Since the S55 is allready at its hp-limits, its clear that the 500PS couldn´t be reached without water-injection ... the question is whats about the 475PS.

The Spanish CS was basically a regular CP M4 with M Performance parts and special colour. No water injected engine. The new CS will be a toned down version of the GTS with the water injected engine but without the big rear wing and big front splitter...

damn. this might be the M4 that i would consider to have. they fixed everything i wished for from the beginning.

- ehaust backbox doesnt hanging down anymore
- OLED lights
-gts hood
- better looking lighter rims

i might change my order from m2 to M4 CS? hmmm but how much it will cost? surely not so much like gts or?

F80 M3 CRT could be expected for mid/late 2017 to 2018 at the end of the F80 production as an Limited Edition Model.

I don´t think that the M4 CS will be limited.

I sincerely hope that they tried to make this car lighter and did something significant to improve performance. I just hope it's not all smoke and mirrors (Cosmetic).

Likely no roll cage. The point of th CS is to make it more track focused while keeping it a practical daily driver by making it less extreme than the GTS (keeping the rear seats).

Power output rumors have varied between 450, 460, 475 and 500ps, all depending if the CS gets water injection or not.

CanAutM3 u happy bro?

I dont think we can conclude that from the hood alone. They may have elected to use the GTS hood solely for improved cooling and/or weight reduction.

@BMW this blue for the M5 PLEASE

we'll find out soon but for me it would not make sense to have the GTS hood without its engine...

I don't see it having oled
Probabaly just the lci tails
I doubt it will have water injection either

Based on what the Cs package has it'll probabaly be close to the 100k range
If it has water injection then even more

[Levente_CSL]

the camoflaouge pics indicates that it will have OLED 100%. close to 100k ? ugh too much. i forget it then lol

do you think the CS is worth the $90k with all these bits?

It all depends what engine and suspension it has.

I also very much hope it does not come with CCB as standard

[cwhands]

Those wheels from SEMA kind of look like a spin on the FiRs don't they? In any case I'm excited to see this come together. SMB (if that's what it is) will look damn good on the coupe.

You're right CCBs would drive up the price. Sans CCBs, what would you say the power would have to be to justify a $90 - 95k price level. Probably safe to say they're not going to price this anything near the $80k range (reserved for M2 CS lol).

Car looks great, the right performance and visual adds from the GTS but in a more appealing / usable overall package. Love the blue color, rear deck spoiler, hood and new wheels. This is a winner, would love to see a M3CRT or M3CS version as well.

Is it too much to ask for Alcantara seats or at least cloth seats??

[GOLFFRR]

sneaky! very cool

My guess is BMW being the marketing geniuses that they are strategically leaked these pics to wet our appetite. Therefore pics were designed to be low resolution. Bravo BMW, I'm loving the slow striptease and more importantly the car looks awesome.

BS BMW IF YOU DON"T MAKE A M3 CS or M3 CRT

I will gladly give you a check again, hopefully on the M4 CS the CC are options. An the base price is in the 70s san water injection

[CSanto]

When will we see an announcement for this thing?

Not sure I follow you here .

The only "visual adds" on the GTS are the orange accents. All the other bits are functional.

The only item that is "visually similar" to the GTS is the hood. Wheels, splitter, rear deck spoiler are all different. There will be no mistaking a CS from a GTS.
