Launch control is very good , will give you around the 3.5 secs to 60

gatorfast · 06-28-2018, 08:12 PM

I enjoyed the review thanks for posting.

Funny guys, did they actually not know what CS stood for? Or part of their carefree stick? Either way they do seem to get some nice cars!

Maitre_Absolut · 06-30-2018, 05:46 PM

Thanks for finding this. Hopefully it will make its way to a dealer here to test drive

allinon72 · 06-30-2018, 07:11 PM

I like these guys, been following them for several months. Although, I'm not sure I've ever seen anyone complain about the thickness of the steering wheel. For most that's a plus.

imho, those two are complete idiots.

Blksnowflake · 06-30-2018, 08:12 PM

I couldn't finish...sound like two chickens clucking at each other to say anything. 30% of the time it was useful, the rest was straight up lil bitch whining.

They actually know what CS traditionally stood for at BMW. I think they were just kidding around about it.

I enjoyed that video. Launch control seems like a beast. I didn't get a CS of course, but I'm sure launch control in my ZCP will be fun as well. I absolutely love the color and CF pieces. And that hood, OMG, I will be getting one for mine.

No chance it will get close to that.

Mthrice · 07-10-2018, 04:44 PM

The gas pump handle was on the right side of the pump. Hello?!?

Mavus · 07-10-2018, 05:19 PM

so what exactly was their message? they did not evaluate anything or demonstrate any driving skills ... useless video

Poor effort and really shouldn't sell a single one as there is no real value here.

This has been BMW's MO for a while now....incremental changes, add a badge that resonates with the faithful, limit production to drum up demand, and profit big. Every review of this car mentions the absolutely ridiculous price.

Thing is in Canada at least, pricing is very good (relative to the M3). No matter how I build an M3, still comes out as best value - if you have already swallowed the pill for a ZCP M3.

Start with
M3 Comp w/ MPE+Carbon = 103k (no prem package, no exec, no leds, etc)

For 7k more (110k), you get Ultimate package, i.e all options. Premium and exec packages (5k each) + LEDs (2K) + Individual colour + Connectivity+etc etc. No brainer.

But then for only 3k more (113k) you get a CS with Limerock grey or Frozen blue.

In a few years, guarateed the CS is worth more than 10k over a ZCP, so Im betting its cheaper to own.
