Thanks for such a cool video Cody! Quick update on the car. Race Engine, Spec Clutch and Ceramic Brakes are installed. We're doing our multi map (pump & e85) tune next week. It's going to be crazy!
Absolutely love how this one turned out John! Thank you for choosing Brixton!
Is it an s58 swap?
@@ReeceT20 Fully Built S55 with much larger turbos.
@@PikachuPcar That's really cool, just with you mentioning cracking the ECU I just assumed it'd be the newer s58 or something but I'm not exactly an s55 expert either 🤷🏼♂️
@@ReeceT20 bought the car new in January 2021 . Mfg date of the DME's (ECU) was after the cutoff for the unlocked ones
This is the dopest M2 build I’ve seen! So much attention to detail and you don’t see many Darwin kits on these either.
facts
Another sick ride in the books. Love the front end on this one, massive amounts of effort went into this build.
Great episode! I love all the little details in this BMW. Such a clean, well done, molded widebody! Awesome video.
I completely agree with you on the airlift comments. I used to have a static wrx and i was super low. but hated driving it. Now i have a 2017 340i on airlift 3p. That was the best decision ever. drives great. looks great. and i am never uncomfortable driving it
Super sick build. Love the color, the interior is off the hook, and the stance is perfect. The owner is so passionate!
Incredible. This is the widebody I always wanted to do to my F22.
This looks Hard AF what a incredible build
That is sick!!!!!
Utter Perfection 😍
Amazing build Fosho ✨✨✨✨✨⚡️✨✨✨✨✨
That’s amazing you put a lot of work into that can’t wait for you to get the motor in
Motor is in. Now in the tuning stage! 🙂
Attention to detail oooof 😍
Sweet Maria! Too good.
Talk about attention to detail 👌🏾👌🏾.
INSANE
That car is super clean
Car is insane
exquisite!
Isn't this the BMW Vision GT by Polyphony's Gran Turismo style?
AmZing video!! Someone s gotta teach John how to film in landscape mode lol . Enjoyed watching this inside my car while I did a water pump bleed cycle on my m235i lol. Cheers!!
OK. Teach me! LOL 😆
Badass 🤌🏽
Brutalll
Is that spoiler wing still being produced and sold by Darwinpro? Does it fit on the 2018-2020 M240i? I am thinking about saving up money and selling my current Genesis Coupe 3.8 for an M240i in the future. The wing may be part of my decision.
I also have airlift suspension on my M2 comp.
Most people talking shit bout it have never even tried air suspension. It performs really great on track too.
Totally Bro. I've had an Airrex system on my GTR for 3 years now and it's perfect too. I did my camber very close to oem at drive height so it's awesome. Especially with the additional contact patch of the 275 F / 325 R
John I quit my job right now and I come work for you if you show me a paycheck lol. That’s quite the eclectic car collection you have. I wish you the best with your builds and I look forward to seeing more
Most underrated CZcamsr ever.
gawd damnnnn
it looks nice I would love to see yall do this to my m235
😍😍
is the base car a m2c or cs?
Love the spoiler. Can't find one like that. Did you get it custom made?
Thx. It's a part of the Darwinpro kit
not a massive bmw fan but wow thats such a beautiful build holy
Thx!
he should do the supercharger they sell for these cars , so its twin turbo , supercharged , such a crazy look needs the added supercharger sound and torque .
You need to do a video on the V12 AWD SUPRA
John has a ton of money wow
how much is a build like that cost? I have a m2
people always say bags ruin performance as if some of the top hillclimb and racecars in the world are not on full air suspension. if you're not running something in the kw v3, ohlin, jrz realm of coilovers, your setup wont out perform bags.
True that. I have airlift on my m2 comp, and it performs really good.
Last time i was driving track, one dude in a lotus with toyo R888 was blown away because i was as fast as him, with street continentals and air suspension.
@@Aapee1 thats actually what i hope to do next if i dont do an amg gt. M2 comp, on air, with that orange supercharger to twincharge it. Would be a monster of a build.
He just made a real life BMW Vision GT
I'm all about the looks of the car. I drive a bmw 128i convertible and I would love to have someone offer to customize my car for me, but obviously I can't afford it.
how much weight was added?
Hmmmm. Kit is carbon. Front seats replaced with super light Recaro Podium CF Buckets, Rear Seats deleted, wheels hardware is all Titanium as well as my lug bolts, Aftermarket Exhaust System probably reduced 50lbs+.So add weight? 🤔
@@PikachuPcar nice!
Let me clear some things up. Just because you have air-ride suspension doesn't mean your car won't stiff and harsh to drive. The lower the tire's tire wall profile. The sensitive the ride quality will be. Coilovers are how much you pay is much you get. Some coilover companies allow customization of your coilover to where the ride quality is great without sacrificing stance look. I will say this Air-ride is more versatile while it's not the best overall performance, it can tune for comfort. While coilovers may be limited in versatility, money is the limit as to far you wanna go with performance while trying to maintain ride quality. Both can really expensive.
To wrapped this in my conclusion.
If not really that into performance but need versatility and comfort with a little performance: Air-ride ( Don't lower tire profit so much)
If you don't really need versatility and you need a track focus or more driver's car focus: coilovers (Don't be cheap b!tch) (buy good quality tires).
Hold on…let me grab a chair 🪑, I can sit and stare at it all day long, what a piece of ART
Thank You 💙
i always find it funny when people be like 6 coats of clear is on the car over the years of painting i realize that don't mean anything it comes down to the product you use, you can use a clear coat that give you the same build in two coats that you would get in 6 coats from a other product lol
No clips of the current engine bay ?
It wasn't in at SEMA. It's in now. On the dyno so hopefully soon
Only 40 views!? cool car tho
Looks like water blue metallic oem bmw paint
That’s is pretty much the BMW VGT from GT7
OMG THE SHORT GUY IN THE PURPLE HOODIE IS KINDA CUTE WHATS HIS @?
Looks sick, but at $16k for the body kit, I will absolutely PASS!! I think people become completely misinformed with these kinds of builds and modifications. They are very expensive...really only made for 1%'ers, and this M2 build as a whole is an easy $100k+, not including buying the M2 in the first place. Just insane.
I never tell anyone it's cheap but it's hard to balance an accurate explanation without coming off as bragging / flexing or discouraging them to accomplish a lifegoal. It's a passion thing for me. I just can't wait to take this thing out on the streets and racetrack.
If you can do it then why not.. I’d def do it if I had the dough
This is how wide body is done! No cheap ass rivets all over the place and poor fitment.
why didn't G87 take notes from this 😭😭
Gran Turismo 6
BMW Vision GT
Look it up
Idk man haha
Coolest custom body BMW ever. Unfortunate paint color choice :( but that's just my opinion
I applaud the workmanship. But the car is just too busy. Maybe I'm getting old.
Nah you're not getting too old. I respect your opinion. I know what you mean though. That's why I went with a molded route instead of rivets. Cost me probably 3x as much. Also, I chose a classic Ferrari paint color called Avio Metallic instead of some loud ass neon color. Peep the wheels too. No chrome. Just a brushed clear and satin finish with Titanium Hardware. So you see I tried to balance out the busy-ness
@@PikachuPcar The color is right up my alley. In fact, this color and body remind me a little of the 2002 homage car from 2016.
Put s65 tuned to 500 fuck turbo engines
The colour doesn’t do it justice, should’ve went with a more M colour
It is on air ?
Fuck
Wow…but “drift around” with that steering wheel? Yea ok mate
surfacing is horrible. those bevels on the bumper not to mention those ridicoulos panel gaps
You can tell all of that just from this video?
Rims ruin it for me
I like em just sucks they cover the huge brakes
@@M2C_mike I've changed the brakes to full carbon ceramics and powder coated the calipers to the same metallic rose gold color as the roll cage. It pops through that organic mesh design.
@@PikachuPcar 763M for m2, nothing else
love your build, its my dream goal
Sorry, and it’s Ugly! My’73 BMW 3.0cs leaves this mutant in the dust.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion
@@M2C_mike True of course. But will that beast appreciate?😎
@JohnTyson I put 200K into this build so I assure you my goal was not about appreciation. Just about creating something that is beautiful to me on the outside and inside. Second, I already have about a million in appreciation for my other cars so I'm good with that. In any case, my cars are for driving and enjoyment so are you serious about taking your 73 CS out to race it against my M2?
@@PikachuPcar As an industrial designer I still think it’s ugly; the car that is, not your build! I think BMW is losing its way, especially its EVs. I’ve had my CS since new, and its had a bare metal restoration..Race you? I don’t even take it out in the rain:) We share the passion for driving and enjoyment. I also have a JagXK8 cabrio, and a Tesla Model 3. Enjoy your beauty. Cheers 🍻
@@johntyson1958 thanks for the reply. Enjoy your rides as well. Love the Jag and the T3 handles incredibly well. I was cruising around all weekend in my 981 Boxster Spyder. The goal for me on the M2 is to race it in the Shift Sector 1/2 mile. The engine that's going in there has already trapped over 183 mph.
the art of F***** a beautifull car and also messing up the dinamics
Dam you ruined that poor m2 why not just buy a fucking Toyota ffs 🤦🏽♂️crapy looking supras
Immediately no. Just no
That’s a body of work.🤌✅
