The BMW M2 Could Get A Massive Power Hike Thanks To An M4 Engine Transplant
Information has leaked about an M2 Club Sport which will use the M4's ferocious powertrain
Rumours have circulated about a hardcore version of the already capable M2, which could bear the M2 CSL name. It’d be a baby version of the M4 GTS, and now German publication Bimmer Today has got an inside scoop of the track-focused baby M car. And it seems set to get one hell of a power boost.
Known as the M2 CS (Club Sport), the car will use a detuned version of the M4’s S55 engine. This means that power outputs will be around 400bhp - 25bhp down on the likes of the M3 and M4 but 35bhp up on the standard M2 road car. With release estimated to be some time in 2018, the CS will also exploit the M4 GTS’s suspension setup to make for a seriously competitive rival to the likes of the Audi TT RS.

Waiting for a M2 with a M5 engine tho.
If I’m not mistaken, it already has the exact engine out of the M4, its just in a lower state of tune.
