They claim 19s ride too rough so they put on 18" wheels...personally I love the way 19" wheels ride...good video. Always knew Manhattan Car Club guys had good taste!

For all those M Coupe owners/enthusiasts...keep an eye out on The Smoking Tire YouTube channel...during the M2 test of yesterday...you see a pretty sweet looking M Coupe in the parking lot of the cars that Matt is driving for the week...so that video has to be coming up soon. Just checked...not today though...today is a freaking Prius or Insight or whatever...

Still kicking myself for selling my 06 M coupe.

No choice as I couldn't fit a baby seat in it but only got $26,500 for it back in 2010 and now it is worth about the same!

+1.

Sold my Boxster because of this, got a used Z4 3.0, never looked back. I'd get a Z4M Coupe or Roadster anytime over a Boxster, more character and livelier for sure.

Yes you can. There are anchors in the passenger seat designed specifically for baby seats and one in the trunk. You just need to disable the passenger airbag using the switch next to the door.
