Got one in Zandvoort Blue in late Sep. 3 pedals, like yours. Perfect dual-purpose daily or track car. Congrats on yours! Brooklyn Grey with the M highlight seats = 🔥
It’s nice to still be able to buy a 3 pedal sports car these days. I am having a blast with my car as I’m sure you are as well. Congratulations on your purchase. Enjoy.
Nice. I have a 24 Brooklyn gray (stealth PPFd) and I also frequent Hendricks North Lake. Mine is fully option with carbon buckets and I tried to order with them over the summer but they told me 18 month wait time for the carbon package. I found one lightly used and love it. The North Lake folks are cool too. I'll be glad when the construction is over.
Nice!! Those carbon seats are pretty cool. Glad you’re enjoying your car. Definitely a fun car to drive. Yep it will be nice when that construction is over with. 😊
Congrats! I really love this brooklyn grey. You can see in this color much more details! I hope you have fun with the great car!! 👍 Greetings from Germany!
Unreal, congrats it's absolutely stunning! You must have the patience of a saint... sounds like there's a story here cos if you ordered it in 2023 and you ended up with the LCI which didn't go into production until Q3 this year 2024, I'm sure there's something to that! I have to wait 8 weeks for mine to arrive and even that is killing me! Ordered mine in Grigio Telesto so quite similar to this, black wheels, carbon roof, although I wish I'd gone for the Vernasca accented seats as it looks amazing there. I'll just keep druelling over this whilst I wait for mine to arrive!
@@Neil3D Well the wait while hard wasn’t too bad because I had an M2 competition to keep me happy during the waiting period,. The hard part is when I sold my M2 comp and had nothing to drive for a couple of months. I was very happy when the dealer told me my car was ready for pick up. Your M2 sounds like it’s going to look amazing. The waiting part is hard. Enjoy your new car in 8 weeks.
@@marcgies8173 Thanks man. I just went through a little wobble as I bought a black M4 Convertible Competition back in 2018... and at the time I saw some pictures of a M4 in Grigio which I absolutely fell in love with, but I couldn't get that colour so I settled for black. So I thought I'd just finally ordered that Grigio colour on my M2... only to now realise that the colour I previously saw was "Grigio Medio" not "Grigio Telesto" haha but tbh the new 2025 individual colours are a bit much, the green/blue/yellows are too ostentatious, nice to look at but I think 3-4 years of living with a colour like that will get a bit much. I like knowing that I've ordered one that not many people will have. And the grey on black wheels has a proper level of class to it. Must admit, the Brooklyn Grey does look outstanding on black wheels... absolutely beautiful.
@@Neil3DI haven’t seen a Grigio in person but I bet your M2 is going to look awesome. I agree with you. The other colors are a bit much for me too. Almost went with the blue but my last one was blue and my wife has a red car so she said no . 🤣🤣 Happy motoring!!!
I agree with you. Very controversial styling, but in person it’s stunning. Dealerships can’t keep them in stock. That says a lot about the “in person” impression the car makes on people. My 2025 Portillo Blue M2 just finished assembly. Due to me in November. Beautiful car… enjoy!!!✌️
Yes, I have a friend who just saw the car for the first time in person. He said you are right this car looks so much different in person. He was very impressed with the styling and loved it.
Congrats! It's a beauty! I have one on order from Hendrick BMW Northlake - she lands in Dec! I live around there where you do it seems like. Small world!
Congrats, man. Funny thing... I just ordered the identical car (Sept 2024). Hopefully, it wont take as long. I was told four months - so, January sometime. Enjoy the experience.
Nope don’t regret it at all. It’s one of the many reasons I bought the M2. Some say it’s too rubbery feeling. That doesn’t bother me and I really enjoy the fun factor of shifting through the gears on M2. Thank you bmw for giving us all a choice. 👍👍
Beautiful car!! So happy for you , and you have an amazing partner, what a dream !!! I love my m340 but I might go for a m2 next , it’s growing on me big time
congrats. Great car. I am seriously considering getting one. Just not sure about rear seat room as this will be my daily and need room for my daughter at the back.
The long wait was due to 14 people ahead of me who already put in orders for an M2. It actually worked out great because this way I got a 2025, which had some of the upgrades I’m glad I got. Especially the 20 hp bump in power and flat bottom steering wheel.
@@marcgies8173 I see. I am living in Sydney Australia so I open my pano roof most cases. I heard the carbon roof may be damaged by UV easily so ppf or coating is needed.,
I just had ppf installed on front and roof of car. Also a layer of ceramic coating. Never did it to any of my other cars. Thought I would see how it works for myself.
Congratulations. I have f82 m4 and the new ones are too big and heavy. I think this m2 might be my next move. Hope you enjoy her. How many miles was the running in first service?
I was put on a waiting list. There were 14 who put in orders ahead of me. I had to wait from November 2023 until July 2024 when my order finally went in.
super excited for you guys
Going to get mine in 2025 Feb or March. White Manual with sports kit. Can’t wait
Waiting is the hardest part. Congratulations you are going to love it!!!!
You and your partner make a great team with this video man, so much positive vibes, good for you, enjoy that M2, looks incredible!
Thank you. It’s going to be a fun car to own.

You spell your name like my brother Marc. The French form. I got mine in Frozen Grey. Congrats!!
You brother must be a cool guy. 😊 Frozen Grey will look awesome. Congratulations. 🎉🎉
I got my 2024 M2 back in May. Glad to see another M2 driver with a manual transmission and carbon fiber roof. I like the new steering wheels.
Yes I like the steering wheel a lot. Yeap manual is a fun way to go. Enjoy your M2 too!!!
Going for 2025 m2 tbh

@@marcgies8173 Yes, German "autobahn" without speed limit is pure pleasure!! 😃
love watching the joy of these delivery videos, congratulations! im waiting on my m440i in rosso corsa.
Enjoy your new ride. 🎉
Just picked up my M2 in white from Hendrick Northlake as well! Congrats!
Awesome congratulations on your new car 🎉

wow congrats man! Wishing you and your partner many safe miles in it. Great music taste too. Blessings.
Thank you.
Congrats, love the car!
Thank you. It is a great car.
Beautiful car. Dang I want one of those.
Beautiful car, congrats & enjoy it!
Thanks! Will do!
How is the manual? Did you regret it?
Nope don’t regret it at all. It’s one of the many reasons I bought the M2. Some say it’s too rubbery feeling. That doesn’t bother me and I really enjoy the fun factor of shifting through the gears on M2. Thank you bmw for giving us all a choice. 👍👍
Looks great! I have loved my g80 since I got it 2 years ago. The first 1200 miles was terrible cause I couldn’t wail on it
I know the feeling. I need to put those 1200 miles on as soon as possible.
Great roads for that car
Yes NC has some great roads!!!
Congrats it's absolutely stunning!
Congrats. She’s a beauty!! Great edit too.
Thanks a lot!
Beautiful car!! So happy for you , and you have an amazing partner, what a dream !!! I love my m340 but I might go for a m2 next , it’s growing on me big time
Thank you. If you do decide to go with the M2, you will not be disappointed.
Great video! So lucky for you
Thank you Angelika. I would love to take my car on the Autobahn!! And take it on some of those roads we were on last year
Congrats! Great video!! Waiting on an M240I myself. Think I'll do a similar vid when I get mine.
Congrats!!! Have fun!!!
Thanks
Congrats! I just placed my order for the G87 in Black Sapphire 😊 Cannot wait till December!
Waiting is the tough part. You are going to love it. Congratulations.
@@marcgies8173 thank you! I have a Supra to keep me entertained meantime, will sell that when I get the firmer delivery date for the M2 !
I have 2024 m2. I strongly recommend a short shifter. I got rogue engineering. Others out there as well.
Congrats. I live in The Point and might see you around. I hope they come out with XDrive and I will get one. Waiting to see if they do.
Nice spec. went to northlake and the waitline for an M2 is little over a year and 6 months for an M3
Wow that’s a long time. Waiting is the hardest part.
congrats. Great car. I am seriously considering getting one. Just not sure about rear seat room as this will be my daily and need room for my daughter at the back.
If she can fit back there, I highly recommend getting the car. It is so much fun to drive. Good luck with your decision. 👍
Congrats, Enjoy!
Thanks! Will do!
Que bonito, felicitaciones :)
Thank you
Looks mint 😎 at least you get nice weather unlike the UK…
@@GBFeb72 Thanks. Yeah it’s been raining for the past three days.
Why such a long wait?

Do you miss the sunroof? In Australia we can’t opt the sunroof but carbon roof only.
I had a sunroof in my last M2 competition. No I do not miss the sunroof. I think the carbon fiber looks great.

1200 miles is first service. Then time to really open her up!!
Congratulations,one day I'll get mine
You will love it.
How did Northlake treat you? Getting mine in a month or so
They were great to work with. No pressure to buy any add ons. Congratulations and Enjoy your new car. The M2 is an awesome ride.
Wow that was a long wait. I ordered mine in may 2023 and i got it in August 2023. Enjoy!
Yes, a long wait. I had 14 people ahead of me on the list of M2 orders.
Hey Marc! Does the 25 have auto folding mirrors?
Yes it does. As soon as you walk away from the car and it locks the rearview mirrors fold in.
Looks fazzee 💪🏿
Did u get off any msrp?
Not really understanding how some people get perellis or Michelins or Yokohamas
I guess it’s just luck of the draw. I was hoping for the Michelin, but the Yokohama seem to be pretty good. Time will tell.
I just ordered the same car yesterday only with bi color wheels.
Awesome car 👍👍
You are very lucky man that your wife enjoys and loves new car. My wife thinks that buying cars is just completely wasted money.
Yeah I have a friend whose wife is like that. I do consider myself very fortunate.
Very cool spec old-timer. How do you like it?
The car is a blast to drive. It handles incredibly well on the twisty roads. Cant wait until I can push it more after the break in service. Love it!!!
How long did it take to get it? It sounded like you waited 6 months? Is that typical? 🤔
I was put on a waiting list. There were 14 who put in orders ahead of me. I had to wait from November 2023 until July 2024 when my order finally went in.

Did they ship from Mexico to Germany and then back to USA? Or was it straight from Mexico? Asking because you got it so soon😄😄
It shipped directly from Mexico to Baltimore.
Parts are shipped to Mexico and assembled there.
Built in Mexico and shipped from Mexico. I believe they make all bmw two series in Mexico.
Which radar detdctor is this?
@@imvlix It’s the Uniden R8. I haven’t had it very long but while testing it out I found the range to be excellent.
Really put the m2 performance to the test after the Mexican food hit you both on the drive home! Just kidding
Yes, I definitely got a little extra boost from the burrito. 😂😂
You highly recommend driving one? Sounds like an invite 😂 3:54
