BMW M2 features a 3-liter, 6-cylinder engine produces 365 hp and 343 lb-ft of torque, catapulting the high performance vehicle from 0-60 mph in 4.2 seconds.
The new BMW M2 can be ordered as an option with the latest generation of the seven-speed M Double Clutch Transmissions (M DCT with Drivelogic). This system, which effectively combines two gearboxes, each with its own clutch, is specially designed to work with the customary engine dynamics of M cars and the engine’s high torque and output.
A six-speed manual is standard.
The 2016 BMW M2 will be available at authorized U.S. BMW centers starting at $51,700 plus Destination and Handling starting in April 2016.
Interesting: it’s got a round gas filler door… I don’t ever recall seeing that on a BMW.
Hey you’re right i didn’t see that ! It’s especially interesting considering the 2’s one is normally a rectangle.
First delivery here in Belgium, at BMW Gregoir Puurs.
Yours?
No. Or not yet? I saw it by myself, I don’t know yet if I would trade my AW 1M for the M2…
I wouldn’t. The 1M is special, I have one also.
I agree with you. I love the way the 1M looks and drive, and this a car to keep, regarding to te limited production. But I have 4 cars yet, and not enough space for a 5th. :(
