New at IND: BMW Performance M2 suspension!



BMW Performance continues to embrace those who wish to adjust their car’s appearance and behavior beyond what’s available on the showroom floor. It is no secret that the M2 is a car that exists to thrill BMW M fans specifically, and BMW clearly sees that M fans enjoy modifying their M cars.

BMW’s partnership with KW ensures that BMW Performance suspension is designed on a strong foundation of experience. What makes KW truly unique is that KW did not start as an OE supplier, but rather evolved into one after years of racing and performance suspension engineering. KW’s engineering is backed by extensive testing, starting at their internal Quality Control process, continuing to their in-house 7 post shaker rig, and moving to the Nurburgring for testing in the harshest motorsport environment in the world.

For these reasons and more, we are confident that the BMW Performance suspension will be an excellent choice for the M2 cars, providing good handling, easy height adjustment, a good ride, and excellent long term reliability. We’re excited to show the M2 community the first example of the BMW Performance suspension!

Here is the link to my sales thread: http://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1247220

That box contains the spanner wrench to adjust the coilover sleeves.

Will be great if you can have a demo car with it lowered to the max.....

Not possible. Calipers are Estoril Blue II, seat stitching is in Polar Blue.

In reading the M Performance Adjustable Coilover announcement it sounds like they are describing a height adjustable spring kit vs. a coilover kit like the one shown.

The adjustable M Performance coilover kit comprises of a KW spring kit with a manually adjustable perch that goes over the standard car’s shocks. The purpose for keeping the same shocks is to insure the quality and dependability of the suspension. Along with the springs, the BMW M Performance coilover kit comes with specifically tuned spring rates, bumpstops and other various hardware to maintain reliability. If bought through BMW and installed by a BMW technician, the car will retain is full manufacturer’s warranty. The coilover kit is able to lower the car from anywhere between 5mm and 25mm. The M2 at the SEMA auto show was shown with a 20mm drop.

Is BMW M Performance releasing both a coilover kit and a HAS kit?

The HAS is for F80/82/83.

Yes, just steering and engine/throttle.

[M3 Adjuster]

I was just asking about these in another thread. Great timing.

And ASD, and exhaust overrun

Looks nice and would love to see how it feels. How about for the big brother M3/4?

i'm guessing he only gets a pb&j sammich?

[Em/1]

As a 1M owner, I am now jealous of one feature of M2--a coilover specifically engineered under the auspices of BMW.

[Law]

Not a fan of the candy red or Star Trek font, but this is pretty cool.

[M3 Number 86]

[Bmw doubles]

Many KW V3 kits use a progressive front spring actually.
