This G-Power G2M Limited Edition has been unveiled by the Bavarian tuning specialist as an exclusive hard-edged package for the compact sports coupe. Limited to just 25 units (just a bit more limited than the 28 units of the M2 CS that was set aside for South Africa last year), the special M2 sports big power under the bonnet alongside some minor exterior trims.
Using BMW’s S55’s twin-turbocharged 3,0-litre straight-six engine as a base, the G-Power G2M Limited Edition has been tuned to push to 404 kW and 700 N.m of torque. This is up from the 302 kW and 550 N.m produced by the stock M2 Competition.
This power output has been achieved by equipping boost pressure pipes, a sports air filter, crankshaft lock and custom performance software for the engine and seven-speed DCT driving the rear wheels. For an increased aural presence, the G-Power G2M Limited Edition has been fitted with a stainless steel exhaust system with deeptone sound and four 90 mm carbon fibre tailpipes.
Changes to the design are minimal both inside and out. Within the cabin, the G-Power G2M Limited Edition boasts a custom badge with a serial number, LED carbon steering wheel partially upholstered in Alcantara with orange contrast stitching and a set of premium velour carpets. The exterior has been decked out with a G2M Limited Edition decals and an identity package.
No performance figures for this cranked-up BMW M2 have been detailed by G-Power but the tuning firm says it has increased the V-Max limit to 300 km/h. As standard, the car sprints from 0-100 km/h in 4,2 seconds and hits an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h.
While the G-Power G2M Limited Edition boasts some impressive specs, it’s just a few yard-stick behind the BMW M2 Competition by Lightweight that was revealed earlier this year. This project tuned the same engine all the way up to 545 kW through some conclusive software and mechanical upgrades.
