The Last Pure Combustion M Car
The G87 M2 is expected to be one of the last non-hybrid, purely internal combustion BMW M cars, making it a special model in the M lineup.
Powered by the S58 Twin-Turbo Inline-Six
It features the 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged S58 inline-six engine, borrowed from the M3/M4, producing 453 horsepower and 550 Nm (406 lb-ft) of torque.
Available with a Manual Transmission
True to BMW M tradition, the G87 M2 offers a 6-speed manual transmission alongside the optional 8-speed M Steptronic automatic, catering to driving purists.
Impressive Performance Numbers
The M2 can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (0–62 mph) in just 4.1 seconds (automatic) and 4.3 seconds (manual), combining compact dimensions with M power.
Wider and More Muscular Stance
Compared to the previous F87 M2, the G87 has a wider track, flared fenders, and a more aggressive stance, enhancing both aesthetics and handling capabilities.
M-Specific Chassis Tuning
The G87 benefits from M3/M4-inspired suspension and braking systems, with adaptive M suspension, an Active M Differential, and upgraded chassis rigidity.
Signature Quad Exhaust Tips
As with all modern M models, the G87 M2 features the signature quad exhaust tips, offering an aggressive look and a distinctive exhaust note.
Track-Ready Technology
The car includes M Drive Professional with features like drift analyzer, lap timer, and customizable M modes to fine-tune the driving experience on the track.
High-Tech Interior
The G87 M2 comes standard with BMW’s Curved Display, combining a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and 14.9-inch central touchscreen, running BMW iDrive 8 software.
Unique M2-Specific Styling
Unlike previous M2s, the G87 features unique exterior styling, including angular front air intakes, a bold kidney grille, and exclusive M colors, differentiating it from the standard 2 Series Coupé.
The BMW M2 (G87) is the last pure, combustion-only M car, packing a 460 HP twin-turbo S58 inline-6, RWD, and old-school hydraulic steering feel. It’s a modern E46 M3 for those who hate SUVs and EVs.

3. Where to Buy in the EU?

Mobile.de, Autoscout24 (filter for "Full BMW History").
LeaseLoco (Ex-lease deals, but high km).

4. Market Trends
📈 Appreciation Potential
Manual models will hold value (last of their kind).
2023 Launch Editions already selling over MSRP.
📉 Depreciation Risks
Automatic (ZF8) versions dropping faster (~10% yearly).
5. Must-Do Checks
🔧 Mechanical:
Cold-Start Engine: Listen for timing chain rattle (rare but costly).
Diff Whine: Should be silent—humming = €4k repair.
Tire Wear: 275-section rears wear fast (€1,200/set).
🎨 Cosmetic:
Front Bumper Scrapes: Low splitter attracts curbs.
Wheel Finish: 20" alloys chip easily.
Fun Fact: The G87 M2 shares its S58 engine with the M4 CSL—just detuned.
Ownership Costs
Annual Maintenance: €1,500 (oil, filters, brakes).
Insurance: €1,800+/year (high theft risk).
Fuel Economy: 10–12L/100km (if you behave).
Alternatives
Porsche 718 Cayman GTS (€85k–€100k): Mid-engine, less power.
Toyota GR Supra (€60k–€75k): Same engine, worse steering.
Used M4 Competition (€70k–€90k): More practical, less fun.
Verdict
✔ Buy if: You want the last true M car and love raw, unfiltered driving.
✖ Avoid if: You need back seats (these are +2 only).
