I've been wanting to get these out for a while but had to hold back due to international embargos which were lifted this morning.

the purple paint and the small stature of the 2 series coupe is my cup of tea! I like how this is interpreted! 🤩

What’s the delta kerb weight between the previous gen n the new one? I supposed the xdrive at at least 300kilos ?

About 220kg difference if we're talking about the M240i with the new one gaining xDrive, almost 40 more horses, a nicer interior and A LOT more tech.

Some independent videos are coming out with the new M240i xDrive hitting 0-60 in under 4 seconds.

Nice .. with each iteration n the WLTP , the car becomes more subtle.. does it still drive like it should be or it move like every other M car does

Oh yes, also with quite a lot more refinement over the outgoing 2er because of the 3/4series platform as opposed to a 1 series platform.

Don't just take my word for it, 3.79 seconds. Only difference was our car was fitted with softer winter tires.
