Will there be a self-driving Porsche, Ferrari, Lambo, Aston, etc.? If people are willing to pay for it, it will happen. But, what it will mean to have a self-driving M car is interesting. Stiffer suspension? Sport styling (in and out) and features (think seats and screens)? Probably. But what about the engine. They'll likely give you an engine with 500ish hp and lbft. You just won't get any benefit out of it until you take it to your local self-driving track or drag strip. What you will certainly get is ///M power ASD, so even when you aren't going fast, at least it will sound like you are.
