Arrow M2 test mule spotted today...

A friend of mine spotted this M2 test mule just down the street from the Welt, today. Sorry about the picture quality(iPhone). I thought it was worth posting, though.

My buddy said the car(M2) was very wide in the rear - plus it had quite a loud exhaust note!! He said it sounded great!

It is definitely wide. Damn winter tires with seemingly skinny, inset wheels really take away from the effect though. Remedied soon I hope...they need to get caught in some hot weather testing climes. Thanks for the pics Dackel!

Low and wide - very wide. Perhaps some of the shots we've had recently have been so close you lose some of that perspective. Looks great here.

Yea, I think that's it. Especially the first picture. That just looks so mean coming down the road.

I'm already picturing it with a drop and some nice wide wheels

If it's too wide I don't want one, may as well get an M4, I want something close to the size of an M235 not a bus, an extra 2 inches is all I'll allow

Now here is where I start getting really excited.
As lo-res as they are, these pictures actually say more to me than the others we've seen. "Low, wide and aggressive" is not something that has been as apparent until now.

Nice!!!
