Is This A BMW M2 CSL Belting Around The Nurburgring?

A camo'd M2 belting around the Nordschleife has piqued our curiosity. Is this the rumoured M2 CSL?

It’s an M2, it’s wearing camo, it looks a little lower than standard, and it’s going around the Nurburgring very fast. So what else can this car be other than a hotter M2?

BMW has previously said that it won’t build an ultra-expensive, ultra-hardcore M2 GTS, but when we spoke to M boss Fran van Meel earlier this year, he did drop a little hint that seemed to suggest an M2 CSL might well be on the cards. A CSL M2 has since been rumoured through various reports, too.

It’d be awesome to see BMW give the M2 the one thing it’s missing - a proper S engine, perhaps the S55 from the M4 - but a small bump in power from the existing N55 is what we’d expect. As well as the aforementioned drop in ride height, we can also expect a wider track, beefier brakes and some weight reduction. And if it’s anything like the old E46 M3 CSL, it’ll be worth a gazillion pounds in 10 or so years.

The camo on all these test cars is to disguise the details of the cars shape. So even if you take a photo of it, it is nigh on impossible to get accurate measurements etc. of the car. It’s simply a manufacturers way of hiding the cars specification so they can still test it on the road.
