Welcome home M2!

I finally got my hands on one of the cleanest 2017 M2s in Lebanon, sourced from and kept in great hands. It has a few upgrades that I absolutely love, giving it that perfect OEM+ look and feel.

The OG M2 with the N55 shares most of its DNA with the F82 M4, but I genuinely believe it's a future classic because of how raw and engaging it feels. N55 > S55 lol. Despite both cars being in the same price range, I always preferred the M2 over the bigger M4. I love how nimble, playful, and connected it feels, just like an old-school BMW.

I'll definitely be sharing more of the M2 soon, but for now, here's to a lifelong achievement. I still can't believe I finally made it happen.

Special thanks to and for the inspection and checkup.


If you've read this far, I love you. There's a review of a similar M2 on my YouTube I posted 8 years ago. Comment "M2 BRAP" on it and I'll give you a kiss.

Fire breathing 911 GT3



I got the chance to drive an absolutely mental 992 GT3 with a loud IPE exhaust and a tune, spitting 1-meter flames for over 10 seconds. CRAZY.

This new GT3 is the first 911 to use double wishbone front suspension, massively reducing the understeer rear-engined 911s were always known for. The front end feels insanely sharp and connected to the road…especially combined with rear-axle steering.

Naturally aspirated. 9,000 rpm. THE DREAM.

Special thanks to for hooking me up with their sick car.

Goodbye A45, grateful for the time we had.

1 year ago today, I bought my first ever sports car with my own money. Money I didn’t really have, but somehow, it worked out. And just like that, I became the proud owner of an AMG… one of the best hot hatches you can buy.

I did everything I wanted with it…and it never missed. Now, I’m ready to move on to a new chapter…and I genuinely can’t wait to share what’s next.

𝗠𝘆 𝟭-𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄:
It’s very quick. The AWD is a delight in wet conditions, always felt confident driving it. Sounds raspy and popcorny too, and I loved the dual-clutch “fart.”
It’s a love-hate relationship with that charismatic but stubborn dual-clutch… takes time to warm up, and when it’s cold, uphill starts can be a nightmare; it just doesn’t want to go. It changes direction so quickly, the brakes are grabby, and it’s genuinely fun on twisty B-roads. The big turbo does mean some lag, with little torque below 2,500 rpm.

It’s on the heavier side, with noticeable suspension travel and a bit of “hoppiness,” but that also brings real daily comfort despite the firm setup, which is why I never cared for the full bucket seats.

Maintenance-wise, I’ve spent almost nothing over 13,000 km in 12 months, just basic fluid changes, all done at Mercedes-Benz Lebanon.

𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗔𝗻 𝗔𝟰𝟱?
It’s the perfect daily. Super fun to throw around, yet easy to live with every day. Practical and spacious enough for friends and family. The facelift still looks great even after 10 years. The CLA45 and GLA45 share the same underpinnings, but the A45 has superior driving dynamics.

When looking for one, watch the mileage. The gearbox can become an issue if it hasn’t been treated properly. Stay on top of oil changes and don’t delay servicing. They are solid cars, but can get expensive if neglected.
Buy a good one, and you’ll love it.

Special thanks to
