Following the revealing of the brand new M2, BMW confronted one of many predominant criticisms— the restricted array of colours. Initially, solely 5 hues had been accessible, none of which got here from the Particular person catalog. The difficulty was partially addressed final 12 months when the premium model launched two matte paints – Frozen Pure Gray and Frozen Portimao Blue.

In one of many first movies showcasing the M2 G87 with an Particular person colour, the sports activities coupe combines Frozen Pure Gray with black wheels, purple brake calipers, and a carbon fiber roof. Geared up with the eight-speed computerized transmission, the rear-wheel-drive machine options non-compulsory entrance carbon fiber bucket seats together with black leather-based upholstery. Being a automobile constructed for the UK market, it is a right-hand-drive mannequin.

Though the M2 remains to be comparatively recent available on the market, having obtained its market launch in April 2023, BMW is already getting ready to replace the automobile. Per an announcement made final month by M boss Frank van Meel, a “mannequin revision” is scheduled to come back out later in 2024. It’s believed that one of many tweaks will probably be further colour choices, presumably Twilight Purple and/or Grigio Telesto.

Elsewhere, BMW is purportedly making some modifications to the engine. The dual-turbo inline-six is alleged to obtain a wholesome bump in output of 20 horsepower. If sources near Munich are correct, it means the three.0-liter mill is getting 473 hp. This modification will probably be utilized to the usual M2 because the Bavarians aren’t concerned about popping out with a Competitors mannequin.

That’s to not say a warmer M2 has been dominated out. Come 2025, a limited-run CS particular version is alleged to exceed the 500-hp mark and boast an prolonged array of carbon fiber physique elements, plus a CSL-esque ducktail spoiler. It’s rumored to come back solely with the eight-speed Steptronic gearbox.
