I have trouble remembering not to lose my license in the M2. With a full-tune S58 in G8x comp package it would be just a hammer you can’t use unless you’re feeling lucky.

Since you’re a E86 owner, I don’t think BMW is going to have much left for you. Even my M2C doesn’t have that seating position or packaging of a true sports car. I am hoping to drive a Supra sometime but I passed on them because no manual. If the pandemic didn’t throw a wrench into things I’d have gotten a 997.2 C2S or 981 Cayman S and called it a day.

I’m actually looking forward to an electric Boxster. It could be awesome.
Pretty much anything past about 300 hp, falls in that category. About the only time you can use them in real life is blasting up an onramp and then shutting it down as you approach traffic.
