Cue the G82 M4 CSL and F87 M2 CS values going to the moon.
I would be very surprised if they didn't offer a manual transmission…
They have a manual rated for 473 hp, so they should do it. But we will see. They aren't offering a manual M4 in the Uk or EU, so if they CS a global model, they may decide to standardize it as an auto.

I find it hard to believe that it will be just 26hp above the basic M2. There will be a Competition in the middle , and makes sense to be 473hp , just like the basic M3/4 which come with a stick. Most likely the M2 CS/CSL will be 500/520hp max.
