- The BMW M2 was my favorite modern BMW ever made. However the newest on is a little bit bigger, heavier, and well...might not look the best for everybody. So let's talk about it.

Oh hell no.
I know you gotta have sponsers but these betting apps are notoriously bad
@@davect01money is money, let him get his bread
It's incredible how BMW made a car that is both over & under styled
It’s incredible that bmw brought back scion tc and threw an M badge on it
@@Bmwstephenbut scion TC is a great car tho, as a bmw owner and enthusiast
Driving the new M2 the best way I can describe it is the love child of an American muscle car and a 718 Cayman. I was blown away by how nice these cars are!
That sounds insane 🔥
I really appreciate the low poly model that they shipped this year. Maybe we can get the high Res version next year!?
Gotta pay the subscription fee for the high res
I actually kinda like this year's M2. Not a fan of the M3 and M4, they both look huge and really don't like the giant kidney grilles.
2024 M240i* 😅
You would think the previous M2 is the newer one if you looked at both...
Nah , the older m2 looks mad ugly tbh this is the first m2 that looks good to me .
@@sirspeedsalot You have garbage taste then. You probably think the Pontiac Aztec looks good too
@@sirspeedsalot You're definitely in the minority lol
I like G87 looks , and it's amazing all-rounder
@@sirspeedsalot yeah..... I think thats just you
Loved this car from the second I first saw it. I wish the M2 came in Thundernight Metallic like the M240i.
Such a sexy color
I agree, I’d wrap it in TM the next day if got one
It’s giving dodge magnum vibes 😂😂😂
You're giving me PTSD.
😂😂😂
Looks like a straight up box
In person they’re killer
Hey at least it doesn’t have the M3’s beaver teeth.
so everyone screaming "just make it like the E30" is complaining that...its like the E30?
So did the E30 M3

This car and the M3/M4 will be looked back as BMW's "fried egg" era of design.
Someone has clearly dated themselves, that milestone has come and gone with the Chris Bangle-era BMW.
@@ExileXCross Design is cyclical and not linear, which is the reason why history repeats itself.
ICE is going away, no "looking back on"
That's an insult to fried eggs 😂
Saw this in the press release awhile back, and there was a certain angle that made it look like the last generation Scion TC and I cant unsee it.
At least it seems like a blast to drive.
Yoooo your not wrong 😂
I had a 2019 M2C with a 6 speed. Loved it. Such a beast. Was really looking forward to the new one until it was announced.. couldn't do it. Went with a 981 GTS instead and didn't look back.
Amazing choice
Pretty bold of BMW to make a new Scion TC
i cant unsee it now
Most people talking about looks haven’t seen this in person . We all did the same thing to the g80. Now people accept it . Honestly I like the m2s current look . Obviously the prior m2 8/ beautiful, but this is far more capable . Just wish it didn’t gain so much weight
Yea we’ve accepted it like a mole on your body… it’s ugly but you have no choice lol
Front bumper has a aftermarket look to it
Even the headlights look aftermarket.
Mandella effect. You're thinking of the BIG SNIFF fix which was a aftermarket bumper.
I like the look tbh.
Picked up one of these a couple weeks ago.bim loving it. It's like I'm shallow Hal. I like the look. It doesn't look like other cars. It doesn't need to be the same formula as the e46 or any other generation. If you want one of those or an e92?. Buy one of them while you still can. Had one of each. They're great cars, but I've moved on. What it lacks in feel it makes up for in raw power and modern comfort.
This car looks interesting and unique, and the past 20 years of previous BMWs (with the exception of the i8 and i3) were utterly boring to look at, fight me. Congratulations BMW, you finally made a non-hybrid that doesn't look like a Camry with a mustache! Good for you. Still would rather avoid BMWs because I don't trust their long-term reliability at all, but this is the most appealing thing they've made in decades IMO.
Unpopular opinion, I actually like the “new” M2 and don’t hate the design.
The “new” G80 M2s biggest problem however, is that the last, the “old” M2 was so good and truly beautiful in my humble opinion.
I’m a big fan of the styling. Reminds me of my 325is e30.
I was looking at getting one of the previous M2's but ended up getting another Terminator Cobra again
The bolted on widescreen display on the dash is lazy design. The previous generation F series had a much nicer and more integrated dash. It's even worse in the X series because it's bigger. Hate the lack of physical buttons. I own a couple of BMW's and seriously thinking about ditching the brand because the design is so poor. Love the manual though.
You DO NOT have to be parked to change those settings. The controls are easy to figure out in no time
The M240i looks a LOT nicer in my opinion, I'm not into the blockiness of the M2 personally.
At least the kept the grill small
Exterior kind of looks like a WRX.
Using the screen to control everything is a trend that needs to die. I can get a ticket for using my phone but now they want us to touch a screen and go through multiple menus to do the most simple of things
Amazing performance, but yeesh...the styling. Referencing the Lego blocks is the perfect characterization! 😀 Thanks for posting!
I genuienly love the new m2.
Your titles always have a negative spin on them. I get it, a negative title will get more clicks but it’s disheartening, especially when you are such a positive legit guy. Instead of saying “does the manual
BMW M2 actually suck?”
Lego front bumper 😂 that said I like BMW. But the M4 GT3 is pretty much the only modern BMW I actually really like. That and the M8 GTE
Ok David good question for you would you rather get a Cadillac CT5 V Blackwing or a BMW M2 Comp ?
I love it honestly. Loved it since day 1. I want one
I thing the purpose of the exterior design is to make it look a little retro which I think looks cool
At least it looks way better then the new m4 and up
I really like how this car looks
I had fun in the one I reviewed. The 6 speed was a little meh but hella fun!
I like this M2 because the design reminds me of the E36
You don't need to stop to go into sport mode. Just program whatever you want to the M1 M2 buttons and you can switch to them at any time.
Need to see you drive a tuned m340 on the channel
I’ve had a new 230i for a year now. Great car, and with O to 50 in fiveish seconds, it’s kept me out of jail.
These Dashboards with Superglued screens on them look like the Interior designers DGAF at all....Makes the whole overall dashboard look horrible...especially on a Bimmer....
The previous M2 Comp was DOPE!..
Saw one recently and that rear end is a SHELF.
Is it awd yet?
Just bought an F87 M2 competition. Worth the penny though the new one was not too bad. It's good but it feels still heavier like you're driving a camaro or muscle car more than a lightweight car.
Not too bad? Lol it shits on the f87
@@blackfish4674 it’s better performance wise in modding and straight line speed but it still feels like a heavy car compared to the old car. But it’s my opinion
changing AC on the new BMW screen is one button press to get to menu (it's fine, definitely the least offensive of new car screens imo)
I own this car and have 16,000 miles on it. iDrive 8 is best infotainment on the market. It is so well thought out, so easy to use, is fast and looks amazing. I get compliments on my car almost every day. People love it in real life. Since everyone in the internet is a sheep, it is the contrary.
It looks fantastic in real life. I can’t wait to get mine next year!
i got my 2017 m2, and yeah people love it and I love it. Looking sharp, going fast. I'm using daily its so chill.
Compared to an Emira it looks really bad, and yes I've seen one in person
@@fzr1000981 cool story
@asthecrowflies1201 reality....the M2 is a relatively good value but lines are fugly and only the blind deny it
crazy how the true elephant in the room wasn't addressed, the weight. the thing is a boat compared to the last gen and just a few pounds shy of the m3/m4. You can feel it.
That’s great man 👍👍 nice
As an E36 owner, hearing this car described as a box is laughable 😂
The f87 m2 is the best looking modern bmw. Since the e92 m3.
If money wasn't an issue I'd put the g87 m2 drivetrain in the f82 that would be sick.
f80 is the best looking wym
@cowboi9042 f80 is a sedan 3 series so it's automatically ugly. Sedans are for 5 or 7 series. Nothing else.
@@imSchwaggy i happen to like the m3 sedan it has character, the coupe may be a bit better tho
While I don't like the boxy design that much this is the m car I would go for
I love the looks of the g80 but the new m2 is just fine for me, yesterday I saw one and it’s just a bit too bulky for me
i dont like bmw but i really like the way this one looks idk y id like to own one eventually
Great video. Thanks man
So apparently I’m the only guy who think it looks fricken amazing. Reminds me of the show Nascar Racers
I'm right there with you , this is the first m2 that I actually find attractive, the previous ones look horrible to me so I always preferred the m4 . Until now , this thing is sexy.
I really like the m2 especially the new one ofc I love the last one it is and has been a great car while I think that people shit on it it’s not deserved it is a cool ass car it is the car I want to buy because it’s kinda cheap in Mexico(it is built and designed here) abt $90,000usd or $1.6million pesos
The original M2 with the tuned 340i engine is my favorite. The sound and the feeling are the best
You mean the N55? I own this M2 and i can confirm, it’s great!
@@gedam131 yeah not the S55 motor, if only people knew you can get a 340i M package and then get a stage 2 Dinan Tune and some better shocks and you got yourself an M2 Sedan but better
Modern car makers are sadly stuck thinking these screens are nice or cool. They suck so bad and they are gonna date the cars like hell in a few years
I was like, "no way it looks like a Scion Tc". *googles scion tc*. "....oh". Funny cause I drove a 2nd gen tc for 7 years and when i first saw these cars, I fell in love with the styling....makes sense.
Also funny, i saw this car on my way to work before seeing this video...ya know....wealthy college students.
wait, am i crazy or was the thumbnail originally the blue 2022 model?
I think the new m2 is actually badass you guys will wish you bought one someday
You can already see some admitting the looks growing on them. I have been in the car scene for 30 years and rarely do people like the new models, then lo and behold after a while after the new model comes out "the last model was so much better". This happens all the time especially with BMWs and Audi's.
Honestly, getting the base M2 for around $65k is a bargain in my opinion. Probably the best car in the range for 450 HP. And it’s an M car.
Its the E30 reincarnated. Same boxiness same flares. Looks way more like an E30 than the last gen M2
2:50 the m3 and m4 are also manual
I mean I love it but its also my dream car so I may be a bit biased.
Do the dealers let you test drive these?
I don’t think it looks awful especially in the blue. What is horrible is the interior ergonomics
I've seen a few in person now and in different colors........ it's just not a good looking car. I don't understand how people buy so many of these new cars with how terrible so many designs are these days. Performance wise doesn't even matter to me if a car is that ugly
Idk it ĥonestly looks stunning to me. Very retro cool
Like most cars if you lower it with a front lip it’s looks much better
Looks like a Scion TC my 10 yr old self would build in Midnight Club 3 😂
It’s an engineering marvel that they got the M2 to weigh the same as the Mustang GT. Lol
Audi from the side, Scion from back, magnum in front
I'm sure it performs well. just looks a bit odd.
Car looks amazing a modern version of the e30. The color blue that seems to be on all the press cars and all the ones I see for sale I’m not a fan of
The baby blue color is subjective. But I would slap this on a 2013 GT86 & the new GR86
A tasteful lip kit on the front and these things look mint, but i think they need an aftermarket tailights
Is nobody talking about that grabby clutch?
The new m2 has the snachiest clutch ever
You know what’s cooler than this? The ranger raptor
If it was a few hundred pounds lighter a bit smaller and somehow added variable awd at same price point or more id over look its bizarre styling and buy it immediatly
Glad bmw is still making manuals but tbh the manual isn’t good and I can see why somebody would go for a automatic. Still a really good and fun car tho overall.
"the looks have grown on me" is TH-cam code for, this thing is hideous but I have to be nice 🙂
the automatic one sucks too. my 2023 m40i xdrive is bone stock with no tune, just 3 gallons of e85 and i destroy the automatic m2 in dig race and from a roll. my neighbor has the m2 and i got the m40i. the m240i is lighter, stops in shorter distance and acclerates like the m2 wishes it could with a tune.
I just can't with the front bumper there's literal squares😂... Looks like a child is heading that department
Take one home: m2 or dark horse?
This car o my looks good in black
Bosnian Ape Society was right. The next one is going to be a boulder with a rondel crudely carved on the front. MSRP $150k (market adjustments may apply). Sign up now for your 30 year car mortgage with BMW Financial Services today!
I literally hate the giant hitler stache grills on f80s but GOD THE BOXY M2 JUST LOOKS AND FEELS SO SEXY I shivered when I first looked at it this car is worth buying post depreciation it will 10000000% be a collector car for it unique styling and ass clenching preformance with a third pedal.
I love the new M2 the look really grew on me especially lowered on nice wheels The issue with the new M2 is the weight and the price
The price seems pretty great to me which is why I was thinking of getting one. I wanted the m8 comp but this is like half the price so I might get the m2 for now then trade it in after I've beat the shit out of it for a couple years .
@@sirspeedsalot if u can get one for MSRP why not but at one point I saw them going for damn near 100k
Price wise its the fastest car for less than 70k
So, I heard Uhaul bought BMW and redesigned the M2….
I’m sure this car can run circles around the previous gen M2 but man was that car gorgeous compared to this thing (emphasis on thing)
I love the new m2
Shameful bmw designers
Idk about that grill
Its like BMW is putting more effort into their engines than their design language.
What they did to the looks of the M3, 4 and 2 are a travesty. Idc about the power plants, but damn they looked so good in the previous gen.
Perfect Timing is ironic
And it'll be lucky to last 100,000 miles...looks sick though
It's funny. The M2 kinda looks like a modern continuation of the Pontiac Trans Am
I want to disagree with this but I can't😅
The design language has way more personality than the rest of their coupes and sedan.
It also feels JDMish (?) with its body kit so I get why a lot of folk do not like it
Why did you change the thumbnail to red 😂
For real lol
Better engagement
Light? Isn’t the new M2 like 3700 lbs???
Yeah thats what im saying... Must be light for bmws now. 3000 lbs now is "light"
Just single turbo the g87 and let it ripp!!
I'm desperate. I don't even care what they do to their cars, as long as they continue to offer gasoline-powered manual cars.
Its just got a face only a mother could love
