Read Time:1 Minute, 50 Second

Ever since its official unveiling at Laguna Seca, back in February, the 2016 BMW M2 Coupe has been the star of endless reviews, drive tests, drag races and many, with the model being exclusively built in a limited edition of around 5.000 cars for a period of five years.

Now, the 2016 M2 Coupe has reached the shores of South Africa, with a lot of journalists to perform additional drive tests in order to experience the car`s maneuverability and high-performance driving dynamics.

As we already know, the 2016 BMW M2 Coupe comes with an extremely hot and aggressive attitude, thanks to the M Performance Parts, highlighted by the wide air intakes, M gills, M tailpipes exhaust system or the 19-inch M double-spoke design wheels.

The M2 Coupe is also looking elegant with the BMW Twin circular headlights, air curtains in the outer air intakes or large front apron with the trapezoidal blades.

The interior is also highlighted by the M logo, like the M footrest and knee pad on the center console, M sports seats, M gearshift lever and door sills as well as the Alcantara blue stitching steering wheel with the shift paddles.

Under the hood, the 2016 BMW M2 Coupe in South Africa will use the same 3.0-liter M TwinPower Turbo inline flat-six engine, developing 272 kW and 500 Nm of torque, enough for a 4.3 second-sprint from 0 to 100 km/h, via a seven-speed M Double Clutch Transmission. The topping also stands at an electronically limited 250 km/h. Besides the powerful engine and output, the model also comes with a lightweight aluminum M Sport suspension system which ensures all the necessary ingredients for the perfect ride.
