I've been SO excited to drive this! It's the all-new BMW M2. While the looks may not be to everybody's tastes, the drivetrain surely is. Paul Maric checks out the latest pocket rocket from BMW's M division.

Yep have ordered and soon to be delivered m2 in Toronto red with carbon pack and manual. Also have a heap of carbon parts to add from the uk. Front splitter, rear defuser, carbon steering wheel with info panel etc I think it looks much better in the flesh and let’s face it in 5 years we will all miss these types of cars.

Nice one Paul. Not a fan of BMW, but the handeling tricks reminds me of my 69 302 Boss Stang. Not as controlled as this, but just more stupid awsome rawness, with no nannies. Have give any thought on a Moo/Roo test. 😊😊

My neighbor got this exact car. The baby blue is not my color at all and the front end has a very odd look. The best way I can describe it is when you see a parked car that has been vandalized and its missing the grill and has holes in the bumper where the foglights should be. Those are the styling elements that totally miss the mark with this design. I think sapphire black metallic would work wonders on concealing these things and to be blunt, would be the only color I would get this car in...
