I'm Driving A BMW M2 For 3 Months: What Do You Want To Know?
TeamCT’s long-term test garage has received an injection of BMW M Division this week, and it’s all thanks to the arrival of this jolly handsome M2. It’ll sit alongside ‘our’ Ford Mustang GT, and the Civic Type R we’ve been running since April - albeit just for a couple of weeks until we hold back the tears and send it back to Honda.
It’s finished in Long Beach Blue, and - as requested by an overwhelming majority of CTzens in a poll we ran a few months back - it’s rocking the six-speed manual gearbox, as opposed to the seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.
We have a busy schedule in mind for the M2, involving twin tests with competitors and BMW’s own cars, a hot date with Colin - Alex’s E36 M3 - road trips, and a lot more. Most importantly, we want to answer this question over the next three months: is the M2 a worthy M car?
As ever though, we want you guys to get involved with your own suggestions. Is there a particular aspect of M2 ownership you want to know about? Do you think there’s a car we simply have to test it against? Want to know how many bottles of Candyup fit in the boot? Hit the comments section now at let us know.
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

If i could fit in it, i’m 6’6” and 240 lbs. I’d love to see it tested against an S3 Audi.
Is it how is it better than the M4 & what is it lacking from the M4
M2 vs M4 test already booked for late October :)
Spoiler alert: they will like the M2 more than the M4.
Scenario: at a red light. M2 sitting there, M3/M4 pull up….who feels like they ‘won in life’?
The Guy/Girl in the M4. The M4 looks natural with the M-Suit, while the M2 looks kind of inflated and bubbly. The M3 also has 4 doors….
How does it compare to its rivals as a daily driver
Does it rust as quickly as Uncle Colin?
Nothing rusts as quickly as Colin. Other than Phil.
Test it against phil.
How does a baby feel about riding in an M2?
Hmmmm… M2 vs. Mustang GT?
That would be very interesting! I imagine the results rustling many jimmies!
Nurburgring test track ?
Drag race with adnan e46 and alex e36?
Adnan doesnt have an e46, he sold it a while ago
