LIVING WITH THE NEW BMW G87 M2 | WORTH BUYING? 

I’ve had 400 miles on my G87. Not yet through break in, but I LOVE IT! So glad to hear another BSM (black) owner say he considered satin PPF and decided he liked it glossy. Mine is getting out this week with full body STEK Dynoshield to let more of that metallic flake shine through. I’m also contemplating gold or bronze summer tire wheels. Tough to find a set I really like though.

I like the way G87 looks especially in TR. Imo looks better than G80/82

I’ve concluded that I’m just a grumpy old man now. I look back with nostalgia for the cars of my youth and irrationally don’t like anything made today. There are vehicles I would buy today sure, but I’d much rather have a car from 10 or 20 or even 30 years ago. Is this what happens when you get old, is this why my parents didn’t like the cars that I now love?

I've got one on order, this video helped me solidify my decision! 🙌

Super sharp .. super versatile ! The drive in London showed daily use and ease of ownership. Out in the country, on the highway, it’s fantastic .. the two experiences compared really help the person looking to purchase .. this video really helps !

Look forward to hearing your thoughts on the M3 Touring, as an M340i Touring owner that would be my next purchase if I could afford it.

I say forget the look....you cant even see it when you are driving....S58 with small figure...sold

I have an M2 in order, it's fully loaded, carbon package and M Performance Height Adjustable Suspension

I do agree with how the lighter color on the newer BMW M2 looked eh, but when it was in full black out looked menacing.

Funny, I am the opposite...I didn't fully appreciate previous gen M2's and this one looks amazing to me. I'm considering one, because I love the motor and the styling.

I love the F87 M2 and the G87 is growing on me but I’m just curious how the M240i of precious is an excellent daily driver but the M2 is not? So far most of the content I’ve seen on G87 is how to make it look reasonably appealing with body kits and parts. I realize the new M2 is a comfortable daily but you’ve said comfortable as it should be but I’m not sure M cars were ever really comfortable they always had harsher suspension and a raw appeal to them maybe as I get older I just want to go back to where cars were more analog. Hopefully the refresh will fix some of the styling of the G87 we’ll have to see but if I were to spend the money I think I would go for a gently used M2CS over the G87 just my .02

I find myself agreeing with you Paul. 👌😉 I like the m3 touring in black.

One of your best videos. Keep it up.

Mine goes in this Thursday for the 1200 mile break-in service. I have also owned a 2022 M4 Competition xDrive Convertible. The M2 is more fun to drive in my opinion than the M4. Don't get me wrong, I loved the M4, but I beginning to like the M2 better.

Supercars of London Great Review I think that G87 M2 is awesome and I think you should get one for the Channel

I have a Toronto red M2 that is “ready for transport” at the factory. I am not sure when I will get it, ugh. I was wondering if anyone has put the M performance lowering springs on it to get the right tire to fender gap that it needs. I am worried about lowering it and then having BMW get bitchy on warranty items.

I’ve had one since August, best car I’ve ever owned (and I’ve had a lot of things over the years)

I think all the owners hate the Dodge truck front and cheap Ford Mustang display, feminine touches of stamping on the door vinyl, but like the performance.

Saw a black one in Germany recently and they have quite the road presence!

Interested to know with the present cost of insurance premiums how much Archie is paying for his M2 with all the mods he has fitted?!!

Nice Car

the Blanck m2, what's the brand of the rear defuser

Bmw m2 or z4 m40i?

The M3 touring is not available in the states. Many Americans don’t appreciate estates .. it’s a shame. I’d love the M3 Touring ..

I have had my G87 for 2 months now. Have come from M5 f90 comp. Must say love the M2 more than M5. Although the M5 had all the power the M2 is so much more fun.

I wanted to get a F87 M2 Competition, but I came into the market too late. Now I have an order for a G87 M2 so I am happily playing the waiting game.

They still haven't figured out reliability, which is why I won't touch their products with a bargepole.

Love it

It’s the best looking car BMW makes, I think it’s beautiful. My only criticism is that it should have a body colored front lip. I pick up my next weekend

I like the look of the previous M2 more.

I love the look of the M2

Yeah Paul buy one if it's really what you want and you enjoy it .and you've had BMW's before and please please buy another lamborghini again .as well as a BMW .that's your dream garage again.from Dan.m👍👍👍🚘🚘

I hated this color until I saw it in person. Damnit BMW lol

It’s ugly as fuck for sure, especially in this color but it is a great car overall, there is no denying it.

man my first time back on this channel for years, how come your view count has gone down so much?

Great video...Archie comes across so much better speaking off the cuff about cars rather than hyping up something on his own channel. Has to be a lesson there.

They don't look anywhere near as good as the last one, but they look pretty mean in Black...Ha !

AutoIDs m2 looks amazing

This is Bloody old school, it looks like from the 80s, that’s why it looks stunning! Thank goodness BMW didn’t design it ‘new school’.

It’s slowly growing on me. By the time it fully wins me over, maybe I’ll be able to afford it 😂

I have an older 3-series saloon......it has the right mix of curves versus square'ish corners. True the driver doesn't see the outside too much, but when I come out my front door every day and set eyes on it, it needs to look great. Archie's car is more bearable, but BMW.....what were you thinking!

There are good reasons the M2 isn't sold like Archie's, which admittedly looks brilliant, especially the front splitter. Archie's made a track weapon, but his spec is compromised for the road. The ride quality will be significantly compromised and the splitter is simply impractical on UK roads. You talked about how you ruined your previous gen. M2 for the road and simply made it a track weapon. When are you going to start listening to yourself and resist ruining a car purchased for the road for use on the road???!!! When you finally grow up, you will realise that when it comes to road cars, BMW and its multi-billion Euro developments know better than some guy from Watford, and any other individual from anywhere! That said; BMW is missing out on money by not offering a version setup for the track, like Archie's, and letting the aftermarket take the money.

Pocket rocket. Imagine it in xdrive

it is odd, but everyone who sees mine says they love it. I would not have expected that.

You had a Nissan GTR and now this thing? Ok

The new m2 is like the old m3 deffo 😁😁

I cannot imagine anyone noticing this car Stopped when saw who friend was

Need a new cameraman, he forgot we want to look at the car

Drink everytime he says "yea"

6k views in a day how is this channel still goin 🤔 Chris already told us its good no need for this .

Yeap.... 1st M Made in Mexico impress u? So wil there b M Made in Asia? I still prefer M Made in germany by german!

You should get a G80 M4 and tune the hell out of it 🔥🔥🔥

The front of the M2 looks awful, a mix of shapes which don't complement one another.

Oh yea

What's with all these channels doing stupid thumbnails of pretending to walk while looking at the car 😂

Sucking upto manufacturers again...?? Just say its ugly and move on

BMW Launches M3 G80 Me: OMG this is the ugliest BMW I've ever seen, BMW can't do much worse than this BMW Launching the M2 G87: Watch this...

Previous model was waaaaaaaaaaay more beautiful

Old M2 and this generation will never be classics, they're too new. There wont be enough time for them to become classics. Use them as daily drivers.

blah blah blah

Yawn Yawn

I would never buy this car and that's just based on the looks, can't get over it and time won't make this look any better.

Confused at why your channel is still going.

Made in Mexico 🇲🇽 that’s all you need to know.

Baby blue is the worst colour on the M2
