      Simply, no.

      I worked for BMW when they were developing the OG M2.

      A lot correct but a lot still left on the table.

      Adding the S55 to that chassis was not the answer I personally was looking for.

      I would add to the E46 M3 because that car on it's own is just one car on it's own.

      Buy it some friends lol

        Looking to add a E90 M3 to the garage, don't care about anything newer coming from BMW.

          As soon as I had to remove a wheel to change a lightbulb on the E91, I knew the E46 was the newest BMW I’d ever own.

              I’ve driven the M2C on an autocross course. Super fun and capable car, but not really a better experience than a (modded especially) E46. Steering is significantly worse, engine is worse IMO, chassis and suspension are better, stock brakes are better. Thought about adding one as a daily a couple years ago actually but somehow ended up with both an E39M and new Miata instead for similar amount of cash. There’s a lot I could do to my E46 for the additional cost delta to the CS to remedy its relative shortcomings and further reduce weight.

                Thanks all for your feedback, I would like to say I am keeping the M3 .

                Next year in February I would finish 15 years owning the car

                  Agreed. It not only sounded better but it does without that stupid ugly CS grill. Still would keep the 46M though

                      M2 will not stand the test of time as well. CS is well regarded, but not at $90k. With that money I would get something with the engine where back seats would be...

                      E46 is the unanimous classic for a reason.

                          bad idea. I sold my IR/IR when i got my M2C and immediately regretted it. So much so that i sold the M2C 8 months later and got an even better e46 out of texas. The M2C is a great car on its own, but soul less as hell. The s55 sounds terrible and is not really all that playful. I also couldnt fall in love with the looks of it--i never really found myself looking back at it. One of the only cars that i can think of that looks worse lowered. Its also gigantic compared to the e46.

                            I thought the M2C has similar dimensions to an E36?

                            I love the M2C and M2CS but cant get over the sound of the exhaust and numb steering. Otherwise would make for a fun little street car but only as a side chick and the E46 M as the trophy wife when you want to be seen
