I know this is crazy but the one thing that bothers me about the M2 and the 2 series in general is the crooked drivers seat.

Is this even noticeable ??

Can’t say I’ve noticed...but didn’t they say that about the E46 as well? I drove those for more than 10 years without issue.

Did they say that about the E46 ?

I just read the 2er they tilted the seat a bit to give better crash test results

Maybe it was a thing with the steering wheel? I remember something...

I find porsches to be slightly off, even the 981/991 generation pedals aren't quite lined up and I feel it on a long drive.
