Well, the earlier numbers mentioned were in the 150kg range for the weight gain so 96-97kg (210lbs) seems not as bad, relatively speaking. Most cars get bigger and heavier with every new generation so 5-6% increase in weight seems ok to me as long as it is balanced with equal or higher amount of improvement in power, brakes, tire width etc.

We might end up in a situation where the M3 is cheaper :

Seriously doubt that. Important to keep in mind the only wheels on the m3 that are base price are ass-ugly. So thats a +$1300 charge regardless. I'm sure you could spec an M2 to over M3 base price, but that's not apples to apples.

I’m surprised that they are still going to allow the G87 to be ordered with a slicktop in Canada.I thought it would be either sunroof or carbon fibre roof.The M Sport Seats and the 6MT are standard so i would just need to add the premium package,shadowline headlights,M Carbon Roof,M Seat Belts,M Carbon Fibre Trim,wireless device charging and black exterior contents which i assume means black mirror caps.
That M Carbon Package is a total ripoff.The other item that is over charged is the M Carbon Fibre Trim.In comparison it’s available as option on the M340i in Canada for $600.It will be interesting to see what the demand for these is going to be,with the price being significantly higher than when the original M2 was released. |

the M carbon package is actually not as much as a ripoff as I thought originally: 2350 - upgrade from vernasca to merino (taken from 3 series configurator) 5500 - carbon bucket seats (taken from m3 configurator) 1000 - carbon fibre trim 1900 - M carbon roof 2450 - M driver's package ____ 13,200 total value but they are only charging 12,500 for it |

I also don’t see any info regarding the full merino leather.Does it mean that the M Carbon Fibre buckets just come in Merino leather?Because full merino leather usually means that you get the seats in merino leather,the lower part of the dash in merino leather and the area around the center console in merino leather.They also include the dash and the upper part of the driver and passenger door in Nappa leather. |
