New 2 series Coupe

[MR_Y]

Full reveal: 2022 BMW 2 Series

The BMW has stuck with convention with the new 2 Series Coupe – it’s a handsome rear-wheel-drive compact sportscar, of which the initial flagship is powered by a 275 kW 3.0-litre inline-6 turbopetrol motor.

Finally, faith has been restored and sanity prevails.
Proper RWD or rear-biased AWD small coupes.
No FWD, front-biased AWD Mini platform sharing crap.
That M240i seems like an awesome pick - but I expect pricing to be north of R1m easily.
The 230i, while being a 4 pot, can be seen as a smaller 330is and that is not a bad thing, if pricing can be kept reasonable. Granted, it is still a turbo 4 cylinder.

I guess the good news, especially for us penny pinchers, is that when this new 2 series Coupe is released, the current 2 series Coupe values should drop a bit. A slightly used M240i may be a brilliant used buy. I wonder if dealers will start discounting their old stock soon.

much better looking than the 4door version
but then again there lots of things better looking than that

Small bmw coupes never disappoint. Definitely looks much much better than the 4 door version.
Not so sure about those taillights, might possibly look better in the flesh.

Not too bad,
I feel it has some styling queues from the Fiat 124 Spyder.

Saying that, its a worthy update in design. that M240i example looks like it has a very wide rear end, very M2-esque.

With the new-car-prices being higher and higher, dont expect to see a drop in used car prices. It's currently evident with the lack of good clean used stock.

That goodness I cannot afford this car. I can't stand the thought of saying no to a "small" sized BMW coupe.

Not a fan of those rear lights...

Glad they decided not to go with the 3/4 series front though!

The current second Hand prices for m240i are holding well. R650k plus for most 2 years or newer. If they 2021 close to R800k.
So if the new one is over R1m I think they’ll stay there and the cheaper ones might even creep up in price.

They’ll be considered bargains at R300k or R400k less than new models. Same engine and I bet on the dyno they’ll make same power.

anyways new one looks great except that rear.
