I agree on the M2 vs M4, I like the M2 better. However, M2 vs M3, that may be a different story. I think the flares on the F80 are awesome!

When I first saw the M4 in real life, I instantly loved the design. Although looking at these pics, the M2 looks just so well proportioned. I hope I love it in real life as well!

The proportions of the M2 design look perfect in comparison to the M4.The M4 design looks to long from the end of the doors,to the back of the car.

i agree. i wish the M2 rear flares were more like my M3 or 1M style but it was designed more like it's big bro M4.

Full agree !

M4 is long and elegant, but does not look sporty

M2 is more boxy, more square set up, more aggressive and more sports IMO

I never warmed up to the M4. The rear half in a profile view is just to long IMO. F80 M3 on the other hand looks amazing.
If i needed a bigger car the F80 would be on the top of my list.

Results in a closer sitting (M2) to de rear axle and gives you a better feedback.

I have added M2 vs 1m Coupe comparison. It seems to me there is a small difference in design, if not take front of the new M2. 1M rims looks better for me.

I actually still prefer the looks of the M4 over the M2.



Don't kill me.

I voted M2 because I actually think the M2 in photos (which is the only way I've seen it) looks the best. There are some design elements that I don't love on my M4... although I do think it is a beautiful car. When I see my M2 in the flesh, I reserve the right to change my vote

The 1M isn't even on my attractiveness radar (at the risk of offending some here)... it looks like a pieced together effort and the front is a mess (well, the headlights are bad for sure) and it's main redeeming design feature are the rear fender flares. Without those it would be really bad.

Good to know it's not just me. I thought it looked very overdone.

Like the look of the M3 over M4. Like the M2 look even more then M3/4 after I saw them together in the flesh (and not because I am buying the M2) And still think the 1M looks bad ass as well........the only thing I never liked about the 1M is the front headlights.

Don't worry, when you see the M2 in person, your vote won't change

M4 Sakhir Orange strictly looks wise, but M2 for me because life isn't all about looks

What car do you like 1M, M2 or M4?
Eh, what? I like all of them. Shouldn't it be "which car's exterior do you like the most?"
