MUNICH vs STUT TGART
BMW M2 COUPE
“It’s still puristic, a driver’s car, but with a broader spread of characteristics and a greater divide between comfort and sport than we’ve seen up to now.” We were already getting pretty excited about the new M2 Coupé, but that little teaser from a BMW insider who has already driven the car has really got us chomping at the bit.
Upgrades for the second-gen M2 will bring it closer to its M3 and M4 siblings, with which it will share the twin-turbocharged S58 3.0-litre straight six that produces around 430bhp in top-rung Competition guise. They meant ‘driver’s car’, too: a six-speed manual gearbox will be an option and drive will be sent exclusively rearwards.
