Here are the five must-read, must-watch auto news stories, recalls and videos for Wednesday, October 14, 2015.
INSIDE THE AUTO INDUSTRY
Yesterday we talked about the reveal of a new performance version of the Ferrari F12, by all accounts one of the planet’s ultimate front-engine sports cars. But if the F12 TdF was a little too dear for your pocketbook, BMW’s reveal last night may be more closely aligned with your budget. The M235i was the highest-performing 2-Series, but now there’s a genuine M version of the 2er, the BMW M2. The 3.0L twin-turbo generates 365 horsepower at 6500 rpm and 369 lb-ft of torque at 1400 rpm. The car weighs around 3300 pounds, should be priced from around USD $50,000, looks the business, and is really the true successor for the M3s of yore.
