Or to phrase the usually-well-in-the-know Scott26 (July 2012) (read his interesting post giving us a brief peek behind the ///M curtains: http://www.f30post.com/forums/showpo...9&postcount=23):
"Although work has commenced on the "Downsized" M, The M2 or the replacement for the most admired 1er M Coupe.
It is known as the "Downsized" M because BMW M are investigating the concept of a completely reworked N20 based four cylinder in terms of the successor to the 1M offering the same recipe as before but with lower weight but still offering the entry to M ownership with the key of precision rather than outright power." |
The keyword;
investigating
That`s nice, but doesn`t mean it is a definite choice off weapon. Based on this information all options are open IMHO
