Wow, it’s fascinating how personal taste can differ so much. To me, the OEM design is spot-on, aggressive yet minimalistic, and perfectly suited for a bold, masculine look. The previous M2 models, like the 2022, had a more classic European vibe, which felt a bit softer and more refined. The new M2, on the other hand, reminds me of a Dodge Challenger in its spartan, muscular character, which I absolutely love. There is no right or wrong here, just incredible diversity in how we perceive design. I don’t own one, but if I did, I wouldn’t change a thing.
Agree with everything you said about the way this car drives. It’s a beast in terms of handling, power, and breaking. An absolute proper 4 seater sports car. After driving it for 4 months, and pulling a 1.14g on a corner without sweating my balls off is very satisfying!
Great stuff! Why don’t you develop a new grill with vertical slats that has a frame. I’m sure that will make the biggest improvement on the front end. Cheers!
Having had the og and m2 comp, I can say with all honesty that i couldn't wait for the work day to end just so i could high tail that f87 comp back home. What rang true and rather disappointing in your video is when you state (paraphrasing) that you're not excited or think about getting back in and driving the g87 again. I bought the wife the new z4. While objectively its quick, handles like a humming bird on highway, shifts/turns in quickly, it just feels LIFELESS. This is why i ordered an Emira hoping to love driving again! Thanku for your terrific content.
This is the kind of car that needs to grow on you,at first you don’t like it but after a while you have to give credit to the people at BMW for doing a great job👍
Currently running f87 which i love 100% agree with your view on the g87 find it hard to like certain angles good but that front weird However looks better with your carbon kit on than stock from the factory
When I first saw the M2 G87 , I thought it was a wind up and thought it was ugly as sin. Now I’ve seen them more they’ve grown on me , but you’re correct about the grille , it makes the front end look like a Halfords special ..
Planning to buy an M2 once they release the comp (if they release it) + your body kit next year, after our Canadian winter. Thinking matte black with Apple space grey matte wheels.
Disagree about the from end: i think the stock front looks better than all of that carbon fiber stuff you have added, especially considering the added cost.
Will you do any engine tuning? Also do you think the Will put a competition model out. I hope not I've got mine coming next month, if a competition model came out would be more power and lower? Nice work lads keep it going
How much are they over there? In Australia they're $140k AUD (~$73k pounds). The previous gen was $110k AUD ($57k pounds) Shame the price has jumped up so much.
I had one of the last M2s last gen. It was a ac schnitzer was a nice thing the one thing I remember was the traction. It was notably brilliant just grips
I picked mine up from Northampton dealership on Saturday gone! Went with Toronto Red with all black wheels so it's as it is from factory and I actually don't mind the naked looks for now!! But I'm sure that will wear thin I'm sure
@@NeilCrossyhaha, I guess your not a fan then? The car definitely needs some aesthetic upgrades though. Saying that, even stock I get lots of compliments on how beautiful it is. Strangely, mostly from elderly women 😂 TBH, I didn’t “learn” much as we don’t all have limitless cash to throw at a project.
@@Vgk36 to each his own I suppose. I feel a little sick when I see slammed cars skipping along on the road cause they have no suspension travel left, not to mention when they rip out their bumper on the most tame incline.
I’m pleased to see you boys out there doing “the Lords Work” be certain to thank Him for His blessings. Nice content you are creating. I like the passion for excellent design, and quality products that you produce. I’ll be making a purchase when my M240i arrives.
That's finally a car I can see menay people adusting to their needs, the past models were barely styled, literally looked all stock with slight adjustments, this is a real BMW for those who love to tune and style. BMW delivered a foundation for everyone to make it what they love it to be. Remember e36's? Yeah, that's an e36 lifestyle car: Do what you want with it, tune it, style it, change it, adjust it, until you have what you want. In 10-15 years this one will be the "boke hood youth car" overstyled and overtuned to extremes :)
Lol luv autoid but wish you would supply mounting hardware then I could purchase your mk8 golf gti rear spoiler,as don’t do glued on heard they can and have come off on motorways etc
The 230i is the one to get. I've tested the m2 it's probably juat a vit too much of a beast for a daily in winter in the UK. But the 2025 2 series coupe 230i 265bnp feels like 300bhp. Try them back to back. You'll be amazed.
That's my dilemma. I live in NW Ohio where bad winters are hit or miss. Really like this car and have done ok with rwd cars for the past 15 years or so since I switch over to a winter tire and wheel package (except for the occasional blizzard or ice storm of course). But it is kind of a hassle and not cheap. Kind of thinking of trading my Challenger 1320 for one of these or an RS3 which has awd, but may wait until next year for the xdrive M2, but don't want to pay more than 65k and I'm sure there will be an increase for that option. Yeah I know some will say just get a beater and I've looked, but would really like an older Cherokee and it's hard to find one that's still in good shape and not easy to take a loan out on a vehicle that old.
The basic of driving.... Your position is too reclined. Your arms form an angle of 140/150 degrees rather than the optimal 90/100. Place your seat properly and the space in the back will be massively increasing. When the second driver is at the wheel he is consantly lifted from the back of the seat.
12:39 i love AUTOID and the comment say crabon fiber and the and then also comment and say g87 M2 winners AUTOID and comment and say Jacks wearing bootcut.
Sorry to say but you added a lot of carbon but has a car guy you should have know that carbon on a black car does not work! Put it on the toronto red car and than the cabon would pop!
7 years from now we will all be criticizing and laughing about the era when most manufacturers went to all screen displays and buttonless and how dated they will look. Guaranteed
Nah soz like, everyone is entitled to their opinions obviously, but I can't take anyone seriously who sticks that absolute horrific monstrosity of a rear wing onto the car and claims it improves the aesthetic. Generally speaking, M cars are for grown ups, they're priced out of the affordability of youngsters, and that wing is something a teenager would stick on their 12 year old Honda Civic next to a not very witty rearrangement of the badging to spell out some childish word. Come on man do what you want but don't say "YOU have to change this" cos that's just out of touch.
There are a LOT of G87 Owners running wings. The TRE wing was always going to be controversial but it's designed with purpose creating a 50/50 downforce distribution from the rest of our Body Kit producing 108KG downforce at 120mph. Jack didn't actually say 'you have to change the rear wing' vehicle styling is subjective, if you'd like OEM+ Products we have them available too, we cater for the basic market as well as those who want to take it that step further.
I love AUTOID. Carbon Fibre. G87 M2, Winners, AUTOID. Jack's wearing boot cuts. No, I did not know that Nathan has prestik'd pubes to his face for a beard.
The car is perfect, don’t add any aftermarket crap and lessen its value and desirability of the 90%. Everyone trying to convince you bmw has it all wrong but they didn’t have a part in designing it, their all Monday morning quarterbacks, consumers or aftermarket pundits.
As the owner of a g82c and a 992 gt3, and virtually every M and 911, BMW is going from bad to worse on this generation unfortunately. Sure the car will spit amazing numbers. But it lacks every single bit of engagement. Sad, cause that being fixed, it would be one of the greatest cars. The S58 is the best 6 cylinder engine, and I’m including porsche engines there too. Nothing comes close to the S58 but unfortunately porsche is so far ahead on engagement..I really miss my F87! Hence why an F87 is still just as much as a new G87
Its an awful looking car in stock form. You have made them look a hell of alot better with these bits. Its the worst looking M car ever produced but black works wonders for it. If I was ever to get one it would have to look like this and in this colour. Im currently in a f87 m2 and im not tempted at all by these. Be looking at the g80 m3 next I think.
Wow, it’s fascinating how personal taste can differ so much. To me, the OEM design is spot-on, aggressive yet minimalistic, and perfectly suited for a bold, masculine look.

Interesting comments gents I get some of them but I don't see anything wrong with how the car looks as standard !!!
That’s fair bud, we are a vehicle styling shop in fairness hence us caring a lot more about the exterior 👌🏼
You should stop by your local optometrist
I did and he said they were perfect 😅
@@ThomasFish-j3p
Optometrist, not your Mrs. 😂😂

Please check your spelling on braking; hope to God you got it wrong, because I don’t want mine breaking.😉😉
Great stuff!
Why don’t you develop a new grill with vertical slats that has a frame. I’m sure that will make the biggest improvement on the front end.

This right here is exactly what I’ve been thinking and would be a massive improvement

Thanks 🙏
The best looking m2
This channel has sold me on the M2. I can’t wait to get mine.

Agreed eddy.

I personally love the factory look… making me want another BMW! Lol
Great video!
I think I’m the only person that loves the front end on this car
I’m looking to buy an M2 here in the States…so I subbed…and commented!

Can I get a link to that wing? Please!
How much are they over there? In Australia they're $140k AUD (~$73k pounds).
The previous gen was $110k AUD ($57k pounds)
Shame the price has jumped up so much.
Sadly, I'm still waiting for my M2 but that SET button pressing to disable the speed warning is a great tip!!
Glad it helped!
What's the wheel specs. Need something similar for when i get mine
Do you need to get wireless charging to allow your phone to start the car?
Great work on the car. Enjoyed you guys sharing experiences opinions comparisons. Nice 👍
Hey :) @Autid
Which rims are on the M2?
Very nice Vid!
Greetings from Germany :)
I had one of the last M2s last gen. It was a ac schnitzer was a nice thing the one thing I remember was the traction. It was notably brilliant just grips
Carbon fibre seat backs! Yes 🙌
I picked mine up from Northampton dealership on Saturday gone! Went with Toronto Red with all black wheels so it's as it is from factory and I actually don't mind the naked looks for now!! But I'm sure that will wear thin I'm sure
Congrats buddy, amazing cars, you know where we are if you start to get bored 🫡
very dope ride, gratz! The only personal touch I would've done is dark wheels on deeper dishes.
Hotkeys are clutch
i use them in my g31.
sport displays, home address, sub-woofer level, etc
GT4 lap times and still go to the shops. Brilliant car, love mine.
Great review gentlemen.
A 1 day owner of a new G87. Looking forward to learning more about my new car through this channel.
hopefully you ignored most of it, anyone who sticks that rear wing onto a car should be immediately avoided as a source of influence

Pretty sure the blue wrapping is still on the driving seat M2 logo
Mate your out of touch. The new m2 is way nicer looking than m4
will jacks m2 be getting the adro g87 kit when released or that other redesign kit thats been doing rounds on the internet?
front bumpah is more shatty than rear.
They put space between the wheels and fender to allow for suspension movement. You know, for potholes, bumps and things like that.
Ah, makes sense.
Whatever it's gross. lol

@@marcandrecoutu4798 I’m more like as long as you can’t stick a finger between top of tire and fender I’m good 🙂
They do a grille with a single bar same style as the CS M3
Fantastic video
Looks great!

Hahaha sounds good to us, looking forward to hearing from you 🎉
I think the carbon high kick spoiler would’ve made this look amazing. I’d ditch the Honda trunk wing.

Nothing better than the original m performance parts from bmw..
AUTOID rules! Well done. Will be ordering front splitter shortly.
that was quite the bang at 13:57!
Sounded a lot worse on camera, don’t worry
ya your not doing snow with m2 thats why i gettting m240i

Very Nice...
I totally disagree I think the car looks great standard it does not need splitters lowering or spacers the front end is great BMW nailed it
I like the splee-ah.
12:39 i love AUTOID and the comment say crabon fiber and the and then also comment and say g87 M2 winners AUTOID and comment and say Jacks wearing bootcut.
I would love if this g87 was xdrive light and fast 💨
On a black color the front vents carbon don’t make a difference in looks….
Sorry to say but you added a lot of carbon but has a car guy you should have know that carbon on a black car does not work!
Put it on the toronto red car and than the cabon would pop!
Coulda used a few before and after shots, boys.
Sorry bud, you can check our other videos of the series to see it in bone stock form though.
7 years from now we will all be criticizing and laughing about the era when most manufacturers went to all screen displays and buttonless and how dated they will look. Guaranteed
Great car. Liked the look of your M240i more though.
I just don't understand why the car is soooo heavy! It's only a 2 series!
So glad I watched this that bleeping was driving me mad
Glad to have helped!
you can turn it permanently off in the menu, it will still blink but it's muted. You can also change your M mode and it's completely off
