BMW M2 coupe revealed and confirmed. Super new M3 is also in the pipeline! http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/images/..._449869_25.jpg BMW M2 coupe revealed and confirmed! Auto Express confirms a few new special BMW's are in the pipeline Auto Express spoke exclusively to the M Division’s new managing director, Dr Friedrich Nitschke, and he revealed the car was key to his plans. Plus, it’s only the start. A revolutionary new M3 is also in the pipeline, and there are discussions over a Lamborghini Aventador-rivalling supercar. The ambitious plans will help BMW take the fight to the quattro GmbH performance arm which makes S and RS-badged Audis, plus the R8. The M2 will be based on the firm’s F21 platform – also set to underpin the 2 Series, due early in 2014 – and has a front-mounted engine driving the rear wheels. One BMW insider has told us the newcomer, a direct descendant of the 1 Series Coupe, will be instantly recognizable from the entry-level car with its bold look. Our source also explained that BMW will not copy Audi’s “sausage factory” approach to design. This means the racy new 2 Series will get unique front and rear end styling, as our exclusive images reveal. |
That is a pretty sweet looking Bimmer! thanks DJ |
looks like this to me... :whistle: http://www.performancewheel.com/cw2/...%20Charger.jpg i don't really like it.... |
i like, any news on the upcoming "revolutionary" M3? |
Hmm. So they just made the 1 series M, which receives acclaim because it is light and small- a throw back to the e30 m3. Now they are making an m2, logically bigger and more expensive. This means the m3 will get bigger and more expensive. Geez - not looking forward to an $80k+ m3 without options. |
It's going to be interesting to see how BMW develops its future model line-up with chassis architecture and parts sharing. I'm excited to see these models make it to production. I hope to be able to get the M2 Coupe as my next car. Even more exciting from the article: ...there are discussions over a Lamborghini Aventador-rivalling supercar. The ambitious plans will help BMW take the fight to the quattro GmbH performance arm which makes S and RS-badged Audis, plus the R8. |

thats not the most attractive car is it now |
Looks okay-ish from the rear three quarter. Looks absolutely ******** hideous from the front. However, I suspect this is yet another AutoExpress flight of fancy - they print these mocked up images time after time to try and sell the mag and they never get it right. |
That is one very interesting design! Looking forward to see how the production car looks like |
