    M2 comp all day. If the crank hub is done, then you add full bolt ons, that car is smoking any M3 or M4 on the road

    I absolutely love the styling of the M2. It looks good stick. It looks good modified. The bulging rear quarters are just so good looking! I’ve previously owned a supercharged E46 M3 manual. I can’t wait until I’m done with school to buy an M2, in this exact color!

    Thanks for the followup Tommy. I had a nice chat with Alejandro several weeks ago at our local Long Island Cars n Coffee. He’s done a great job with his car. Next mods I’m contemplating for my M2C are the CDV delete and possibly an Ohlins coilover setup.

    • @ACAC89
      @ACAC89 3 роки тому +2

      If I'm not mistaken it's from a German company called 'Faserschmiede Carbon Manufaktur' - they use OEM base when making the dry carbon which makes the fitment 100%. I'm not aware of any other companies that offer that trim piece in dry carbon apart from this one.

    I’m not surprised the difference is noticeable because of the wheelbase. Fun fact: the M2C wheelbase is shorter that the E46 M3.
    I’d go F80 because of the the way it looks. I actually thought the Non-S55 M2 was nicer looking than the M2C. But I dislike the look of the rear end all together.

    Year old video, but I have a question. I'm looking for a 2021 M2 Competition (don't like the G87 looks) and I was curious if you've had a chance to drive a 2023 Supra 6MT or how it may compare. I really can't decide between this M2 Comp or a manual Supra for reliability, resale value, and overall weekend fun. I'm not looking to have the fastest car on the road, just a fun vehicle.

    • @TommyLGarage

      M2 comp all day long. Forget about resale value. Supra has inferior suspension and overall feels like an inferior car.

    Hey Tommy, can you adjust your sound settings when you go from talking audio to music audio, because it blast way too loud during music or auto sounds. so I end up lowering the sounds during music or car sounds and raise during conversations, im running on computer speakers in my situation.

      That’s an excellent question. The supra actually feels a little bit faster. But because this one is a manual transmission car you’re a course to me feels like her better fun car. And also the suspension on this one is a lot better than the supra.

      I’ve got the M2C and E46 M3 Coupe 6mt and the E46 kicks the arse of the M2 for pure driver feedback. M2 is quicker and not as analogue as the E46 but it’s not always about the speed hence why the E46 is the true purists choice.
