Let's say you're looking at a 435i and the M2 is the same price... that's a business dilemma for BMW. I mean, they're not making an ///M version of the F20, so why would they make one of the F22? And certainly, why would they develop an all new 4 cylinder engine for such a limited application? I'm just sayin'....

i mean audi keeps a lot of RS models away from us...
The Base 1M MSRP is the same as the Base 335i Coupe. Don't know if that's a business dilemma at all. Those who want a 435i will be a different crowd than those who'd want a M2.
