I'd get one if I didn't have kids... oh and if we had a track.

M2 Comp is almost a new car. Because of EU regulations BMW has stopped production on the M2.

No it's not. As I said before it's the same car with a new engine, seats, revised front struts, and a few cosmetic changes. Same underpinnings, same rear suspension, same transmissions, same differential, same body, same interior, same headlights, and taillights, etc. The N55 engine had to be discontinued due to EU regulations, hence the S55 engine but the car itself was not discontinued.

I never said the car is Discontinued. - What I said was the current Production of M2 has stopped.
It is not just a LCI. It is much more than a LCI from what I have read and seen.

I am actually thinking about the M2 Competition in standard transmission and just say fuck it about practicalities. lol.

Wife has a Q5 so that's practical enough and she never wants to drive my cars anyways so standard is no big deal. Only thing with M2 is that I felt it was just way too small/tight for me.

I think you just let it slip that you bought YET ANOTHER car

You can only let something slip if it's something is unknown to begin with.

Congrats shakalaka!

Must have missed it, I swore last week his wife drove a Range Rover.

I’m letting my beyond use get casual.

[shakalaka]

Haha no no I definitely haven't bought a new car. Just got the winter tires changed and a Bubble's in and out clean-up on the 5 series today (the scratches are a little worse than I initially thought). I am going to stick with this until next summer if I can and then get something else at that point. I will try to get out of BMW if I can, if not will just get something else at that time and will think about the M2/M3/M4 or maybe M5 if I want to ball all the way out. Or knowing me, who the fuck knows X5.. lol

kill - it's not that confusing we are a family of 4 (sort of a joint family - us and my parents). We lived together until I got work in Edmonton and kind of 'moved out' but we are usually together on weekends and some weekdays since I am attending courts all over. Between us there are 6 vehicles including the RR, Q5 and couple other Benz's (non-AMG) so technically speaking I shouldn't really get bored as I take what I want. I am just 'allowed' to go nuts with one of those cars that I swap around crazily for the lack of better word. lol

On a side note, I've been going on AMG PL again lately and I've been craving an AMG vehicle. I just wish I could get out of BMW without taking a massive hit and pick up an AMG. Waiting the entire term is one option but literally impossible for me.

Oh you count your parents cars. Got it.

That’s a cultural thing I just do not understand. Haha

Haha must be an East Indian thing, plus also since I drive whichever one I want when I want. Especially when I gotta go on longer trips to obscure court locations, I take the Escalade to avoid the mileage on the other cars lol. Strictly speaking between just the wife and I, then there's my car, the Q5 and the motorcycle. Nothing crazy!

Pretty sure there was a white guy on here that counted parents' cars before

The dude who's dad has a Caterham always used to say "ours" IIRC. To each, their own. (or their parents' as well, in some cases haha)

If you can drive it whenever you want, it's yours. I'm sure my mom would lend me her 2003 Corolla if I asked.

Last time I lent my dad my truck he spilled paint in the fucking cab. It's a God damn truck ffs. My wife can drive if I'm drunk.

I've never watched an Edmunds-produced review before. That was horrible

[Buster]

I think they just got Carlos over to do some of this stuff. But this was bad, I agree.

I actually don't mind him. I'm used to watching Head 2 Head though, which I find so much better.
