I could see BMW attempting a high revving 4 for the M2, but I'm not sure how it would pan out with the M235 having a nice turbo 6, easily tuned for 100 more HP? I'm also not yet a fan of the 4-bangers. Yes they're lighter, but they're just too rough around the edges for me. Power delivery feels unrefined. There's something to be said about the buttery feel of BMW inline 6 engines. I'd probably consider tuning an M235 before buying the M2 if it came with a 4 cylinder. After all, getting the M235 over 400hp wouldn't be rocket science.
