The M240i is $45,445 with destination. Add HK, Leather, and Nav and its $49,720. Deals are available to easily get a conservative 7% off. Many people get much more off. Brings price to $46,239

That's $11,456 difference give or take.
Plenty of people got their cars at MSRP, some even below. You can say an M240i is more easily attainable, but please don't arbitrarily add a $5k markup and make it an apples to apples comparison. Otherwise by that logic one could also make the argument that an M240i similarly equipped (i.e. w/leather, NAV, limited slip diff, 19" wheels etc.) costs more than an M2.
I was answering Justin's question about the M2 only being a few thousands of dollars more expensive than the M240i with a valid scenario. I also said some got the M2 at MSRP. Don't make this a pissing match please.
