The vision concept is a little too wide and probably a little too unrealistic. A wing similar to the CSL concept could look really nice on the M2 along with a little more width like the M2 Racing cars.

I will pray with you.

I know there has been a lot of talk about the CS being the limited model including dealerships being told so. It could still happen but I don't think that the CS would really be considered the Halo car that BMW needs to make to establish the 2 series. Also, no CS cars have a wing so far and I really really think that there is an M2 somewhere with a wing mounted on it.

I would think it would probably be called the GTS/CSL/Racing or something. I really hope it'll be called the CSL along with the full on lightweight treatment.

Basically the Batmobile 2.

It sure seems that the GTS moniker is dead based on the comments from Van meel and the intro of the CS.
I sincerely hope so, never liked them to begin with. In my opinion, the next generation could be a better iteration to bring back the CSL badge. Alternatively, they could also do it on both generations.
