BMW M235i Cup testing
Yes, more pictures of over-endowed 2 Series testing at the Nurburgring but we can't help ourselves
If so then these additional pics of the M235i Racing/Cup/whatever are worth a little extra scrutiny, and not just because it looks cartoonishly fabulous with its pumped up arches and mahoosive rear wing. Check out those underbonnet shots for instance and the revelation of a BMW M3/M4 style 'boomerang' carbon fibre strut brace. Is it running the engine too? There's no charge cooler on top like the M's twin-turbo S55, suggesting it sticks with the 'civilian' single-turbo N55. But that engine has never been lacking in grunt so there are unlikely to be any complaints there - it'll just be a question of how much power it's 'allowed' to have before it knocks too loudly on the M4's 431hp. We'll take a punt on the mid to high 3s.
Enjoy the pics and continued speculation; hopefully we'll have more concrete info very soon.
