I expect one of the 991 or M2 will sit for extended periods. Only you can decide if that's ok or not.

The forums here are so full of p-car fans who will tell you otherwise, but really, those 2 cars will be pretty similar to you once you have both and drive them often. That's how it was for me anyway.

You are absolutely right.

I'd get a Porsche in addition to the M2. If not, just upgrade to an M2 competition.

1st choice - I would sell the M2 and replace with something else (so many choices if your a car guy, you know; not crazy about a specific car brand) and get the M4.

2nd choice - Keep the M2 and find a non BMW, variety is nice.

If you love M cars more than anything then its not insane but I think you could certainly do better. The m4 is pretty much just a larger, more isolated and more luxurious version of the M2. Since you are keeping the m2 id use it as my DD and get the 991, a GT4, GT350 or c8 corvette personally. Other option if you want a better DD would be c/e63 amg, m5 or rs6.

Personally, I wouldn’t buy two cars that are too similar, but that’s me.
