Given enough room, the model will eventually hit a top speed of 280
km/h.
Besides
the almighty engine, the M2 CS has a high-performance braking system, an Active
M Differential and an Adaptive M suspension. The car has also a number of a
carbon fiber reinforced plastic components including the hood, roof and rear
spoiler. Other carbon fiber goodies include the front splitter, rear diffuser
and mirror caps.

sport seats, an Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel and ambient lighting. Drivers

universal garage door opener. Other highlights include adaptive LED headlights,
dynamic cruise control and park distance control.

tires and M Carbon Ceramic brakes. The
BMW M2 CS will arrive in the United States during the second half of 2020. It
will be available exclusively for one model year as the car is designed to
celebrate the coming end of the current 2-Series.
