I only see the M2 getting a 4 instead of a 6 cylinder engine as marketing, it will be the smallest M car in the lineup so just a 4 cylinder engine. And performancewise an I6 could destroy the M3/M4.

We all know too, BMW is getting greener and greener because of governmental and political lies.. er...treaties (that's not BMWs fault to begin with, they are forced just like the other manufacturers, but I don't like it at all) so a small 4 pot 'more mpg' car can come in very handy as well

+1 on the marketing - an I4 in the M2 makes the line up for M nice and neat.

As long as the damn thing drives like we all want it to, I don't care what they put in it to be honest.
