2025 BMW M2 (6-Speed Manual)

For the 2025 model year BMW gave the G87 M2 a mid-cycle update, raising the S58 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six to 473 hp. The six-speed manual remains the standard, no-cost gearbox and keeps the M2 firmly rear-wheel drive, sending 406 lb-ft to the rear axle through an Active M Differential (the eight-speed automatic gets a higher 442 lb-ft and is quicker). BMW quotes 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds for the manual and a 177-mph top speed with the optional M Driver's Package. As the entry point to BMW M's coupe range, the stick-shift M2 is pitched squarely at the driving enthusiast and the track-day crowd.
