The M2C is a good example of how a situation can take an unexpected turn (see here). Quite a gift for BMW enthusiasts.
Something else about expectations and pipe dreams. The screenshot below was leaked in Autumn 2010 (no photoshop). The last line reflects that BMW M had plans to release an E82 1M (still codenamed "M Pyrat" back then) for the US featuring the N54B30TO engine with a 332kW output (445 hp - 451 ps) (LL = Linker Lenkung = left hand drive) with start of production in March 2011 (as the "regular" 250kW 1M (335 hp - 340 ps)). As we all know, it never materialized but that unicorn Über 1M would have been quite the ride.

That was a data error (EETC measured HP entered as kW).
