The good news is no one is confusing the G and F series cars.

Look at the Porsche 991 and 992- most can’t tell them apart.

On this new m2- that ain’t happening 🙄

Give it time they will go away… 💨

I’m here because I embrace change and I am excited for my forum buddies getting thier new shoes

That says something about how careful Porsche is to making changes

Hard not to respect thier careful way of evolving

I’m a g29 z4 owner for perspective. I really like the M2. It’s different, bold and solid looking. Very sharp car. Congrats.

Congratulations OP!
That’s what I always say! Both amazing looking cars with the F87 having the sexier more exotic lines while the G87 having the more muscular/aggressive look almost as if it’s the more grown up “men’s” version. And this isn’t belittling the F87 which I own and love

Maybe it comes down to whether you are attracted to feminine or masculine qualities. No judgement from me. Embrace what floats your boat!

Picked the car up last Friday, coming from a 2018 OG M2, this car feels incredibly tech forward and modern in comparison.

Interior:
The seats (bi-color sport seats) and very comfortable and much more supportive than the OG seats were. Comparable in support to the comp/m3/m4 f series seats but much more comfortable. New I-Drive also functions incredibly well and took mere minutes to setup and learn.

Exterior:
Probably the most debated and controversial area of this new car, half of those I’ve shown the car to (BMW CCA GGC) loved it and the other half said it will take some time to get used to. After washing it and taking the attached photos, I really love the design and shape of the g87. The car looks incredibly wide and looking out the side mirrors shows a great view of the massive rear fenders.

Performance/ Driving Impressions:
Tires, brakes, steering, suspension, and power all feel like sharp improvements from the standard f-series cars. With tons of adjustability the suspension brakes and steering all can be dailed into exactly what I need from the car. This car is FAST.

The downsides: if you have a small garage spot as I do. The new m2 is is longer and wider than before. But the added front sensors and HD rear camera help with this. Another gripe that will take some getting used to would be the driver assistance tech that keeps you In your lane, it can be de-activated but slightly annoying.

Overall, I’m very happy with the new car!
Pm for any questions!
Connor
Congratulations!

I got an M340i back in February and the M2 has been on my mind the last couple weeks...

If a manual pops up in black it would be hard to say no lol

The first time I saw a G87 in person the main thing I remember being wowed by were the massive tailpipes. Those aren’t talked about enough - I couldn’t believe they were stock.

Congratz on the new car!
Yes, I’m sure… come see one in person! Trust me, it took me a while to like it but to each their own! Also, not knocking the f87, still a beautiful car.
