BMW M2 is here
 
World Premiere today

http://cdn.bmwblog.com/wp-content/up...32-750x500.jpg

The M2 has gone back to basics, but has added a modern twist. It uses a brand-new six-cylinder in-line engine, with M TwinPower Turbo technology and three-liter displacement, develops 272 kW/370 hp with peak torque of 465 Nm / 343 lb-ft. (Combined fuel consumption, with six-speed manual gearbox: 8.5 l/100 km [33.2 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions combined: 199 g/km; with optional M Double Clutch transmission [M DCT]: 7.9 l/100 km [35.8 mpg imp]; CO2 emissions combined: 185 g/km).

Peak torque of 465 Nm (343 lb-ft) can be increased to as much as 500 Nm (369 lb-ft) in short bursts under overboost.

All of that tech and power allows the M2, with the optional M Double Clutch Transmission (M DCT) in place and Launch Control activated, to sprint from rest to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.3 seconds (4.5 s with the six-speed manual gearbox). The top speed of the new BMW M2 is electronically limited to 250 km/h (155 mph). If the M Driver’s Package – which includes a BMW Driving Experience voucher for a track training course – is specified, this cut-off point doesn’t arrive until 270 km/h (168 mph).

KISS rule doesnt apply to carmakers anymore...

dvst8 10-13-2015 02:57 PM

Wouldn't be surprised if all the front ends are interchangeable between series. :)

320icar 10-13-2015 03:05 PM

They all look the same. Lost interest in BMW years ago

68style 10-13-2015 03:15 PM

Hahaha 3200lbs for a car that size!!!

And the nanny tranny is a whopping 300lbs heavier at 3515lbs! Crazy!

No wonder it needs nearly 400hp to perform.

Hondaracer 10-13-2015 03:27 PM

hate how all car companies, especially "higher end" brands have basically completely sold out..

Making 6 series sedans and S class coupes when they were essentially designated sports coupes or luxury sedans for the longest time.. irks me a little

Teriyaki 10-13-2015 03:51 PM

Can't even tell the M series from regular cars anymore. Same with AMG models and S-line. Every car just looks the same.

HonestTea 10-13-2015 04:03 PM

Looks much better than the 1M IMO

westopher 10-13-2015 04:06 PM

I can't believe people aren't excited about this. Most awesome car released since the GT4.
This is literally the only new car I would consider buying.

slicrick 10-13-2015 04:20 PM

Sounds like an awesome car, but I think the 1 series looked much better than the 2 series.

E-SPEC 10-13-2015 04:31 PM

Looks just like the rest of them.

MikeyStyle 10-13-2015 05:53 PM

The first-ever BMW M2. Official launchfilm.
 

E-40six 10-13-2015 06:15 PM

did everyone absolutely miss the MANUAL gear box that is standard on this thing or what?

Alpine 10-13-2015 06:52 PM

Wow, curb weight of 3450lbs or 3500lbs... And people said the mustangs/camaros/challengers were pigs lol.

Galactic_Phantom 10-13-2015 07:09 PM

Been waiting to see how this potentially impacts the value of the 1M which I feel is severely overpriced.

Z3guy 10-13-2015 08:38 PM

I lost interest in m cars after the f10 m5. The m4 is nice, but I would rather have an used 991s. Imo, the m2 looks absolutely fantastic. The m2 weight and the proportions makes the m4 look like a huge boat. I would like a loaded manual blue one!

european 10-13-2015 08:50 PM

like it!

StylinRed 10-13-2015 09:22 PM

looks pretty cool, but it also looks like the M1, M3, M4, M5, M7, M8, M9, M10, M11, M12, M13, M14...

ae101 10-13-2015 09:33 PM

what about the M16
