2023 BMW M2: Manual or Automatic? I Run BOTH from 0-60 and The Results Are Staggering!

Publicado 2023-04-04
( www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! The 2023, G87 BMW M2 carries on the tradition of a manual transmission in M division's smallest and "purest" car (at least by most enthusiasts' standards). But just how much do you lose in 0-60 acceleration by going for it rather than the automatic? Andre tests out both versions in the Arizona desert.

    The new M2 reminds me of the late 80's early 90's euro era cars with the aftermarket body kits. I kinda like the nod to that era.

    Even in 2023, 3900lbs is definitely not lightweight.
  • @shaolin224
    That 4.4 sec in the manual was a respectable time Andre
  • @steveb540i
    It's a shame individual colors are not being offered. Not a huge fan of any of the exterior paint options.
  • @brelaxed13
    need to let the boost build up a little more before you let go of the brake
  • @mogradme8535
    I appreciate the word choice in "staggering" instead of like "shocking" or "surprising"
  • @enerim19
    That's the kind of Kidney Grill!! Nice!!
  • @florinvid
    Exciting car. Good real world review!
  • I feel like people at this point are just taking for granted the G87 is ugly, too boxy,because they've heard it so much. I think it looks awesome. Reminds me of the 2002 Homage. Although i will say it looks much better in certain colors than others. Still, this gen M2 would blow the doors of 99% of cars you're likely to see on public roads,and more than a few on the track. No doubt the weight (4000 lbs!!?on a 2 series??!)is a little bit of a turn-off, but at the end of the day I think this is the best all around sports car under 100k out of Europe right now.

    Did I just hear 3900lbs described as relatively lightweight? For a 2 door car that is very heavy, regardless of what it's competition weighs that is about 1000lbs over relatively lightweight and 1500lbs heavier than what I would call a lightweight car. I would describe it as a heavyweight car that is down nearly 100hp from a similarly sized American pony car.

    Most of the body parts on the front end are aluminum, which is metal but not magnetic. They are not plastic/composite. Only the front clip is plastic/composite.
  • @Dx-qg9jm
    you probably got some air drag from the nose hair, possibly causing the slow 0-60 time?
  • @sking2173
    Andre, when you show us the Dragy time, please be sure we can see it — the way I you flashed it at the camera, it was just a blur. There’s a lot of important info on that screen …

    Matt Watson on carwow did a 0 to 60 in 3.8 seconds
