Hey Audi RS3-rider, check your rear view mirror for a moment. There is a M2 quickly ascend.

Hoedtik for the Britmedia that their embargo is not under the cap. The first images of the BMW M2 Coupe have just come out via Kinja, together with a lot of specifications. And yes, as expected, the M-product to the finest BMW of the year. And then some.

370 hp

Under the bulging hood of the BMW M2 Coupe is the six-cylinder turboblok from the M235i, which is 370 hp and 465 newton-meters of torque it delivers in the direction of the rear wheels. Thus bang you in 4.5 seconds to the hundred, unless you have your own stirring of the manual gearbox with six gears. With the M DCT gearbox with a dual clutch and a nasty short switching times, do you do the 4,3 count.

Hardware of the M3/M4

Actually, this is the M3/M4 in a more compact jacket. Both the front axle, rear axle, gearbox, brakes and pistons are of its bigger brothers, borrowed, packaged in a car that is not more than 1.495 kg. A civilised but not overwhelming 35 kg less than the M235i.

UPDATE: it’s official, all the info+photos HERE!
