BMW’s smallest sports car just got a serious power boost. The German marque has just unveiled the new 2026 M2 Competition Series (CS). The high-performance variant lacks a manual transmission option that is one of the base model’s most attractive features, but it makes up for it by being the most powerful rear-wheel drive M car you can buy. Since its introduction in 2016, the M2 has carved out a niche for itself as the enthusiast’s M car of choice.

BMW understands that sometimes you need a roof over your head. The German luxury marque has just unveiled a dazzling new shooting brake called the Concept Speedtop. And the two-door, just like year’s Skytop roadster, is getting an ultra-exclusive production run. The Speedtop made its debut this past Friday at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este on the shores of Lake Como in Italy one year after the Skytop did the same.

Looking back more than six decades, it’s generally agreed by automotive historians that the 1964 Pontiac GTO was the first true muscle car. Sure, there were the 1957 Rambler Rebel and Chevy Bel Air “Fuelie,” but to many people alive at the time, and later generations who’ve driven them since, a “real” muscle car was only made in America and built from 1964 until—maybe, the most charitable extension—1973.
