Auto Zeitung first report on BMW M2 - laps Hockenheim in 1:13.2 min

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
I just copy and paste for you by another website:

first results:
Weight: 1520 kg
0-100 kph: 4,2 s
0-200 kph: 14,9 s
Braking (c/w): 34,5 / 33,6 m
Fuel Consumption: 12,8 L/100 km
Laptime Hockenheim Short: 1.13,2 min
(M4 : 1.12,8 min - M3 f80 :1.13,1)

Verdict: the car got the best possible rating. "A great engine and a racing-like set-up. Furthermore, the M2 is a lot of fun to drive, also in everyday situations."

I really hope that the weight was with full fuel tank but still I am not sure..
Really promising...

Could you please provide a link? The German "Auto Zeitung" does not have anything like this online (or in the magazine).

The M2 DCT weights 1520kg, the 6MT is 25kg lighter.

Is it not Auto Motor und Sport that does their Supertests on the Hockenheim Short.

It's Sportauto, subsiduary of Auto Motor und Sport.

I bought the mag. A comparison between M4 and M2.

Great car, 17k euros difference..So M2 great M car in short. But no Hockenheim laptimes whatsoever..

Ah, it is in the new issue of Auto Zeitung which will be released on March 9, 2016 (tomorrow). Apparently the tester was Horst von Sauma, the Supertest driver of fame from SportAuto!

Yes, DCT is called DKG (Doppelkupplungsgetriebe)in some other countries.

I did. The text is very sparse (barely a page, and most of that regular stats listing), but very positive. Tested was the DKG (or DCT) version of the M2.

The first post already contains everything that is really memorable about this test. In particular the very nice Hockenheim time (almost a full second faster than the 1:14.1 of the 1M in SportAuto with the same driver), and the surprisingly fast 0-200 km/h acceleration.

It is unfortunately not clear if the weight of 1520kg was actually measured. It is probably just the BMW value for EU weight of DKG version (1595kg) minus the 75kg of driver/luggage.

In the Autozeitung comparison, the show "leergewicht" of the M2 is 1520Kg.
Leergewicht mean "empty weight".... but I don't know if they include any gas or oil in the weight.

M4?
Cayman S?
Golf R?
Mustang GT?

Yes. Could have been presented better and with other cars.

Anyway, here is a snapshot of cars around that time and a link to the full list.
