If it is a CS, then no manual will be offered in order for BMW to keep it consistent with the M4.

Allowing only the DCT allows BMW to keep the performance numbers in-line as a top of range model.

Having said all that, I would spec it as a 6-speed if available and I were in the market for one.

The headlights being pre-F8X LCI is an interesting twist.

Are these photos new, or were they taken a while ago and just being released now?

F82 is at least staying until 2020

Maybe they thought about making it, then decided not to.

That would help explain the headlights.

Couldn't agree more, can't take that stock wheel gap in the front... my MY18 isn't even here yet and I'm already figuring out my options to lower it.

Thank you, BMW. Thanks you for showing the M3 love. It was getting really tiring with all the good stuff going towards the coupe only.

You guys in the states really love your manual gearboxes!!

It used to be that way over here too, but we're mainly DCT/ZF converts over here now.

Agree here. Definitely like the base , zcp, cs and CSL ... there just needs to be a little more 6MT in the mix. Hopefully they can redeem themselves with the M2 and perhaps if they make an M4 CSL they need to keep 6MT.
