I wouldn't be shocked to see the M2 utilizing a modified inline 4, 2.0 liter N20 (for weight savings).
Profit wise it would be a bad idea. They already have an inline 6 from M3/M4 that needs less modification( less power) to fit in the M2. Or even an higher performing N55 with 350-380hp costs a lot less than a new engine that will only be used in one car.

I expect far more differences on chassis, suspensions, brakes, and transission than the engine for the M2.
