Personally, I kinda would have thought that BMW could have taken a page out of their own past and out of the Porsche playbook to make the M2CS more special. Carbon Fiber Trunk, and maybe delete some insulation or replace the rear trunk mat with cardboard like the E46 M3 CSL.

No need to take it as far or down the route of the M4 GTS, but stripping a few things away might have made the car seem more "special".
Get ride of the iDrive and keep a simple screen just for track specific data (Configurable gauges, lap timer, etc) and the mandatory back up camera.

Maybe offer the CS with more aggressive front bucket seats. Offer a rear seat delete. Maybe some more track specific brake cooling (real ducting to the front and rear brakes), you get the idea. If you're going to make a third version of an M3, I would assume each would be more and more raw or hardcore, and the CS just doing take it to the level I would have expected.
