M3 MSRP 63,200 (-D&H) with 5% ($3209) discount =$59,991
M2 MSRP 51,000 (not confirmed) with 5% ($2550) discount =$48450
Difference = $11,541
And really your arguing $750 rebate? lol

You didn't get his point. If you don't wait until next year, you can get an M3 now via ED for way more than $5k less than MSRP (7% is around $4300 plus $750 rebate, plus whatever else you can squeeze out of the dealer). Call it $54-55k.
But an M2 ED will go out for $51k - 5% ($2600), plus dealer markup for a great part of 2016 - $48.4k plus markup. Call it $50k.
So it's not a $11k difference at least initially.
It's not that important. If you want the M2 you will get that, and if you want an M3 you can make that work. I bet the lease monthly rates will be very similar. I'm paying around $650/month for my car, for reference.
I like the extra practicality of my M3, but if the M2 had ALL the M3 bits, I'd probably chose that instead.
