Thanks!  It is still a work-in-progress.  Exhaust is next, starting with a downpipe the day I take her out of storage.  Hopefully wheels by the end of the summer, but the wife says i spend enough already on the car.  haha

Beautiful car, love the color. I go between MKE and Madison, so maybe I'll see you around!

Wow! not one, but 2 M2's under your belt. How was the wait list experience? What suspension set ups have you been running? Looks lower than stock, correct me if I'm wrong.

The waitlist period was dreadful. Haha. Took so long but any earlier wouldn’t have worked for me either because of my wedding and honeymoon, so it worked out very well in the end. 

On my 135i i was running KW V3s. The m2 has KW HAS kit with 10mm macht schnell spacers all around. I’m raising the front slightly though because the shitty roads in MKE are not conducive to such a low car with a front lip.

That’s the reason I don’t mess with the ride height. 

The car looks good, welcome.

needs more LBB. 

Good car regardless. M2 is the only new M car that sounds good, although I am somewhat biased since my last car was a pure stage 2 N55 1er. Every time I think I want to buy a Sakhir orange F80, I go back to youtube and remember how god-fucking-awful they sound. 

Enjoy the car.

Welcome, and nice car! I want to try sliding into an M2 in a few years if they drop in value enough, definitely a goal car for me

[Old School]

Welcome!!  Love the M2 in white.  Nice taste.

As for the Orange F cars, I hear you I_Love_cars!!!  My friend has a Sakhir M and in person it is sooooo nice.  Still love the blue, naturally aspirated flavor yet...

Welcome! Love the white!
