F87 M2 Competition as a first RWD car
Thinking about getting an F87 M2 Competition (2020–2021) soon. I’m 23 and currently drive a 2022 GR Yaris, which was my first performance car and I absolutely love it. The thing is, the M2 Comp would also be my first RWD car and I’d be lying if I said I’m not a bit intimidated by it lol.
The GR feels super planted and confidence inspiring with the AWD, so jumping into something with a lot more power going only to the rear wheels feels like a pretty big step. I’m not planning to drift it everywhere or drive like an idiot, but I do enjoy spirited driving on back roads and weekend drives.
For people who’ve gone from AWD/FWD performance cars to an F87 M2 Comp, how hard was the adjustment? Is it manageable if you respect it, or is it dangerous as people say?
