pleased to hear the Cayman is decent. I am not sure about going for the S or a younger non S model - there are a few nicely specced AUC's appearing for £35k now which look good value. M2, am not sure yet until I see UK reviews and my 330d supplying dealer is expecting their first delivery in June so will call me to come have a look.. I think it will hold its value though, most dealers seem to have only 2-3 cars per year and its deff 2018 now if you out you name down.. I also put down a deposit before all the reviews..
If you can stretch to it, I'd go for the S - just gives the car that extra bit of grunt which is always nice
Mine is a PDK box and I can highly recommend that, its a brilliant gearbox. The 2.7 is still a fine car though so you won't be disappointed with that. If you can get one with Sports Chrono and Sports Exhaust then do so - they're quite rare to have both specced, and will certainly help with resale.
I think you're totally right, the M2 is going to hold its value, much more so than the current gen M3/4. It's going to be one rare car that's for sure. As you got ahead of the game in terms of ordering it would be rude to not get one! Just don't come anywhere near me, as that thing is a monster (from what I've read)
