This is a compiled list of currently known future G87 models. It will get updated periodically as new information becomes available.

• Model Year 2025 G87 will get a +20 hp bump from 453hp to 473hp. This is not an LCI update and it will not be designated a Competition model as some have speculated.

  *New [Feb 5th, 2024] +20hp increase confirmed for Model Year 2025 M2 (G87)
  
  BMWBLOG: BMW M2 To Get 473 HP In 2024 But Don’t Call It M2 Competition
  
  Future BMW model information: Quote: "MY2025 G87 M2 will be tuned to 475hp."
  

• *New [Jan 2nd, 2024] In addition to the hp bump Model Year 2025 M2 with automatic transmission may also receive a +37 lb-ft torque increase from 406 to 443 lb-ft of torque. The AT M2 does not appear to be a Competition model. Manual transmission M2 torque remains unchanged.

  Quote: ynguldyn "There's only one M2 model with start of production in 8/24. It is still called "M2" with no suffixes, like the current one. In a very unusual manner, the torque specifications of this model differ depending on the transmission installed: 550Nm (as before) for the manual but a bump to 600Nm for the automatic."
  
  *New [Jan 12th, 2024] BMWBLOG confirms horsepower power increase for Model Year 2025 and torque increase for AT model. 2025 BMW M2 Might Get 600 Nm of Torque
  
  

• Individual colors coming for Model Year 2025 as reported by BMWBLOG here. Known colors are Grigio Telesto, Java Green and A purple shade (TBD). New standard colors for Model Year 2025 are Sao Paulo Yellow, Fire Red, Skyscraper Grey and Voodoo Blue.

  Similar although slightly limited list of likely colors in the Future BMW model information thread, Quote: "Skyscraper Gray, Mineral Red, Portimao Blue, and Sao Paulo Yellow could be the new colors."
  
  *New [Jan 2nd, 2024] BMWBLOG: 2024/2025 BMW M2 Rumored to Get New Colors: Twilight Purple and Grigio Telesto

• M2 CS will go into production August 2025 and will have over 500hp but only be offered with an AT. Source: BMWBLOG

  G87 M2 CS latest details: Confirmed SOP and AT only

  *New [Mar 12th, 2024] Quote: BMWBLOG "...M2 CS exclusively rear-wheel drive..."

• G87 M2 will get xDrive in 2026 although it's unclear if that's the production or model year.

  BMWBLOG: G87 xDrive rumored to get over 500hp

  *New [Mar 8th, 2024] Quote: BMWBLOG "...sources close to Munich insist an xDrive variant is planned..."

• *New [Mar 1st, 2024] G87 M2 LCI not expected until calendar year 2026.
  

Will the xDrive variant be designated 'Competiton'? Your guess is as good as mine.

Voodoo blue would be awesome!

[FryCookOnVenus]

Amazing news! Thank you for sharing.

I don't care much about the extra HP (it's already way too fast for 99% of my driving) but I'm top of the list at my dealer and will happily pass up the next few allocations so I can get one in Voodoo Blue!

No manual for CS, maybe no manual for xdrive also..?

Kinda glad no manual for the CS lol. Won't be tempted.

Voodoo blue is going to look sick!

They have an obsession with grey/gray on the G87. Dpnt get me wrong, I like my BG and would also be very happy with GT, but how many different shades of one color do we need.

Three years to get the CS...

Too fast? Do you mean based on the conditions you drive in or you just wouldn't want any more power under your foot?

Shit, this and just this! I LOVE blue cars but I’m not sure I love Zandvoort blue.

I’m closer to pulling the trigger on a MY24, but the color options would be really nice

Almost certain there won’t be a manual combined with xDrive, as it isn’t offered on any other BMW CLAR platform at the moment. Only RWD M2/3/4 and the Z4 and the FWD lower powered 1 & 2 Series have manual transmissions available now, it is likely that the next generation of each series won’t offer any manual transmissions at all.

Those are the colors the car should have launched with! I wish I was capable of waiting another year

Having more power is never a bad thing. But, if I had a 9" dick and a genie granted me an extra centimeter, I doubt it would really improve anything for me or my wife.

For people chasing lap times, I'm sure the extra HP will be appreciated, but I'm using this car as a daily. Like a 9" wiener, it's already absurdly powerful and will deliver plenty of thrills.

[truekumar]

Will the MY25 be getting any sort of facelift at all? Or any aesthetic changes? I also read somewhere that there could be some different wheel options?

Going by the normal pattern, besides wheels and colours, unlikely until the LCI model for 2026 or 2027 MY.

Makes sense considering earlier reports that they are killing all base models and leaving only competition models. With the manual M4 gone, it leaves the space for the M2 to fill in.

Agree with this. The supra I had was already more than fast enough on the road... Even on the track I wasn't experienced enough to take full advantage of the power (I'm working on it). The extra power will probably not be too noticeable but in the long run not a bad thing, though probably more just a measuring contest.

Yep, was planning to wrap mine this colour. Might just swap the car out instead!

[DrewNewM2]

I have an order in production with a VIN for a 2024 in Brooklyn Gray 6Mt but seriously considering passing on it and getting a 2025 in Skyscraper. Love that color on the G80 with black wheels, lip, side skirts, etc. I don’t care about the HP bump.

The new colours are good.

How good would a São Paulo Yellow look next to my Valencia Orange 1M!! 😍

Just wish they reduced the weight

Too many M3s in SPY (my opinion only). Car would look great in Daytona Violet Metallic if that were the purple.

This is what I'm counting on lol. No temptation to "upgrade" my current 6MT.

If they did somehow released the CS in 6MT, i'd almost certainly HAVE to buy it

.right....

[DrewNewM2]

Would like to see some additional interior color choices as well… maybe Kyalami Orange or Fiona Red.
