"When you're in it you can't see the outside so shut the fuck up" - Chris Harris

My question is do you get the M wing on the back or not. I don't like the rest of the M stick on carbon bits but the black rear carbon wing to match the black carbon roof...

If you think this looks bad I'm going to call the police.
In stock form though it does look pretty bad from lots of angles in yas marina periwinkle or whatever it is.

i think its easier to make the m4 less ugly than to make the m2 into that.

The m4 just needs a nose job, or steal the bumper off the base 3 series.

My problem with the M2 is how much it weighs. Holy fuck a car that size and it's 3,300 - 3,600lbs depending which transmission it's spec'd with???

My wifes 128i was already 3200lb and that thing has jack shit all inside. The new one at 3814lb is utterly insane. Thats a hair away from 4000lbs which is like what my old maserati used to weigh.

There aren't really any good looking new cars cheaper than a 718, even with the 20k worth of parts (probably closer to 30k) I think the m2 comes in, and you could fit at least one human in the back.

Car and Driver timed the 2023 VW Golf R with the seven-speed DSG transmission. A 0-to-60-mph run took a mere 3.9 seconds.

2023 Porsche 718 Cayman 0-60 Time: 4.9 seconds

AWD helps more than a little bit.

Still, a good car.

Thats awesome. I prefer the slower 7.5s due to looks though. Much better looking cars.

Watched this yesterday and had a grand old laugh. Harris being extra testy. Awesome review.

Wonder if that's due to him being able to speak his mind again since TG is wrapping up?

Typical bmw fun. 472 bucks for this part and 2h of labor. Joy
Make sure you carefully seal back up the vapour barrier to the door insides when swapping out the window regulator otherwise you're going to get leaks into the cabin. Ask me how I know lol.

N52 is typically laughed at by N54 douchebaggery on the internet but honestly after owning my 335i for a year and a half after going from my 330i there are definitely big benefits to keeping an N52.

I definitely miss the simplicity of the platform and the much lower cost of ownership compared to relative beating I can give to it. I've never hesitated to go full beans on the S2S or to Kelowna in my 330i. Paired up with a the 3.64 differential and suspension mods and it made driving it incredibly fun (for example, keeping up with a Cayman on S2S).

Looking back I specifically wanted the 330i for the three stage intake manifold but if I was to do it again the optimal move would be a 328i 6 speed RWD, 328 automatic X Drive differential, and an n54 intake manifold. With the n54 manifold you gain more power top end but lose it bottom end meanwhile the diff compensates for the bottom end loss.

Do what you will with that knowledge haha
