It's not as if M ownership is like regular BMW ownership. And the "cannibalise sales stuff" is kind of nonsense, because you either buy an M2 or an M3, either way it's money in the kitty, and if they're closer in price the profits will be similar, it's just more choice.
I'd be far more concerned about money going to Merc and Audi who are on par/ahead with power in their AMG/RS and ahead of the game with their 2nd in line S and AMG Sport models.
I wonder if it will be limited edition?

I agree with you. Bit since it's the entry model they prob won't do it. What they could do is a limited edition CSL model sub 3000lbs with 399HP. But that prob won't even make it it the states. Plus a limited edition means it will prob be more than an M4
