There's so much they could do with the car now that mechanical components won't figure into the design (packaging as opposed to styling).
Isn't the entire point/appeal of the M2 is that its visceral and engaging to drive? Remove the manual transmission or even flappy paddles, exhaust note, and add several hundred pounds of batteries and the car is no longer an M2.
