Trusty BIMMERPOST source Ynguldyn has updated our future model timeline, which now includes confirmation that the M2 CS will indeed feature the M3/M4's S55 engine, but slightly detuned to 400 HP (vs 425 HP in the standard M3/M4)!

An aural preview of this came in the form of this M2 CS prototype recently spied testing on the Nurburgring sounding very much like an M3/M4 and not an M2.

In addition to the new engine, the M2 CS will feature other track focused bits such as suspension tweaks and aerodynamic parts - such as more aggressive front splitter and rear spoiler or wing. Expect a throatier exhaust and possibly optional carbon ceramic brakes as well.

The M2 CS will come to market in 2018.
