RWD - that is great but to be expected. I wouldn't want a AWD M2 CSL to compromise dynamics.
Automatic transmission only we already knew this but it still is sad. I wish BMW took note of what Porsche did with the GT3 and make it manual again.
Wheels off the big brother CS/CSLs that's disappointing as these can be purchased elsewhere. I would have wanted a unique wheel design for a unique car.
Carbon roof I sure would hope so on a six figure M2.
Bucket seats See above
Alcantara steering wheel as standard Not everyone will want that but that's fine, I think it adds to the sporty touch of the car and makes it more unique. There's just a lot more upkeep than the standard leather.
Likely to be available in Brooklyn Grey, Sapphire Black, or BMW Individual paints with full leather interiors only (black or black/red) you would hope that for a special car, there's special colors. The M5CS had that flat green, maybe the M2CS will have something unique to the car.
Just from this info, it really seems lackadaisical. I was hoping there would be more details on the unique CS items on the car. But for what it's worth, we're still a year away from production. I want that trunk though.

Let's just say it. We wanted a CSL, not a CS.
