BMW M2 a Shit

Wow an AWD car with more power barely beats an RWD car on wet condition drag race no shit
The M2 rapes the CLA on the track by the way.

>drag race on a damp cold track where 4WD has a huge advantage
>only manages .01 win
lmao Mercucks on suicide watch

>>15055660
>3L 6 cyl with a tarbo
> 272kw

>2L 4cyl with a tarbo
> 280kw

is this some merk magic or did bmw fucked up on that engine?

>>15055706
Mistubishi squeezed 440hp out of a 2.0 i4

Mercedes ain't shit

>>15055706
Can't step on the m4s toes

>>15055706
>>15055716
BMW made a 1400hp 1.5 4cyl engine 30 years ago

>>15055706
maybe it means that BMW finally figured out that displacement is a good thing

>>15055706
gimped the M2's engine because you can't have it beating the M4

>>15055716
FQs are showroom tuner cars
They have a bunch of HKS shit bolted to them after they are registered so they don't have to pass emissions tests.

>>15055745
but it did beat the M4.

Honestly why not use a V8 or a larger displacement 6cy in the M4

>>15055781
The M2 wont beat an M4 in a head to head track battle
The M2 ran the Nurburgring 6 seconds slower than the M4
The M2 is aparently more fun to drive though

>>15055735
Totally reliable and daily drivable, right?

>>15055799
Lasted at least one race, I guess.

>>15055781
M4 has an S55 engine which revs to 7.5k
M2 has an N55 engine which revs to 7k. The M2-specific N55 has a a couple of components from the S55 to uprate it over the specs found in cars that use the N55 (M135i, M235i, etc). It weighs the same as the M4, has less power than the M4, but the chassis is so good that it's still a pretty close draw in a head-to-head vs the M4, that only cucks would buy an M4 purely because they seek the Top Trumps win.

It's in the margin of error around willow springs.

.2 of a second quicker.

>>15055809
> only cucks would buy an M4 purely because they seek the Top Trumps win.

Or they're too much of a poorfag for the M6

>>15055793
The M2 is also cheaper.

I think the M2 is the more natural successor to the M3 coupe, so it should keep the I6. I don't see why the M4 can't have a V8, though.

>>15055822
Muh emissions. It'd cuck even more yurops out of buying one.

>>15055826
A TT V8 would have less emissions.

You'd need a purely cucked engine like a 3.5L displacement with twin scroll and variable vane shit but you can pull it off.

>>15055835
They already have a TT V8 in the M5/M6, so that'd put the M4 into their territory.

It's not to be the faster car, it's a pure GT cruiser with enough grunt to get out of it's own way.

>>15055839
They can cuck it just like they cucked the M2

>>15055850
But at that point, why even bother?

>>15055853
which is why I don't know why anyone today buys a BMW.

I'd get an F Type or something from AMG. The only really good car from BMW is the i8 and they didn't even get that all the way right since comfort mode doesn't charge the batteries

>>15055660
I drove both at the track and the amg was shit.

>>15055900
AWD Understeer?

>>15055965
It feels more like the older AMGs where they stuffed a lot of power into a chassis and handling was a after thought.

>both slower than the Focus RS

>>15055820
My prof has one and even she's considering getting rid of it for a 911 Turbo or something of the sorts

>>15055869
I was under the impression that the M6 is an excellent car. Based solely on reviews, I haven't driven one.

>>15057389
An M4 or an M6?

>>15057449
M6 with the V10, glorious machine but maintenance was annoying

>>15057389
>professor being able to afford an M6

>>15057973
It's easy when you're a plastic surgeon on the side

>>15055735
I think that made a blackhole when it started.

you sound like a gigantic faggot

>the one that sounds like a faggot

>>15061997
Could you elaborate how that post makes him sound like a faggot?

>>15055793
Haven't driven the M2, but I've driven the M235i. By far the M235i is the most fun car BMW is selling today. Period. The handling, the suspension, the steering, the transmission, the engine. Everything feels well tuned and you can get a feel for what's going on while driving the car (at least more than other BMWs).
