Overview

The 2019 BMW M2 makes for an excellent contender in the subcompact coupe segment. With a single trim on offer, the 2019 BMW M2 retails for an MSRP of $59,895 competing directly with the Porsche 718 Cayman S, the Audi TT RS, and the Infiniti Q60. Only a 3.0L Turbocharged Inline-6 engine is offered, mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. Together, they produce 405 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 4 seconds, the BMW M2 maintains a combined fuel economy of 20 MPG. BMW Offers the M2 sedan in 5 stunning colors, with the Sunset Orange Metallic being a particular favorite of ours.

Buying Advice

For 2019, there is only one trim level available for the M2. The transmission is one of the few options left to us. For the best experience with the M2, get the manual transmission. There are two packages we recommend: the M Driver's Package and the Executive Package. Both packages add features such as WiFi Hotspot, Heated Steering Wheel, Auto High Beams, Speed Limit Info, Wireless Charging, and Adaptive LED lighting.
