What the hell is a 'stripper M2' ? Check the specs, theyre all basically the same.
You can option transmission & colours & thats about it.
BMW made the M2 then replaced it with the M2C then just released the M2CS. None are stripped out in any way (unfortunately), all are similarly equipped with the M2C & M2CS getting the S55 over the N55 in the M2. They're all too heavy thats for sure & the M3/4 is even worse.
I think the big difference is the buyer demographic, buyers of previous M3s are now buying the M2 as it's the current BMW 'drivers car'.
The new M3 is pretty much equivalent to the old M5 thus it appeals to a different buyer.
As for the Porsche argument well they all shit all over BMW products which is what we own so does it really matter. But keep an eye out for the GT4RS as it will be the Porsche to have for true driving enthusiasts.
