The tuning potential of modern BMWs is just absolutely bonkers. The fact that you can get a +200hp increase from stock by just an aftermarket intake and exhaust and an ECU remap is incredible. You don't even need to touch the engine or the turbos.
Or just maybe the internals are not quite strong enough to handle and maintain them pressures so you're better off rebuilding the whole thing with stronger materials, im sure companies are not deluded enough not to push their products to the absolute limits

i think the 96-2000 honda civic coupe is heavier than the 4 door, or like the same weight. coupes aren't as much lighter than 4 doors as you would think. I don't know why.
200 extra horsepower and the Touring is still 0.1s slower than the 11.0 second stock M3/M4 Comp previously tested by Carwow? Didn’t realize it was that much heavier.
Agreed. The M3 isn't good looking (I really don't like the look of most of this generation of BMW's anyway after the previous M4 being my dream car), but that M2 is criminally ugly.

im sad we never got the s58 supra that was rumored. that would blow the doors off the m2 rwd cus its actually light in weight even though it has no awd.. for right now the m240i xdrive and g80 m3 xdrive are the fastest BMW for racing builds cus of awd. but the m2 is the best for driving cus its the lightest s58. but a supra s58 would change that.

There's no doubt the M3 touring would be a more practical and better daily, but I would choose the M2 as I have always liked them, even the new shape that took some getting used to.

@@Y_Preethey are easily strong enough on stock internals for 800bhp. The stock block limit is something outrageous like 1300bhp.
The issue is producing that much power under the emission limits
715 HP on that little M2 is dope
yeah, especially with a RWD only and over 800 Nm of torque xD
Its not so little anymore
It’s far from little!
1.7 tons, quite heavy
I like the kick you get in the M2 when switching gears. Pitty it drinks so much mine haha
0:01 the cars are the same colour as the thumbnail for once
should have made the m3 touring go in 2wd for one of the drag race
it won’t engage launch control in rwd mode

How the hell is a 2-seater only 100kg lighter than a 4WD family car?
The underlying platform is the same, same engine, and air isn't very heavy. The main weight difference is the 4WD system.
Both same platform, same drivetrain etc
M2 with heavier battery, heavier wheels (from stock)
i think the 96-2000 honda civic coupe is heavier than the 4 door, or like the same weight. coupes aren't as much lighter than 4 doors as you would think. I don't know why.
BMW weights don't make any sense. Like the new M5 being 130 kg heavier than their fully EV i5 M60.
@@blax52vet i think it's related to Chassis stiffness and bracing! it's way more in coupé than normal ones.
1700kg with that small car is insane….
The M2 is not small.
It is longer and wider than a BMW 3-series E90 (2005-2013) !
It’s a m4 with a different body that’s why it’s so heavy
its no old supra light lol
"small car" ?! you should maybe take a look at the m2 before making such clames but even more important weight doesnt matter if the car drives well
You can blame government regulations for all that weight!
Emission systems, 25 airbags, enough sensors the car can drive itself, etc.....
Hopefully I can get a G87 M2 someday. Blue and violet are two of my four favorite colors, so I really like that color.
200 extra horsepower and the Touring is still 0.1s slower than the 11.0 second stock M3/M4 Comp previously tested by Carwow? Didn’t realize it was that much heavier.

£110k for a M2! That's crazy.
Well it's heavily modified and pumping out 700hp. And it has a manhart body kit. So I guess that justifies the price.

Hey Sam YOU do know that downshifting is good for race cars but NOT good on others, Downshifting is not necessary
Modern brake systems are capable of working in most conditions, and downshifting can put extra stress on the drivetrain.
Downshifting is useful
Downshifting can be smoother and more productive than braking, and it can save on brake wear and tear. Downshifting can also be necessary when going down a long, steep grade to give the brakes a break.
Downshifting can be damaging
Downshifting can damage the drivetrain, especially the transmission, and can shorten the engine's lifespan. Engine braking also uses more gas than regular braking.
