BMW M2 in production form spotted testing at the Ring.

The long anticipated BMW M2 Coupe has been spotted again by our trusty TS spies, this time testing on the always challenging Nürburgring. The new addition to the M-family is looking very sporty and aggressive!

Unlike earlier prototypes we've seen, this car wears the production bumper at the front, with the typical M air intakes, plus the real front wheel houses – which were fake at all M2's we've seen so far. The M-style twin exhaust pipes are visible on this prototype, too. The rotors are cross drilled and the brake callipers look very much the same as on the new M3 and M4, therefore further underlining this is, in fact, the M2.

The engine will be codenamed N55B30T0 and will be making around 380 hp from a 3-litre in-line 6-cylinder architecture. With the car’s compact size, performance should be outstanding. The new BMW M2 will launch late in 2015 as a 2016 model.

 

Oh yes, this is what I am waiting for.

 

Like!

 

Curious too see performance numbers once available.
