BMW’s M Performance Track Kit Takes The M2 To Another Level

If you’ve ever taken your car to a track day and thought “I wish I could push this thing even harder,” BMW just answered that call. The brand’s M Performance division has announced a new M Performance Track Kit specifically designed for the BMW M2, a package that brings genuine motorsport hardware to a car you can still drive home afterward.

Even better, despite the M2 getting a little refresh in 2025, this kit will work with any 2023+ G87-generation M2s, so existing owners can get in on the fun. (Sorry G42 owners, this kit won’t work on your cars unfortunately)

The M Performance Track Kit was developed in collaboration with BMW M specialists and was aerodynamically optimized in the BMW wind tunnel, drawing on the same expertise that has powered countless race wins. It becomes available for order in the third quarter of 2026, with pricing to be announced closer to that date.

Race-Proven Aero Straight From the GT4 and GT3 Program

The most visually dramatic element of the Track Kit is the swan neck rear wing — the same design used on the BMW M4 GT4 and BMW M4 GT3 customer racing cars competing in series like IMSA WeatherTech and SRO GT America. The swan-neck design isn’t just for looks. By mounting the wing supports from above rather than below the airfoil, air passes under the wing with a cleaner path, which helps maintain the airspeed needed to generate meaningful downforce.

The wing is manually adjustable with two angle-of-attack settings so you can tune downforce to suit the specific circuit you’re running. There’s also a unique “Race Mode” that shifts the wing 50 millimeters rearward, moving it farther from the roofline to reduce interference and significantly boosting its aerodynamic effectiveness. One detail that’s easy to overlook: a brake light is integrated directly into the rear wing, keeping the setup street-legal wherever a visible third brake light is required.

A Front Splitter That Keeps the Aero Balanced

Piling on rear downforce without addressing the front end would just make the car nervous and unpredictable at speed, so BMW sorted that too. The manually adjustable front splitter moves forward in Race Mode to increase surface area and generate more front downforce, working together with the M2’s stock front diffuser to keep the aero balance in check. When it’s in Race Mode, an M tricolor graphic appears with a “for track use only” label.

The splitter’s ends feature integrated canards for additional aerodynamic bite, and a second pair of canards is mounted to the front bumper just above them. Those upper canards can be removed for street driving, but the ones built into the splitter stay put. The whole carbon fiber assembly is also protected by skidplates that contact the ground first should you run out of clearance — a practical detail that matters when you’re pushing limits on track. Rounding out the aero package is a scoop that feeds cooler air directly into the upstream engine oil cooler, improving cooling performance both on track and on the street.

A Suspension Setup Worthy of the Track

The chassis upgrades are just as serious as the aero work. The Track Kit includes a threaded suspension system with 4-way adjustable rebound and compression damping, plus adjustable support bearings. BMW describes it as the first special motorsport damper system to also be road-legal, which is pretty impressive.

The 4-way adjustment is worth understanding: the “speed” being referenced isn’t your road speed, but the velocity of the damper piston itself. Fast-speed damping handles sharp, sudden inputs — like hitting curbs on track or a pothole on the street — while slow-speed damping governs the more gradual movements that happen during acceleration, braking, and cornering. Having independent control over both is a capability you’d normally only find on dedicated race cars.

Ride height is adjustable too, with up to 20 millimeters of drop at both the front and rear axles, and the adjustment is infinitely variable. Front camber is also adjustable for additional grip when you need it most.

One open question: how this suspension interacts with the M2’s standard Adaptive M system hasn’t been fully addressed by BMW yet. It’s possible the adaptive system gets deactivated when the kit is installed, or it could come with an electronic cancellation solution. There’s also a chance BMW has done something more impressive and integrated the 4-way damping control with existing cockpit controls, which would make this package even more compelling.

Built for Track Days, Not Just the Showroom

BMW has been paying close attention to the growing track day culture, and this kit feels like a direct response to enthusiasts who want more than a stock setup can deliver on a closed circuit. The Track Kit’s components all interact as a system, and BMW notes the package is especially effective when paired with ultra-track tires.

The man responsible for putting it all together was Jörg Weidinger, a record driver and BMW M test engineer responsible for chassis development, who handled the overall fine-tuning of the complete package. Needless to say, this kit should make the BMW M2 even more of a track weapon than it already is!

What We Know About Availability and Pricing

The M Performance Track Kit for the BMW M2 will be available to order from July 2026. BMW hasn’t released pricing yet but says figures will be available closer to the on-sale date. Given the level of motorsport hardware involved (wind-tunnel-developed aero, race-spec dampers, and GT-car wing technology), expect this to be a serious investment for serious drivers.

We’ll be sure to let you guys know when BMW announces pricing for the M Performance Track Kit for the G87 M2.
