That brake squeal does't sound like steel rotors all worn out, sounds like ceramics. I wonder if that will be an $8500 CDN option? lol

Could be just an aggressive pad they are using

I must say that rear flare is looking mighty good and sounds alright too. Please BMW give us some more colour choices. Don grey and Sakhir Orange oh and don't forget that CF roof.

I placed a deposit for the M2 before I flew out to pick up the M4. Now that it is officially happening, I'll be going back for sure. It'd be great to see a few familiar faces.

Sure does make a lovely noise when pulling away.
Need to make sure I can afford this car..Damn

SteveInfante · 06-17-2015, 05:50 AM

Hopefully I will be there with my 2 for the 6th of July! Maybe i might see it there. That would be cool.

Jackie Chiles · 06-17-2015, 06:16 AM

Nice!

It did not sound like an MT. . .

twin fed · 06-17-2015, 08:36 AM

Wow, this car is really shaping up, looks great, sounds great. I want one now!!!

Nah, likely DCT.

B-1Pilot · 06-17-2015, 09:27 AM

that sound coming out of karussel...

great engine note throughout, even in tempered driving scenes...

WOT shifts and in turns; sure sounds like a M-DCT to me...

nachob · 06-17-2015, 01:20 PM

Looked a little soft going around. I hope that was a dynamic suspension model and not the fixed setup.

davem3fan · 06-17-2015, 01:21 PM

Those were not manual shifts. Looks pretty darn cool.

duk · 06-17-2015, 01:21 PM

sounds better than S55?

also is it confirmed not to have CF roof?

bradleyland · 06-17-2015, 01:46 PM

Are my eyes playing tricks on me, or do I see some kind of air vent/scoop revealing itself on the front side of the rear fenders? That would be consistent with SCOTT26's comments about the M2 following the Vision GT's styling queues; albeit toned down.

It looks like the M2 base version gets the regular roof and the M2 CSL the CF roof:
