As previously released features are trickling down the ladder, all-new features keep being introduced higher up to preserve the hierarchy and feed the overall improvement cycle, so that any given model you pick from the M lineup should be objectively sportier than its predecessor (except perhaps the current M135...).
On top of M mirrors the M240i also seems to be getting the M hood bulge, so the M carbon roof may very well be available here as well. This cascading down of iconic M features doesn't seem like a problem to me as long as the hardcore versions in turn keep gaining new race-derived features and remain evidently sportier and more desirable than the lower-tier versions, which they will
