At the end it also claims that the original plan was to make an M2 with 240HP inline six. This has to be a typo since the 260HP 130i came out in 2005.

Overall, a lot of details, but I don't feel very confident about the info presented.
Exactly, I read the article and noticed the same errors, so must assume it's nonsense.
