Per Scott26 on the subject of CF roof: "Well you could be offered one."

Hopefully. However, X5M and X6M test mules featured the same rectangular reflectors that you see on the M2, on similar horizontal bumper spots. In the final version of the X5M and X6M, the rear side pockets feature reflectors.

Thats the Vision GT6 concept. The M2 will look very similar too it, just toned down.

Can you tell if that's a photo or just a rendering?

The picture is too small for my eyes to distinguish between the two possibilities.
Do you think it might bear a resemblance to the "revised" 3.0 CSL Hommage which is predicted to show up at Pebble?
I know the VGT and 3.0 CSL H are different designs; but, Scott26 has referred to both, I think, when he's talked about the M2. Not the case when he's talked about the M4 GTS. File all that under "gratuitous thoughts."

In all honesty I'm lost now and just going to wait and see. So much confusion, why not just let us know what's coming when BMW!?

FWIW, here's another look at what , possibly, came from the same set of drawings (what's with the windshield wiper up.). Grey is so.....grey. But, I'll take it!

Design lines can be better distinguished in white (also check the position of the windscreen wiper).

Reminds of the "rim protector" of BBS CH-R wheels: if you scratch it, just replace it.

On the 3 series there is an OEM wheel with a red line circumference.

That VGT, never tire of seeing it!

Hypothetically,
This would be your BMW M2 CSL...

You can definitely see similarities between both concepts, the Hommage is a concept
but the Vision GT you can see the more realistic elements applied to an existing car in this case the 2er or the M2 in which the aerodynamic packet is heavily carried over but adapted for the road and reality.

You are about to witness a new radical side of BMW M. But using the same philosophy as used within the E9 CSL series. The adaptation of Motorsport innovation for the road but this time its a much larger player field in terms of what innovation means today.
That means a variation of an eDrive drivetrain designed to enhance performance whilst also showcasing sustainability.
