If you still think the 1er M Coupe is a 135i with a tune then you have never driven the 1er M Coupe because if you jump straight into a 1er M Coupe from a 135i you know instantly , you feel instantly and then there is the all important goosebumps as 1er M Coupe continues to be a very sensual car as well as respected its a future classic.
I have not driven the M2 but those that have testify to the same philosophy that its is not just a more powerful M235i and that character and behaviour is in a league of its own.
I am not as close to M2 as I was to 1er M Coupe so I can only update on what I hear or what I see in the FIZ car park but it is an exciting looking car, more muscular and pronounced than the M235i as well as using a new direction of function through form with its dramatic aerodynamics that make sure that it's not just an M235i in appearance.
We will learn more this Summer.
