I believe it has more to do with the "Adaptive" feature, with its added weight, not being needed on a racetrack than cost-cutting. |

This has basically been the worst part of owning the M2 so far. My 350Z had a 20 gallon tank and got a few more mpgs. I feel like i'm CONSTANTLY putting gas in the M2, though i gues each trip is a little cheaper.

I had a good chuckle reading the title
///M stands for Motorsport to start, so BMW now has a "Motorsport Motorsport" division

BMW Motorsport now has two subdivisions under its umbrella, BMW M Motorsport and BMW i Motorsport. I suppose we can add "BMW Motorsport Motorsport" to the list of redundant acronyms, with some of the others being "Automated Teller Machine Machine" (ATM Machine), "Liquid Crystal Display Display" (LCD Display), and "Portable Document Format Format" (PDF Format)

Sounds like a pretty cheap race car for the money. I would be happy to throw cash at it, as its a track car. Caged and you spend cash on a normal M2 to get it to that level. Perfect option. So in for this one.

Also the M differential in the RWD models is NOT TORQUE VECTORING DAMN IT! It has variable lock. This might be against regs or simply no hardcore enough for Motorsport use or maybe to unpredictable as the computer decides when to lock the diff. |

Check out the 235i below with a M Performance 40% locking diff, notice how linear it is to control around the track. |

Normally those E-diffs brake the wheels, instead of a good old mechanical diff that accelerates the wheel with most grip.
