Perhaps the G87 M2 will be significantly differentiated and borrow liberally from the aforementioned concept. Doesn't seem likely at this point, but we'll see.
Agreed. For better or worse, I thought BMW was going with a new design language. Hard to believe they'll be introducing this car with the old design language in a couple years and then keeping it around for another 8 years... I mean the taillights have a near identical shape to the pre-LCI e90 lol. I'm still not totally convinced this is the new 2er unless, like you said, the M2 is radically different.
