@@cathalfolan8441 I guess you must not be much of a car guy if you think no older cars are worth talking about.

Great video that helped me pull the trigger on one today! Love the car! I had a 2017 M2 and was underwhelmed. This is a totally different car! It is expensive for an M2 but I'm hoping it will hold the value better than a competition. I do wish it had an armrest though :)
Come to North and West Yorkshire Britain most of the roads are like this. The five-mile road to my old house was like this and every other road around Sutton Bank, Easingwold, York. Scotland and the lake district are mostly roads like this also. 1000 of miles of them.
Definitely the best new BMW especially with a manual. As a 8 time BMW M owner including a 2016 M2 and a 2011 1 Series M, I agree this is the best M2 but still not as good a the 1M. The biggest difference is hydraulic steering vs electric. Drive them back to back and its a noticeable difference. Plus the 1M appreciates every year. I agree with your 1M example, my 1M has 19k miles on it and is worth $15k more than I paid for it, so I drive it for free and then some. The M2 CS will probably have zero depreciation for the first year or two like my 2016 M2 did, but then it will depreciate with the new 2 Series on the horizon and then another M2, M2 Comp, and a new M2 CS about 5 years from now. 4 years from now would be the time to buy a slightly used M2 CS. I would expect manuals to sell for about $60k-70k and DCT to fetch about $50-60k on the used market in 4 years. Look at the huge depreciation on the M3 & M4 CS. If I was buying now, for $85k I would take a 2016 Cayman GT4, Evora 400, or Porsche 997 Turbo, or for one car that does everything at this price point a used Porsche 991.2 manual (which I purchased) or AMG GTS. Still good to see BMW making a drivers car and offering a manual trans, just not worth $85k with so many other great choices out there and I am Mr. BMW
@@Chris-se3nc fantastic daily. superb build quality for the class. feels more solid than the F30 I had before, but definately more 5-series than 3-series of old. I got the adaptive suspension and it does a reasonable good job of masking the weight while attacking, but you certainly still feel it. Engine is a masterpiece but basically useless if you want to stay within the law. To be honest, I'm rather torn. It's an absolutely great car on its own merits, but there is very little 3-series DNA left.
I'm am so glad to have a well sorted e36 M3. This M2 is trying it's best to be the same size under modern safety limitations. I can't wait to snag one used in 15 years.
I had an m4 three years ago and test drive an m2 a year ago. Tbh the m2 is spacial is really outshines the m3 and m2. It's worth every penny a very special car indeed.
Well, it's more expensive than M4 comp, where you get nicer interior, PSS tires, bigger wheels, HUD, keyless entry lol. Here, you give up an armrest for more $$$. The reason to get this over M4 is rarity or if you prefer how it drives, not the price.
@@hellario2 I guess a lot of people are hoping it retains value, but with a starting price of $85 - $90k... All recent BMWs feel numb, sterile/fake engine noise, NA engine > lag of a turbo engine, and aren't all that special. I'm sure it will go like stink.
I love it. Absolutely love it. I've been a huge fan of the M2 non-competition due to the engine and exhaust tone (M2 comp has always sounded "off" in my mind). But this M2 CS changes the game again. I feel like it sounds amazing when you're driving it, and much better than the M2 comp engine but I need to say it, still not as nice as M2 non-comp! Great review Matt!
@Peder Hansen I'm sorry but you are mistaken. The M2 CS is front engined, RWD w/ 4 seats, The Cayman GTS 4.0 is mid-engined, RWD w/ 2 seats. Two completely different animals.
I mean they arn’t really that comparable. If you want a true sports car with one of the best chassis and driving dynamics in the world then get the Porsche. If you want one of the most fun cars out there with 4 usable seats then get the M2.
That's the best dash cam you can get for under $150, I had a Viofo a119s for $70 a couple years ago, you can really read the plates at night unlike most other cheap dash cams
The problem with this car is that it creeps into cayman territory with that price tag and that’s where it loses me.. who would chose this over a gts or gt4?
People who want back seats and don’t mind a front engine experience. A BMW person who wants exclusivity and might already have other toys so they aren’t cross shopping? You bring up a good point.
the thing is......it is an amazing car and with limited production BUT ill go for a used 991.2 gts or even a turbo for that money in witch those 2 would smoke the m2 cs and most importantly it is a Porsche.
Probably people who want a more unruly car over the hyper focused mid engine GT4. Same thing with the people that bought a 1M over a Cayman back in 2011. They are completely different in character imo.
WHAAAT 87 grand?! I’d wait a few years and pick it up for a sizable discount lol....Everything aside another great review Matt. Merry Christmas to you and your fam!
A very well deserved 1M, a seriously deep One Take library that has something for everyone. $83k is a lot, but hopefully collectible and retains value.
Sold my 2015 m235 this year to pay some bills. Got a great price so it was the right move but damn was that my favorite car. I didnt even need to drive fast for it to make me smile.
Adaptive dampers have been available for almost all 2 series models except for 218i, 220i, M2 and M2C. Heck, my 5 year old 228i has that option. - This is the first modern M that I’ve been excited about and would consider owning after a spec’d out entry level 2 series. Have fun driving that thing for the week!
Comfort access module (keyless entry) was located in the center console, along with rear ventilation. These were deleted eith the adaptation of the CS-specific center console. Having a CS car I will say that I do like the specific center console, I don't need nor do I miss the armrest one bit. I do, however, wish that BMW found a way to relocate the CA module. Either way, great car that I'll own for the rest of my life. It's that good.
I can vouch for the quality of the Viofo cams. I own two A119s, which I had mounted in my previous car and loved them. The only reason they're not mounted right now, is, that I got a car from my employer now.
I’m starting to think I’d rather have the DCT on some of these cars than a manual. Just the fact that these cars shift the way they do makes up for not having a 3rd pedal. I’ve never driven an m2 but I have an m240i and even that zf8 is awesome. I love the way it cracks on upshifts. I can’t imagine how awesome the DCT would be.
I've got a regular manual M2 facelift, picked that up around 40k€ last year. The CS is like 100k€ out here, I don't recon it can worth an extra 60k€. Also for 100k€, i'll buy a 991.2 S or a cayman gt4 second hand. The price on these new cars are insane.
Mine is on the boat headed to the states now. I own a M235i. I love how it drives. So I wanted the best variant of the 2 series. Is it worth the 23 over the Comp that is a hard sale. But this was an emotional purchase for me. I plan on keeping the car forever. So it is not a car that I am looking to get out of in a few years. I will baby it by keeping it in storage in the winter, because of the limit run for it. I do plan on getting a GT4 once it is paid for. I want to own the best of the entry level cars that the Germans make.
You took issue with aspects of the M2 Comp when you drove on track, but I didn't hear the same "frustrations" in this review of the CS on the road. I have seen other reviews that loved the M2 Comp on the street but thought it was not ideally suited to track use. How much of the difference in your conclusions, about these two cars, if any, is attributable to street v. track performance?
Here in Europa this car is being produced as long as there is demand and it's not limited in numbers or time (currently it isn't the most successful BMW model in the world). You can find lots of 0-miles, cheap CSs as people mainly go for the Comp, which is more or less the same car, but much cheaper. For instance, I had a 2016 M2 (I was one of the very first owners here Switzerland) and I was considering to replace it with a CS... but in the end I went for a 2012 1M Coupe with just 3000 miles, and believe me, this wasn't the cheapest option.
Dear Matt, please, with sugar on top, get a gimbal, that you can use while going around the car. Anno 2021 having bouncing walk around simply does not cut it, since the videos are so great and the reviews priceless.
Limited production, and what Matt describes as phenomenal, but he chokes on the $85,000 price. These will sell for a premium to 2200 knowledgeable enthusiasts.

The early morning lighting in that canyon is gorgeous!
The sponsored dash cam combo is something that people should actually consider
agreed, the viofo a119v3 and 129 are excellent quality cameras that are much better than the competition

It's hard to believe that BMW makes a car as elegantly cool as this thing and also makes the bloated, buck-toothed M4.

Good lord you're carving up those roads.
Good take! you nailed the analysis on the comps. Has the most usable back seat of its peers which is why I ended up buying one... manual of course ;)

For instance, I had a 2016 M2 (I was one of the very first owners here Switzerland) and I was considering to replace it with a CS... but in the end I went for a 2012 1M Coupe with just 3000 miles, and believe me, this wasn't the cheapest option.
Congrats on a milli!! And sweet video 👌🏽
lol the turnout at 6:41 is pretty much entirely covered in used rubber, love to see it
I would love to cruise on those roads one day
Dear Matt, please, with sugar on top, get a gimbal, that you can use while going around the car. Anno 2021 having bouncing walk around simply does not cut it, since the videos are so great and the reviews priceless.
What a beautiful drive, I need to move somewhere with curves and nice weather.
Not Cali unless you enjoy crushing taxes and authoritarian dystopia
Limited production, and what Matt describes as phenomenal, but he chokes on the $85,000 price. These will sell for a premium to 2200 knowledgeable enthusiasts.
I only watch these videos to see the turning radius part.
