Color hurts my soul, the wheels are completely unimaginative M6 knockoffs they've been milking since '07, and the badge on the grill is the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Other than that I like it... I guess.
I'm with everyone else. I don't know if they'll actually do an "M2" but I think they've already confirmed an "M235is" which will be close enough, and following the new branding scheme, one can assume that an small E46-sized 4-door will be along under the name of "M135is" that would be totally titties. Especially because Audi is bringing an "A3" sedan next year.
A tiny, manual transmission-ed, lightweight sedan would really take BMW back to its roots. I agree that N/A will be nice but its not really feasible anymore, and the twin-turbo cars have such a strong power band and practically no turbo lag, so just don't look under the hood and pretend.
Or you can just buy and mod E36/E46 because new cars are dumb.
