M2 base will not have a Competition option.
A separate M2 Competition model is in the plans.
It is not coming at the same time as M2 base.
My estimate of the probability of M2 Comp trailing M2 base by a year or more - 95%.
My estimate of the probability of M2 Comp being an LCI model (early 2025) - 70%.[/COLOR]
More info.
As with any leaked info, it's important to take these claims with a hefty pinch of salt..

Unless it's officially stated on some documentation or someone with verifiable credentials confirms it as fact, I say it could go either way.
Check out the EPA chart in the future model thread. The "M2 Coupe" designation seems quite legit.

I saw it, it's regurgitating the same unverifiable information you had previously posted with nothing to back it up.

Honestly, I have absolutely nothing against the source and have no reason to doubt him but the fact is there isn't anything to back those claims other than speculation. Maybe just a morsel of actually evidence would change my tune.

It's not that seriously to me but I have a suspicion that M2 and M2 Competition will follow the same formula as the M4 & M4C where they will both be released concurrently, where the M2 base will be manual only and the M2C be offered as an automatic, with an onslaught of carbon fiber bits and that silly wing.
I feel like the chart does support his statement so it's not exactly baseless.

But I absolutely hope you're right. Well, not completely. I want to see a comp manual but I guess only time will tell.
