The 2016 BMW M2 Coupe sounds good in stock form as BMW M didn’t touch the TwinPower Turbo 3.0-liter inline six engine that pumps out an impressive 365 bhp and 343 lb-ft of torque. This should carry it around race tracks in fast pursuit if needed.

When the 3.0-liter turbocharged inline six is mated to the optional M Double Clutch Transmission (M DCT) and with the launch control activated, the new BMW M2 sprints from 0-60 mph in a quick 4.2 seconds (4.4 s with the six-speed manual gearbox). The top speed of the all-new BMW M2 is electronically limited to 155 mph.
