Why she chose a BMW M2 DCT over a BMW M4 + Lexus GX470 overland build review

Niel upgraded from a Mini Cooper S to a BMW M2, purchasing it before the M2 CS had been unveiled. The choice between an M3, M4, or the M2 was a tough one, but the M2's appeal proved irresistible. Her license plate amusingly makes other drivers want to race her all the time. Niel's M2 is stock, offering an authentic ownership experience straight from the dealer. She shares her car adventures on Instagram @turrbokitty. If I were to own an M2, I'd consider a Stage 1 tune, smaller wheels, a valved catback exhaust, and maybe a roof wrap, though the toughest choice remains between a DCT or manual transmission. Ansrwd, a series of car reviews by real owners, offers insights not from automotive journalists like Chris Harris or Doug Demuro, but from actual enthusiasts. Cars featured in this series include models like the Gaglardi Vex, Porsche 911 GT3, McLaren 600LT, Ferrari F12/F430 and 458 Italia, Acura NSX, Corvette, FRS, BMWs, Drift Cars, and more.
