R&T bases its claim on a C&D article that based its claim on a "recently leaked list" published on a Supra forum. Quite surprisingly BMWBlog now also took over that "Competition Package" rumor (see here: http://www.bmwblog.com/2017/08/17/re...ge-heading-us/).

That list to which reference is made is old news over here. It was published in full and debated at Bimmerpost almost six months ago: http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1358847. Identical, except for the watermark.

Except if BMW fooled us all, the "M2 Competition" mention in that referenced list = M2 CS.

The only thing I noticed worth mentioning though: recently an M2 test mule was lapping the Nürburgring again with an N55 sounding engine while most other M2 test mules had a distinctive S55 sounding engine (see here: http://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...3#post16905583). It puzzled me why. Maybe it's for comparison purposes ?
