Let's make the M2 a little different ... How about a light weight 'raw' track car for the street with a noteworthy 10,000 rpm naturally aspirated inline 6 engine.

I want to see BMW engineers give us something special not just a smaller version of a 4 with a de-tuned 'off the shelf' engine.

We need some excitement back in the ///M line-up
While you are absolutely right about the need for excitement and for something special and spicy, sadly, it won't happen. Best bet is for a really good base little M car which will be easily tunable. Like some 1Ms which were turned into a track monster, relatively easily, some even kept the appearance pretty clean.

I would love to see a factory 1M CSL back then and will love to see a M2 CSL in the near future but I believe it is simply day-dreaming.
