Also, I thought part of the initiative of the M2 was to get a product thats more affordable for the younger folks?

And the GT350 looks like it may come in at $53K; Ford is looking impressive.That should create some price competition.
If the GT350 comes in at 53k base, expect the M2 to cost quite a bit more. Remember BMW is a premium brand and the price will reflect that. They are not going to price exactly the same as the GT350 and it's definitely not going to be lower than the Ford.

Edit: looked up the GT350's specs and if it is coming in at $53k, it actually does provide some stiff competition for BMW. However, we must remember that BMW is a premium brand and they are going to charge accordingly.
