and scary too, will stick with my Z4 M40I ;-)
Enjoy it

Car wow got this to do a 3.8 sec 0-60
Must have been that one day of the year in the UK, when it's not raining 🤣

@alliejr I wish you were wrong, but you're not.

These are the only ones I watch tbh (M AMG RS Porsches)
