I can understand that. BMW really sprung this car on us quite suddenly.
I respectfully disagree.

The M2 CS was repeatedly discussed on Bimmerpost (and other forums/websites), long before its official release early November 2019: power output, transmission, brakes, colors, wheels, etc.

An example: February 2019 post (almost 2 years ago):

M2 CS = 6MT stock and M-DCT optional (alike the original M2 and M2 Competition).
How can you be certain of the manual option. Itīs crazy that people say something like this when no dealers have info.
But iīm glad somebody knows so i can be ready.
Thankīs for all the info.
Best regards


By no means I made that up. That piece of information was based on 100% accurate information (and later also proved to be correct).

Most specs of the M2 CS were known long before the official release. But not everything that was heard through the grapevine, was also posted.

Bonus: an M2 CS test mule in March 2019: still featuring an armrest, but already featuring the alcantara steering wheel and M2 CS seats (but not yet in full Merino Leather). Purpose of that scoop picture ? 6MT will be available on the M2 CS:
