2 Series [Official] BMW 2 Series (F22) Coupe

[lukeswiss]

I want a 6 or a 2...

You can't get nappa in a 2, which is annoying. I can't even find anything from Individual.

I know it sounds silly.... but lack of active cruise control is a deal breaker for me. I can't believe they would add driving assistant/blind spot assistant and forget active cruise control. Strange packaging. I'm sure it's coming at a later stage.

I'm going to test drive it anyway. This car is such a hottie.

Very popular already, saw the 2er everwhere in Germany. Most were M235i.

Ha...see @Sunny. I'm not the only one.

Luke, here we don't even get blind spot assistance, only lane keeping assistance.

Along with the S3, the 2 would have been on my radar had it had the full gamut of driver assistance aids. Because like you said, the car is such a hot little package otherwise.

^Yes, apparently these days the only acceptable reason to buy a car is for it's sporting credentials... yet ironically the most 'driving' people do is sit in traffic between their house and the office.

 

[Zafiro]

Make me wonder how people went to work and home 10 years ago.....but who I'm I to judge, I haven't even parking sensor or start and stop.

 

[lukeswiss]

I guess largely the same but with more accidents... You shouldn't be shocked by early adopters .... They test all these system for you, so that in 10 years you can take it for granted and wonder why you ever went without. Would you want a car without ESP these days?

I've been driving for 20 years and not single car accident. I'm not spoiled, people are too comfy these days. If I die it's not because a lack blind spot assist. If I want something really badly I'll get it, no matter what. But again, that's me and I won't change my opinion about this subject. Regarding Eps, thank god it gives the option to turn it off.

Back when I was driving Bimmers first thing I did when I get in was turn the start/stop engine function and DTC off.
I just hate it when the car is pressing the brakes itself... every time I go through tram rails a bit faster... the reason I almost got hit by a GTI that was tailgating me and didn't expect me to slow down on a straight with no cars in front of me(I wasn't expecting it either)

PS: Fcuk ESP, DTC, DCT, AT, ABS, Electric freakin windows and most of all... these fcukin radios!!!! I can't hear the revs of mah dieZle!!!!

The BMW M2 begins to take shape. Now with M quad exhausts.

And we are just weeks away from the reveal of the 2er Cabrio. Its all about product.

Would you want a car without ESP these days?

My daily driver doesn't even have ABS, assisted steering or electric windows and I love every day of it.

 

[Merc1]

M2 Convertible please!

The rest of the series. Some of the parts (like the front and rear quarter panels) seem to be heavily inspired by the M235i Racing.

I might be in love with the upcoming M2

Hi!

Yes it is influenced by the M235i Racing and the more M like Vision Gran Turismo.
You will see elements of both in the M2.
