Latest compiled info for each model [from the Future BMW Models Info Thread]:

G87 M2

Production 12/22-07/29
Production only at SLP Mexico
Same S58 as G80/G82 under the hood, tuned to 455hp. RWD - of course.
Will be available with a manual and an automatic. Most options will be the same as G80/G82, and I don't see much of that decontenting that was done with the original F87 compared with F80/F82. Though ceramic brakes and bucket seats seem to be missing, all the drivetrain and suspension things are the same as G82, and even carbon roof will be an option. The wheels will be 19" front and 20" rear, G87 specific design. The first four months of its production will fall into the "M 50th anniversary" period so expect the initial run to become somewhat collectible. And the new dashboard will be standard from day one.
G87 M2 Competition will indeed be called "M2 Competition".

Production: 12/22-11/27
Expected model lineup: a 45e hybrid and two different gas engines.
650hp, likely with S58 used in a hybrid setup for the first time, seems to be the only model that will be offered at intro.
Notable standard M equipment: diff, dark blue sport brakes (can choose red or black as options), seats, seat belts, carbon fiber trim. It'll get next level driving assist in mid-2023. Wheel options go from 21" all the way to 23".

Rough guess, when will the M2's start shipping? I assume January '23?

(I'm down for one of the first to hit Texas, so it won't have far to go

)

Seriously stupid question, but if I was interested in collecting it in Mexico and driving home, will 'Mx delivery' become a possibility?

You wouldn't make it 5 miles until the cartels hijacked your brand new M2.
