The Supra mostly due to it not being a manual.
Now, I have to decide to wait ANOTHER 2 years??!?! I think at this point I'd buy it regardless of how it looks, but what am I going to do for 2 more years!? This thing is going to be awesome.

Start of production of the G87 M2 is scheduled for December 2022.
Back in 2016, some folks had to wait
many months to get the keys of the highly anticipated original F87 M2. There were waiting lists and markups in some regions. And back then there was also the appealing F80 M3 and F82 M4 around as premium alternative.
It goes without saying that late 2022 we may also expect high anticipation for the second generation M2 after a painstakingly drawn out hype in 2021-2022. Combine this with something different compared to 2015-2016 that may even draw more attention to the G87 M2: the boat-sized G80 M3 and G82 M4 with its 'peculiar' design will be around (maybe already an LCI [life cycle impulse]).
So, realistically speaking, make that 'someday in 2023' at the very earliest for you. And as you know, it's still the dreadful 2020 as we speak. You can still get an M2 Competition or M2 CS and enjoy those cars in the very near future, knowing
exactly what to expect from those 'final design stage' M2 cars.
