The 2016 BMW M2 is a steroid-addled M235i

If you’re looking for a featherweight M235i, you’ll be disappointed. The extra power and goodies are offset by negligible weight savings. When we first got behind the wheel of the M235i early last year, BMW was quick to point out the spiritual link between the small quasi-M car and its ancestors, the 2002 Turbo and the E30 M3, but we couldn’t help but think fondly of the more potent 1M Coupe.
