Honestly I've never had an issue with this car that has stopped it from driving. It has maintenance items that was over due that needed attention but nothing catastrophic. The only direct car that you could compare on Lexus lineup is a ISF or an RCF. They do have a good sounding V8 but offer only a torque converter automatic no manual or DCT. They also drive completely different it's just a personal preference at that point which one you get.

I would get an interior shop to just re do the seam they can usually hide it well. I have used Colourlock products in the past I really like them.

@@anthonyboey3210 not my car. Just used for the video

I completely agree. Whenever I buy a F87 M2 seats will be the first investment because it will be a more dedicated track car. Yes the N55 diffidently sound great with an exhaust.

@@brockmoorea14 You are absolutely right. In general M2´s are just the best :)

When did he say that

Kind of Confused because I never talked about a M240I? I do know you could get the M240I in a AWD configuration with the First generation B58.

Which is a great base engine for a prep, even with only a tune

@@brockmoorea14 no I’m just asking. You never brought it up but it is the fastest bmw out to date if modded all the way

I know the lower part of the bumper was updated didn't realize the Kidney grills were larger. That's a cool fact to know. Seat upgrade I mentioned because I do believe its one of the best upgrades in term of day to day. The S55 does definitely help with the additional turbo for adding a different character to the M2 chassis.

Well it's technically the same S55. Some early reports said they had slightly different changes engine wise but who knows. The wheel base of a F80 M3 is 110.7 inches and the F87 M2 comp is 106 inches. That slightly shorter wheelbase does give it that different driving experience vs the F80. But personally I would take an F80 over a F87 M2 comp to replace my E90 M3. But perfect world I would have a Base M2 as my lapping day car and daily an F80 M3 haha

M2 comps have a much better resell value than the f80. Air to air intercooler conversion fixes the cooling and heat soak issue for track days. I’d take an m2 comp, and daily an f30 335. But I own a 14 335 and have a 135 sittin on ice

@@brockmoorea14 Yeah I’d love an f80 M4C personally, 50 more hp than the comp and a nicer cabin. The M2C is a better car than the OG but not the direction the M2 was meant to go in imo, it’s meant to be a 1M successor and the OG does a decent job at that (aside from the steering). If I was tuning for big power I’d go s55 all the way but the M4 chassis just feels a lot more stable at 500+ hp and is better suited motor to that car. The M2CS is the proper M2C imo as it addressed the weight and actually revised the suspension beyond just software.

Don't blame you, if I truly had the choice I would take a comp with the S55 hands down. But I also like the idea of running a Base M2 with just downpipe and tune. Then lapping the hell out of it haha

@@brockmoorea14 cost, how many miles I'm going to put on it and what those miles will be certainly play into the formula!

​@@brockmoorea14 certainly the best sounding turbo m car

I do like the sound of my S65 E90 M3 more I have to say.

@@brockmoorea14 no competition there, E9X sounds the best no doubt

Factory unit or did you upgrade the system to an aftermarket unit like MR12V? I know the factory units really don't like newer phones. That's why most people upgrade to MR12V to regain functionality.

Your car has to have a 2010.5 or newer manufacturing date which would include the combox. If it’s older than that then you don’t get Bluetooth audio streaming. Just get a mr12volt. Don’t bother retrofitting.

@@alfyer5 I do have the “new” combox, mine is 2011. It will recognize the phone on Bluetooth, but it does not transfer data or says that “the phone is stored” it will answer calls, but no control with the iDrive? I think my BT/ combox link may be faulty? I do know that my footwell module (frm) is faulty, per “BimmerCode”, I cannot program certain functions, would this affect the CIC/ BT? Thanks for your feedback 😊

Awesome! Glade to hear it! Theses things just need maintenance.

That's Awesome! Just keep driving it and keeping it Maintained. Its gonna last you for awhile.

Thank you! Really glade I found this car. I just need to do the Aftermarket carbon roof at some point to seal the spec for me.

@@brockmoorea14 same here!

@@ZRVN06 personally I wouldn't change the bearings. If you are scared about them and that could influence a decision. But I've built enough engines I'm not comfortable just slapping bearings in something. I would rather pull it apart have the crank polished, line bore checked and rods checked for out of round. Then if it passed bearing size selection for clearance and re assembly. Long store sort there's a lot more to putting bearings in a car especially with age and mileage everything wears together.

@@Bmwguy2011 that's awesome! I don't plan on getting rid of mine for awhile. Would love to see get over 200k.

Yup I agree.

Exactly, no need to rush into the bearing replacement. I'm going to be doing a full video on this soon explaining it in more detail.

@@eiji81 yup I had to code out the adaptive in mine. Which is fine because I would never have cared for it anyways. Seems like the trend with theses cars the more you drive them the better they are.

@@knighriderredux yup the seat is an eye sore. The plan is to do something recaros but I might just have it fixed in the meantime. Glad to hear about a lot of these cars being driven!

Sound quality is great. I've been in several cars with the MR12 Volt installed. It sounds as good as my Aux hooked up to the factory port. Its probably one of the best things you can do for one of these cars.
