The M2 situation is different anyways because there's no direct M2 race car the street car is being based on...
The racing and street versions don't match 100%, but really, the silhouettes are quite similar.
It's not misrepresentative as I'm speaking purely about aero (specifically rear spoilers) in relation to the CSL's history.
