FORTUNATELY, I believe the same engine will go in the G87 M2C, so that's encouraging!

I fully agree with you & every way here. The reason I originally was turned off & still am by the G80 M3 is simply because of the buck tooth front grills. Have no idea what the designers were on when they thought that grill was okay. But whatever substance it was, I want no part of it. That's exactly why I bought my X3 MC instead. And I hope the new G87 M2 is a return to more traditional & normal BMW styling!
