BMW May Be Plotting The Release Of A M2 GTS Or M2 CSL If Market Demands It

The introduction of the BMW M2 into the entry-level performance coupe market has ignited a wave of interest from fans of Bimmer’s M performance division. That interested could soon be paid off in kind by the German automaker with reports that the company has given the nod to release a higher performance version of the M2. There’s no official announcement yet, but the car could be introduced as the M2 GTS or the M2 CSL.

German automotive news site Auto Motor und Sport came out with the report, and while the excitement surrounding the possible release of these models should still be met with cautious optimism pending a BMW announcement, it’s worth pointing out that there is a precedent for an M-badged BMW to get either the “GTS” or “CSL” name plate.

Indeed. As Porsche has shown with its endless parade of 911 variants, people love special editions and special editions do not require a lot of engineering to pull off. I say go for it.

I currently have a M235i xDrive ragtop, but if they come out with a M2 xDrive ragtop, I'll be there with you.

Keep the price of the M2 affordable and bring out a convertible version.
