They were called "blades" way back in November at SEMA.

And WTF are "Black air breathers"? They're not the Black kidney grilles.
Must be the fake-vent M gills in the front fenders. The bigger M cars have functional vents there.

What happened to the coil-over suspension? That's the only piece I have some interest in because none of the rest will improve the performance of the car. Even the exhaust has no power increase unfortunately. Nevertheless cool video.

BLACK OPS · 02-10-2016, 06:54 PM

Very cool!

AKRAPOVICOWNS · 02-10-2016, 07:42 PM

They should fire whoever chose this music, or any music at all on the video. Other than that i like pretty much every piece of the mpp. Shame we didnt get carbon roof and wing mirrors, would have greatly improved the appearance of the car.

Cheers

BMW definitely knows their cars. But their taste in music... is suspect.

tc328 · 02-10-2016, 07:49 PM

I didnt like the front bumper but with m perf decals (maybe black color wrap)...looks Sick!!!

SW19 · 02-10-2016, 07:54 PM

The company that BMW uses to produce there videos has really done a great job on the M2 videos.That was fun to watch.I am very excited to finally get to see the car on Friday at the Toronto Auto Show.

An earlier post had the technical details and Euro pricing in German.

A few months ago I read that BMW would post recommended compression/rebound and ride height settings for various tracks around the world. If I get the kit, I'll set it for Laguna Seca and just leave it there for track days there and anywhere else. (And for DD.)

Robin_NL · 02-11-2016, 05:12 AM

I only need the brakepads for my trackdays. The rest no thank you!

It doesn't look wide/the stance is different less/not sexy, the tyres look less wide than the blue 'normal' one in the videos ? Is it me or is it that video?

Anybody?

Cheers
Robin

kevinlevrone · 02-11-2016, 06:05 AM

Where is the Power Kit for at least 30 hp more ?

SMOOTH26 · 02-11-2016, 06:36 AM

new led heads and tails will really set off the look

Because they're not halogens?

N & M · 02-11-2016, 11:25 AM

Is it me or is this the most exciting M product since the 1M? I really hope the drive matches the lines and hype. Any idea when the factory will offer an official performance (not just sound oriented) exhaust?

looks wise, I think I prefer the double halo rings more of xenons than LEDs. regarding brightness, tbh, I really don't notice a big difference
