Now that a couple of M2Cs has been spotted in the wild, did anyone manage gather any new information on the suspension changes in comparison to the M2.. ?

None apparently to the suspension.
Some rose joint bushes in place of rubber on the rear arms I presume and front strut braces.

Well isn't that special..

I guess at that price point, some things had to give..

The way the reviews read, it sounds like it's mostly revised software driven (EPS, E-Diff, DSC, ect) to smooth out the handling difference..

Kind of what they did with the M5..

Just to kill the flow of this topic and confirm the words of the head of engineering at BMW M.




ABSOLUTELY NOTHING




They only tuned software or in other words... Took the M3/M4 CS software and put it into M2C.

They also stiffened the front end (that's what she said ) with the CFRP strut brace and a bulkhead strut from M3/4. The BMW engineers will have you believe that's part of the "suspension retuning".
