Wasn't the S55 partially derived from the N55?

Yes, but it is not an N55, it is an S55. M2 will be the poor man's M4. Unfortunate.

that's fine with me....these are all very nice cars. I'd like to meet the 'poor man' who can afford an M2.
many of us can afford an M3/M4 but prefer a smaller more engaging package. FWIW my backup plan is either an F80 M3 or buying out my 135is lease.
