Welcome back to RBR guys! I’m in Phoenix Arizona, for the first drive of the flagship #BMWM car - This is the new #BMW G87 M2.

#TheM2 - the original was the first of its name, and in short time became M’s biggest selling model with them delivering over 60,000 units. And why not, we all love the original M2, in all of its variants. From the characterful N55 engine original, to the dynamic and brutish S55 that made the Competition and CS instant classics!

But that’s really the problem isn’t it. An instant classic is a hard act to follow, and that’s what the G87 is tasked with.

The formula is thankfully pure: a 6 cylinder 3.0 S58 engine, giving up to 550NM, and 460 BHP, 10 more than the last CS - with your choice of manual or auto to a pure RWD car. It also has all the chassis technology and rigidity measures from M3 and M4 like, including M Adam price suspension and unique struts.

It has the same front and rear axles as the M4, thus Track widths are identical which means it’s wide as hell, 3.3 cm wider than the old one, and actually lower!

I love the design. I want to share the design sketches they did with you, because I love them, and they really impart where they’re going with on this. Inside deserves a deep dive too, with the new Curved Display and numerous BMW M touches!

We will also go over all the M2 M performance parts of this generation, as there are a tonne of them!

But with so much similar to M4, and weight almost the same too - in my humble opinion it has an uphill battle, can it be good enough to convince us to pay that much more, vs buying the brilliant old one? Let’s find out today!

Up next on RBR is the new BMW XM first drive in the USA, and then a surprise video at Top Gear! Subscribe to support us and see them first. :)
