BMW just unveiled a new track kit for M2s that will make your car go even faster on the track, and without making any more horsepower.
The BMW M Performance Track Kit includes an adjustable front splitter and rear wing, in addition to other upgrades, and is designed for street-legal M2s to supply a little extra fun for owners on the weekends when they trade their baseball caps for helmets.
The front splitter, coupled with the front diffuser and wheel arch diffusers, increases downforce to improve handling on curves and set better lap times, the marque says. The rear wing increases downforce, too, especially when in “Race Mode,” which moves the rear wing back 50 millimeters. In “Street Mode,” the rear wing returns to its normal position so that it complies with German motoring laws.
“Other elements include a threaded chassis with 4-way adjustable rebound and compression damping, adjustable support bearings, and the first special motorsport damper system to also be road-legal,” BMW says. “In addition, the chassis can be lowered by up to 20 millimetres at the front and rear. The height adjustment is infinitely variable.”

BMW developed the M Performance Track Kit with the M2 specifically in mind. The Track Kit was subject to extensive testing in the company’s wind tunnels, and the automaker says Jörg Weidinger, an engineer who has done record runs on the Nürburgring, oversaw fine-tuning of the Track Kit.
It’s unlikely that buyers of the Track Kit will be doing their own record runs on the Nürburgring, but, visually, the kit does look better than most ad hoc kits or even aftermarket kits, since BMW did the creating and there is more design coherence with the rest of the car. The kit is also a simple plug-and-play extension of your M2 that communicates to other drivers that you know your way around a track, if not the Nürburgring.
The M Performance Track Kit will go on sale in July at a price of 23,500 euros, or around $27,500. Installation will cost extra, and the M Performance Track Kit will only be available in Germany.
