As is tradition with the reveal of a new M car from BMW, the brand also announces the go-faster goodies for it. Here’s what you can expect from the BMW M2 Performance Parts.
The brand-new BMW M2 was recently revealed (and made its first public debut right here in SA) armed with 338 kW and 550 Nm. For the purists, a manual gearbox is an option.
It’s the looks that had many riled up, the leaked photos of a vehicle in an unflattering shade of blue did it no justice, but thankfully the official images in a striking red were better.

Now what you see here is the BMW M2 Performance Parts catalogue, which takes the standard M2 and turns it into something visually extreme. There’s a big carbon fibre wing mounted on the boot lid, as well as a roof-mounted spoiler.
On the rear bumper are some additional aero features, plus the same central-mounted quad exhaust system that has been available for the BMW M3/M4, while the front bumper gains some additional diffusers, in carbon fibre obviously.
There are bigger wheels available, with a stanced setup thanks to 20-inch units on the front axle and 21-inch wheels at the rear. The cabin gets a light makeover with carbon fibre inserts into the steering wheel, central console and dashboard.
When is the 2023 BMW M2 Coming to SA?
The 2023 BMW M2 has been confirmed for South Africa and will be arriving in the second quarter of 2023. The BMW M2 Performance Parts catalogue will be available through your local dealer.
