The BMW M2 is not a automobile that most individuals whose eyes work would name enticing, however with a torquey, turbocharged inline-six and quick wheelbase, its agile dealing with makes it so pleasant to drive, you will cease caring about the way it seems to be. Actually, it is arguably a greater driver’s automobile than the larger M4. Because it additionally comes with a handbook, the one actual draw back is that you could’t get it as a convertible. Nicely, that and the $69,375 base worth. However what if you’d like an M2 that is extra unique? Maybe some kind of particular version that is additionally an ode to BMW’s previous? Meet the 2026 BMW M2 Turbo Design Version.
Not like the lap time-focused M2 CS, the M2 Turbo Design Version is extra about fashion. Particularly, it is a tribute to the unique BMW 2002 Turbo that the world first noticed on the 1973 Frankfurt Auto Present. You continue to get all of the common M2 efficiency goodies, but it surely solely is available in Alpine White paint with a black hood graphic that has “turbo” spelled out in mirrored white script. To finish the look, you additionally get hand-painted Motorsport stripes alongside both facet of the hood, a stripe down the carbon-fiber roof, and stripes on the trunklid, which can be adorned with a carbon-fiber spoiler.Â
Is the common M2 already turbocharged from the manufacturing facility? After all it’s. However solely the M2 Turbo Design Version broadcasts that info on to anybody who sees you approaching of their rear-view mirror. Except they comply with BMW information intently, they’re going to most likely simply assume you went a little bit loopy with the mods as a substitute of recognizing that they simply obtained handed by an extremely uncommon, special-edition M2, however a minimum of they’re going to know you will have a turbo. Plus, it is a fantastic reference to the unique 2002 Turbo, which additionally had mirrored graphics.
An $84,075 particular version
Inside, you get sill plates that say “M2 turbo,” in addition to a plate on the cupholder cowl that claims “turbo.” Past that, there is not a lot else within the cabin to distinguish the M2 Turbo Design Version from the common M2, though it’s value noting that this model is manual-only. There aren’t many choices obtainable, both, however you possibly can add a set of Matte Gold Bronze wheels for $6,266, some M Carbon bucket seats for $4,500 or the M Driver’s Bundle for $2,500.Â
Whether or not you need the carbon buckets or not, I say a minimum of spring for the motive force’s bundle and the bronze wheels. You are already ordering a limited-edition automobile, so that you would possibly as effectively get the nice wheels. Plus, the motive force’s bundle raises the highest velocity to 177 mph, which will certainly come in useful on the monitor. Do you get any extra energy than the common M2? Nope, however once more, it is a restricted version, not a monitor particular.
How restricted is it? BMW will not say. However the press launch did name it “[a] particular, very restricted version of the 2026 BMW M2” and later added that it “might be produced in extraordinarily restricted numbers beginning in January of 2026.” What number of it would really construct, although, remains to be a thriller. Because it’s an ode to the unique 2002 turbo, a manufacturing run of two,002 would make sense, however once more, BMW is not speaking precise numbers but.
If a manual-only M2 with hand-painted stripes inbuilt “extraordinarily restricted numbers” seems like your type of automobile, you will want a minimum of $84,075 (together with vacation spot) to place one in your driveway. That is a heck of some huge cash for a automobile that is no faster than the common M2, however I can also’t think about anybody who buys one in all these will care. And you will not have to attend too terribly lengthy to truly drive yours, both, since deliveries are anticipated to start in early Q2 subsequent 12 months.
