In a social media post, BMW M has shown off a profile shot of an M2 prototype in full camo, with the gold multi-spoke wheels shrouding enormous drilled brakes there for all to see. It also features the largest rear wing we’ve yet seen on a production M2, with all previous versions ‘making do’ with a token lip spoiler.
The caption on the post reads “hints of great power. Stay tuned.” Given the CS went out with a 450PS (331kW) bang, suggests there will be a little more under the hood for its second outing, and certainly more than the new M240i xDrive. We’ll wait to hear whether it’ll share the current M3’s 500PS-plus twin-turbo straight-six. Even through the camo the broad hips of this prototype are easy to pick out with how they catch the light.
The M treatment has the potential to transform the looks of the quite gawky new 2 Series Coupe – it could benefit from a big set of arches and four warbling pipes out back. All in, not a lot has been given away and yet we can’t help but get excited for the next M2.
