Love how he mentions a bit of the vehicle's history, only car reviewer I watch regularly
Thanks for saying that Brian! I really appreciate it!
“ Let’s see what’s going on here “ … when you hear that phrase…😂😂 it’s a Joe review ❤🏆👏💯💪
You know it for sure
I enjoy how you make each car you cover exciting. True enthusiast view, pointing out things not great but still in a positive way. Exciting a person with the unique things a car has that make it great
1 Mil Subs 🎉✨️
Congrats Joe! It feels like yesterday you get 30k & now 1Mil Subs
That was Consistency, Dedication & Hardwork
Raiti's Rides always the best reviews on the internet hands down. These cars are almost impossible to find unless you order one - I have had the M2Comp for 2 years as a daily driver - Comfortable & fast - Love the car - like (and the same size as the old M3.
Thanks Bruce for taking the time to say that! I appreciate you sharing that personal experience!
Love your videos mate, being following for awhile now. Bought my M2 based on your review, loving every minute of it so far!
The Zandvoort Blue looks great to me interesting name for a color. The front BMW anniversary emblem is awesome, I like how the fender treatment is sculpted without any vent designs, the wheels are cool, definitely a sharp design. I don't mind the carbon fiber roof keep it clean save some weight. The interior is nice always have been a fan of BMW interiors. The inline 6 is powerful with crisp smooth shifts very engaging. The interior looks great and packs some goodies. The on throttle action is in your face goodness so thanks Joe and Steven for bringing us some German brand awesomeness!
great video was waiting for this,,,,had a 1988 m3 for 17 years best all around car i ever owned,,,,really like the look and now the performance,,,will have to check out,,,,,thanks joe for what you do
It looks muscular and capable, and thank goodness the grille looks more conventional.
You hit the nail on the head
Yeah but the air intake 🤢
I would just like to say thank you for spelling grille correctly.
Honestly I hate the 3 series grill
Something is off about the square look of the front….and I normally like sharp angles over soft curves
This color is so good I saw one at my local dealership and haven't forgotten about it since!
Those wheels are sick. Love the square shaped openings in the front. Different and bold of BMW to change their look. Should definitely have a sunroof.
Sunroof is additional weight in the wrong place. They gave it a carbon roof for a reason..
Definitely on the short list, and I don't know if you heard but people put this thing on a dyno and it's putting 482HP to the wheels. And the manual is only 0.3 seconds slower to 60 so I'll be watching when you get your hot hands on that bad boy!
Thanks for a great review. Still like the CT4-V. Blackwing .. Your review on that was priceless 😂
Hey Joe!!!!!! LOVE the color!!!! Thanks for all that you do man!!! EPIC content!!
You are so very welcome Seth
Love the side flares! Color amazing. Overall looks growing on me.
I know ho you feel on that one.
Dude thank you for that amazing review on that little beast I’m getting mine next year no doubts take care joe and hopefully see you someday here in Puerto Rico doing a few on throttle Ossie
That is so awesome Ossie!
God I want one! I'll be looking at one hopefully in a yr or 2. Thank you Joe for the review! Great as always
I think it looks good tbh. Thank you once again Raiti’s fam for bringing this to us 💯💯💯
You are so very welcome my friend!
It looks good because you're not buying it.
@@BTMMHACK how tf does that make any sense? Buying it or not the car still looks good to “me” lol
Bonjour. Happy Sunday, great review as always
Thank you Coach
When I swap from summer to winter wheels I always match the wheel cap positions
Happy for no sun roof!
Good looking machine, I’m glad they kept the grill for us 🤩…. Nice work Joe I love the show off Kiss 😍😄
Reminds me of an '88 M3 with those fenders. This has to be my fav sports car on the more affordable side.
They should throw that same old M3 spoiler in it and paint it red. Let’s go!
affordable .... HA !
@@Mr.Helper. blocked, bye.....
Shout out to Steven for that extra detail of making the bmw be upright lmao I appreciate it, love your videos man
Thanks Steve you’re awesome!!
Just noticed the color matching California plates to this specific car and the BMW anniversary badge. Spectacular!
Good eyes Johan!
lovely Car-- sporty. Great job as always on the video. I hope make a million subscribers soon.
we just purchased a new 2023 bmw 230i enjoying every minute of it. Just wondering if you have recieved any tickets doing your review. My wife and i have been watching your reviews for
a few years now.. We enjoy them very much .
Another great review Joe!
Power to weight ratio! This BMW M2 is amazing‼v6 twin turbo 💪💪💪👏 great review raiti...
The Go-bots damn remember them, thanks for bring back some memories! The M2 looks gorgeous stunning 6 speed manual all day.
Heck yeah!
Very nice ride I love it I would like to see you do a review on a Gla 45 AMG
Great review! I was debating on a M2 or M240i xDrive, but I after watching this I'm going with the M2!
Been looking into the new M2 recently and came across this, got so excited to recognize Patterson
Reminds me of an '88 M3 with those fenders.
Thanks for this review Joe! Need it for my next purchase🙏🏼
That sounds fantastic!
I been skipping out on all the M2 reviews waiting on you lol THANKS
Thanks for having my back!
Great review. Thanks!
You are so very welcome
Great review Rati. Love the car, hate what it does to you $$$$ wise after year 5.
When using the paddle shifters in manual mode, does it hold the gear up to the limiter or does it auto shift once you hit redline?
Great review. I just placed an order for one in Toronto Red Metallic.
3:23 "lol I hope you like square and rectangles!"
Very geometric, I really like this cars design! And yes Steven, having the logo on the wheel right side up was totally worth it and we appreciate it!
Thanks for giving Steven your feedback!
Love it! I specially love that it doesn’t have that beaver teeth grill from the m3\m4
Awesome M2!! On throttle here we go yeah! Love that engine exhaust sound.
Thanks for this one!
You are so ver welcome!
Very nice car. The front plate does not make a favor to the car, but what we can do. Excellent video. 👍
I wonder why people complain about the digital screens in the new gen s650 ford mustang but the same setup is found on most new sports cars and luxury vehicles but they say nothing about it, the funny thing is that i see most people in the comments praising the setup when its found on bmw and mercedes sports cars and many other cars but it's the opposite when it comes to the mustang
Awesome little (FAST) car…we had a 1988 5 series car, it was bullet proof…still ran like a Swiss watch with 325k miles on it. Only got rid of it as it couldn’t pass Calif smog anymore.
best car reviewer because he actually has a personality n sum flavor errbody else sound like a robot
That’s so awesome of you to say man!
Haven't been excited about a BMW since I was a kid in the 90's. This one is a beauty!
Nice color 👌🏾
As always great review and love the M2. Wondering which one to go...if M2 or M340i...
M2!! Just ordered mines today.. coming from a GTR 😬
Man I remember u had 100k subs came a long way bro
Thanks for being on the journey with me!
How do you compare this M2 to the Cadillac CT4 Blackwing?
Love the Bauhaus design queues!
Thanks for letting me share it with you!
Great review raiti's 🎉🎉
Thanks Angel!
Love it!
Joe and Lori and Steve and keep up the good work and I love the video 💯💯👍
We appreciate you so very much!
I just ordered one with a manual in Toronto Red!
I love this car!! Great review!
I’m glad that you are digging this one
Nice review keep up the good work Joe
Thanks Marcus!
ill be honest , i love the zonk informational parts. Most reviewers dont bring them up. :)
The color is great! Also, good job BMW for not using that new grill. I absolutely detest this new trend of the flat, rectangular digital driver's displays that look like they were just glued to the dash as an after though. It has no character. I say "trend" because I noticed it in the new Mustang as well.
How trade in the type r for this lol. Absolutely Beautiful car . Would love one
Gotta use your 14.9 inches. Great comment. 3 Twinkie’s in the rear was not expected.
That S58 Engine is a beast
You better believe it!
I like the color
It’s definitely pops in the sun!
@@RaitisRides lol yeah
@@wwesupermiahroblox4460 I’m glad that you like it!
@@RaitisRides 😊😊
Bmw interior looks basic without the wood.
Love the new M2 got the power. Great video.
Love this muscle BMW M2!! Stunning 😮😮😮🎉🎉 love it!!
I am glad that I could bring it to you Angel.
Almost at 1 Milli Joe! Super Proud of the team!
Thank you my friend! We really can't wait to do with you!
Great review Raiti! I bought an MK7.5 GTI and an RS3 because of your past reviews. My 2019 RS3 is now built to around 1000 hp, however I’m getting that itch again.
What do you think of the new M2 vs a GT500? One of these may be my next vehicle.
That is so fantastic Matthew! That RS3 sounds like a beast. I would go M2 because I would want the manual.
@@RaitisRides Saw some reviews that point out that the M2's G87 manual gearbox is not up to standards... feels like an afterthought, just like the Mk8 Golf R's. For the Golf R, you can tell it was an afterthought to appease the North American market since it's not even available for the German/EMEA region. That curious thing about the G87, though, is that the chief engineered pointed out that he made sure the M2 had a manual option and that he would personally order one for himself with a 6mt... yet the gearbox seems to be subpar for many other journalists.
@@karmahunden I guess time will tell as more people start racing these on track. I’m excited to see what the future facelifts of this car will bring.
@@karmahunden Just the normal BMW manual gearbox. Been that way for years and years. They aren't going to invest heavily in developing a new, better one when there are so few manuals ordered and their future is bleak. It's plenty good enough though and can be upgraded (a short throw for example is a quick easy upgrade for it)
Bunmper square just cool
Very good 💯
Great review! Did you enjoy this vehicle more than the Mustang Dark Horse?
I'm just here to find out 'what's going on'.
So... 'Let's talk about what's going on here."...lol
Great Job.... I really enjoy your reviews.
That means so much!
Yes, finally! The review i was waiting for! 🏎️
I hope it was worth the wait!
@@RaitisRides yes, it was!
One question, is there a way to turn off the sound pumped into the car from engine or exhaust?
My setup would be a red black or gray with the black wheels and a slick shifting 6spd manual transmission for heel toe downshifting!!!!!😊 great review Joe Lori and Steven!!😊
Sounds good to me!
@@RaitisRides On Throttle here we go!
Me: "It looks great"
Everyone else: "It looks terrible"
Me: "it looks terrible"
I think it looks great man
Design will age well imo
Black… trust me.
No i dont care what you peeps say. It looks good. Ya'll can keep to your ... insert cliche model here. I drive an LC500 so i really don't care what others think. I pulled my 911 order for it. Im not one to follow a crowd. What i find funny is i tested them both back to back and i found them to be on par w/ each other. Coming from a guy who runs from police on his bike and i track too. Id argue the 911 has an edge over the LC on the track and I'm talking BASE 911 you tag an S to that and its no comp but i payed 106k for mine where the base 911 was 110 and you have to add options so i was up to 140. I have no regrets.
that's okay I believe a company already makes retrofitted bumpers front and rear to get rid of the square look
The most lil exciting car 🚗 😍 in the M series😊..thanks Joe and Steven for this baby pocket rocket 🚀 😊
I am glad that you could go on throttle with me!
Amazing
I bought a 2023 m2 6 speed manual
Nicely done!
What’s your feedback? Do u love it?
Congrats, which color
Nice for like 15k right ?
Manual trans is rubbery by all reports, I would actually pick the auto
Hate the squares in the front but otherwise, absolutely beautiful
Joe I can’t wait for you to review the new 7 series 2023
@raiti Z, Supra, or M2 and main reason for your choice ?
@21:41 notice how he doesn't lean back to hide the fact that your head will go through the roof.
Love the color and still my dream car Joe.
Hi Joe I love the BMW M2 and I feel like BMW And Motor Sport are the apostles to the Sports cars I like it. When will you review the BMW I7 the Apostle to the Luxury Sedans?
Thanks Luis for always watching!
@@RaitisRides No, you're welcome Apostle Joe. I've got to ask you something. when will you review the new BMW I7 [THE ULTIMATE APOSTLE TO THE LUXURY CARS]?
The price seems to have gone up around 30 percent from the last model, in my country at least.. Can't support that.
@@MKu64 True
I’d go Brooklyn gray. I wish they’d offer it in a bright green
I feel the same exact way.
I Love my BMW but I'm starting to Love the 2024 Maserati Quattroporte Modena Q4 & the 2024 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Autobiography. But the 2024 M5 is in play and the 2024 X6 M Comp is in play. So I will be watching videos more and more. Plus I Love vehicles. I may want to start my own channel of car reviews like Doug Murrano and Raittis Rides. Great job by the way as always.
That is very interesting Ron.
Love the design.
Keep going almost there to 998,000k subscribers I wanna see him grow his TH-cam channel supportive 💯
Thanks for having my back Jimmy!
I just subbed to help get the milli
@@goldengrill769 that’s so awesome of you!
JR ~ I race NASCAR, but when I'm not on the track I drive my new baby - grocery getter. I was surprised you wanted to review my new M2, glad to loan it to ya :P
Joe, when doing videos on sport cars. Always i repeat always compare to your type r. No matter the hp difference. Just the engagement and feel.. good review
Looks good
Great review! Love the Raiti! #twinkies
I am so glad that I can share it with you!
Beautiful ❤️
Super beautiful color bro
I’m so glad that you are liking this one.
🇺🇸 *Great review of the NEW M2* !! *NEXT STOP is 1,000,000 subs* !! *Excellent content Joe, Lori and Steven* !! #RaitisRides 🇺🇸
We can’t do it without you
@@RaitisRidesI live in cali, I would still ripped off that front plate, it’s a ugly piece
Beautiful colour nice car
Since i do love BMW coupes i thought i loved the M4 but am feeling the M2 more!!
