G-Power has become the latest tuner to have some fun with the second-generation BMW M2, releasing a slew of performance and visual upgrades for it. This bright orange creation might not be to everyone’s taste, but there’s no denying it makes a wild statement and would turn heads even in a sea of supercars. Numerous visual add-ons attempt to fix the M2’s controversial design, and they do a reasonably good job. New carbon fiber intake shrouds have been added to the front bumper and G-Power says it’s also working on a carbon fiber hood, although its not yet ready to share images of it.
The BMW now rocks aftermarket wheels,
available in two designs, and measuring 20×9 at the front and 21×10.5 at the
rear, wrapped in 285/30 and 295/25 tires, respectively. A fixed carbon fiber
rear wing has been added. It sits alongside the carbon lip spoiler from BMW M’s
Performance Parts catalog, alongside a carbon fiber diffuser and an
over-the-top quad tailpipe arrangement.
Then we get to the juicy stuff. The S58B30
3.0-liter twin-turbocharged six-cylinder of the M2 has proven itself to be very
responsive to modifications, so G-Power has developed three power options for
it. The entry-level kit lifts grunt from 453 hp and 550 Nm to 592
hp and 720 Nm. If that’s not enough, G-Power can extract 641 hp and 780 Nm from the same engine thanks to a new exhaust and downpipes.
The flagship G-Power M2 delivers 690 hp and 840 Nm, enough to
easily outmuscle a BMW M8.
