Next Gen 2 Series FWD

As the title suggests, is the general view that the next gen 2 series will be FWD based? Do we have any credible data to confirm either way?

I'm just trying to figure out how much my M2 CSL will be worth.

Never mind i used search function no one knows

You seem confident about the definitive production of an M2 CSL.

Speculation? Here is a UKL (FWD platform) based 140i photographed testing in Spain just last month. It will happen. Current platform is old, and not versatile enough to support EV models.

Yes but they are also supposed to introduce a Z2 which is RWD.

Open a dealer and make stock of all the 1/2ers you can buy. Make a fortune when next gen comes. You are welcome.

Do you really think they aren't making a special edition M2 at this point? I'd be interested to hear your case as to why.

I wouldn't be surprised if they released one but your speculating about the M2 CSL and you'd be speculating about how much its worth compared to a model not released yet either.
I'm just having some fun. I didn't mean to offend with a double dose of speculation. Really. My question was more about the drive-train and I edited it shortly after after searching.

If it was truly about making money there are probably better means, ones with no speculation, risk, or restriction that guarantee outsized returns upfront.

Very high likelihood due to ease of integration with the active tourer line - essentially sharing one platform.
