Yeah, I gotta be honest - I'm following it with heightened interest. Car sounds like it is going to be a monster.
Saw something this week that BMW filled something about it also having x drive. I know it will have the m4 engine. Just “detuned “ a bit

if I don’t go factory car it and gt4 are short list for next track toy

Here are individual pics with a side shot. Overall I like it. Need to see it in person or at least in a video to get a sense of dimension.

Im not sure how I feel about this one. It kind of gives off an 80s vibes.

I'm not saying it's perfect by any means, but it looks way better than other designs BMW and a lot of other manufacturers have come up with lately. It must be really hard to design new cars to be as beautiful as the Z.

Bimmerpost is having a complete meltdown as per usual 🤣

What the hell are car designers smoking these days? What with these weird shapes making awkward front and rear ends? I'm sure it'll perform incredibly well but it just looks weird. I really liked the outgoing M2 and I'm highly considering getting one as my next car.

I like the front of the outgoing M2 but overall the proportions always looked off to me (the 1M pulled it off way better). I never cared for the side or rear and not looking to own any S55 powered car. I'm one of those weirdos though where the CS being released completely killed any desire to own a Comp, if it was ever there.

M2 Comp is a great car though. Hope you enjoy it should you go that route!
