Cool options I really want to be offered are:
  1. Recaro Manual Seats
  2. Rear Seat Delete
  3. CC Brakes
  4. Aluminum Body Panels
  5. Badge Delete
  6. Short Shifter
Couldn't have said it better myself Delnari.

Make all of the options available and let the buyer build his dream M2. Those who want CF roof , go for it, those who want moon roof for cruising around on a Sunday arvo, cool. 6MT, M-DCT, leather, cloth whatever.

My car will never see a track, so I prefer it with all the extras.

One last thing. My current DD is a Golf R stage 2, and the thing I like about it most is the driving position, which is known to be one of the best in motoring. I have looked at the CLA / A 45 and the S3 (in preparation for the RS3) and those cars didn't inspire me as far as the seating position. I took one seat in the M235 and felt immediately at home, everything is in its perfect position. That is what has sealed the deal for me on an M2. BMW have really done their homework on this one.
