BMW’s modern racing pedigree extends to all levels of the sports car racing ladder, not just the very highest ones. Its support for track day heroes and upcoming amateurs is no more apparent than in the M2 CSR, homologated for TCX class racing and competing internationally in its own M2 CS Racing Cup. BMW Motorsport and BMW M collaborated to design the car after adapting key learnings from the creation of the M4 GT4 to entry-level racing.
Weighing in at 3405 pounds and producing 365 horsepower from a 3.0-liter I6 engine in its Cup variant, the M2 CSR offers plenty of power for aspiring future stars who are looking for something that’s not quite a GT4, but also faster than many other entry-level vehicles. The car also features a fully FIA-approved roll cage, racing rear wing and front splitter, and specially tuned ABS system.
