It isn't just the LSD that gives that vibe as I stated in my post.
Also having a LSD as an option versus an after purchase accessory is quite different.
I mean what engine would go in it? A beefed up N20, only then it would just have the same hp as the N55 in the M235i. A detuned S55, not going to happen. They won't just make a one off engine for an M2. Will it be another parts bin car like the 1M. A carbon roof, trunk, etc are out the window with a car in a lower price range (unless they hike up the price considerably).
Since they were targeting 1M performance with the M235i, it just leaves one wondering.
But like I said, they could do a low volume M2 for a year like the 1M. Don't see it happeing for years.
