Remember this? No more Dogmas.
Please read the poll result lot of people don`t want to see a 4cyl in this car why BMW want to insist on it?

A 4cyl will sound horrible, won`t be smooth, won't have such a nice flat torque curve, will probably get and higher turbo lag, will probably get long term reliability issues(if it does have 180-190hp/liter) and will probably use more fuel in the real world than a straight 6. For all of thoses reason I find the 4 cyl to be unacceptable in the M2 especially that this car won't sell cheapt. If BMW go ahead with this in the M2 that will be a complete deal breaker for me and for alot of person I would think.
Bravo !!
Couldn't have said it better myself.

BMW would be foolish to ignore the desires of 85% of the potential buyers of this car.
