M2 xDrive will be a game changer.
Especially for those that want the thrills but still need the security of AWD.
Would be a better choice over the RS3 Sedan, which doesn't come in coupe.
Looking forward to this

Doubt that..the M4 look is well above that of a G87. Only reason I'm not taking a G87 because it looks like a young man's car..suitable for gentleman under 35...looks alone..not price. G82 commands much more presence and is very aggressive. Don't get this twisted.

That is a big gap between G84 start of production in mid 2028 (likely in country only end of that year) and Feb 2027. I suppose it is the consequence of going all-in on EV and (like Porsche) doing an about turn on it.

You'll be forced to go EV with the ZA0 in that time period. If sales are good enough maybe they won't bother with the mild hybrid and leave ICE for the M2?

Sweet spot for what though? If you're after an M4 or M3 (or M5 or M8) an M2 won't scratch that itch. Reverse also applies. I think values will be fine on the M4. The owners of every 'small' car think there is only one silver bullet keeping it from beating the bigger brother in sales somehow and then all those buyers will flock to it. X drive ain't it IMHO.

We already know what happens when there are two 'equivalent' cars in market and if that was remotely true, nobody would have bought the M4/Comp over the F87 M2. granted it had 2 years of extra production, but the M4 outsold the M2 2 to 1.

The M2 X Drive will destroy RS3 and the few remaining CLA45 sales for sure.

You need to go drive an F1x and F9x M quite soon. If neither are for you go and look at Ghosts... I mean 760Lis :ROFLMAO:
