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
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
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?
Thank you so much for this amazing video! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
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
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.
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…
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!
Sold my F87 for a G42 240i…biggest regret of my life 😅
Faster not "Funner"
Why
b58 hype fooled you 😂
😬
OG M2 all the way ❤
F87 all day
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
Absolutely love these vids keep it up mate

M2 og ftw ❤️
I went with a Manual M2C…. And I’m glad I did!
Good choice!
Fabulous video. The M4 is looking insane.
Thanks a ton!
M2 happily
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

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

I’d take the f82 & the murdered out vibe looks hard, I’m looking forward to the seeing more mods!!
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..
How do you get over speed bumps with the splitter that low?
Sideways

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 💰
Are those oem ikon lights on the m2?
I love it when a fast car can switch between loud nuisance mode And quiet/responsible family man mode. Lol
It’s the best!
I’ve always wondered if the replica icons are any good and what did you have to do to make them work

OG M2 🔥
Both cars look tough👀👀👀
Manual M2 any day.
F87 👌
Own(ed) both
M4 F82💎🎯
My manual OG M2 puts down 540whp, it's a little handful 😂
🫣
M2C > M4 > M2
Good choice
f82 vs m2c?
F82
@dyhoevt I want a comparison video.
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.

S55 crap
The f82 and f87 are almost identical weights in competition form
