The max jump from M240i to M2 is from 382HP to 453HP.

In fact the M240i xDrive will likely out accelerate the M2 from 0 to road legal speed limits, which is what most people can experience. Same is not true on M3, because xDrive is available.

I do track the cars often, so the main attraction of the M2 is the better tires and brakes, but if I didn't track, there will be little to push me to M2.
There is a noticeable difference in chassis dynamics. If you cannot tell, then I am jealous as if that were the case for me, it would be an easier decision to forego the M variant.

Not trying to be an elitist prick. This is me and I am sure others will concur. The difference in the "butt dyno" and I am not talking about strict power can be substantial but also depends on the driver.
