Really? So you think the CS with the missing armrest, one zone AC, missing comfort access is a better daily as my loaded ZCP?

And yes, I drove both... F80 and F82 CS and had a lease offer on a CS which was lower than my current ZCP!

It is a better daily driver. The ZCP has a much harsher ride than the CS and you will hear that from many CS owners who came from the ZCP including myself. You don't miss the armrest, sounds weird but you don't notice it's not there. The A/C is just fine in the car. The ZCP was very bouncy on the road and didn't soak up bumps that well, the CS does this fairly well. It's dialed in better than the other cars. Comfort Access is not a killer for me, you get use to it after a day or two.

Thank God I'm on Coils

I'm sure I could get use to it, my M5 E34 or my E38 is the same way, but I don't want to, not on a 2018 car.

Same goes for the AC, my co driver is always cold...lol

The A/C in here is just as cold. 3 minutes into the drive and my wife is freezing and asking me to turn it off

Same could be said about the e36 M3 LTW back when it was new...what are those worth now?

It's not about cold...it's about different temperatures driver and passenger.

Why do you think we saw 800$ lease deals on a 105K here on the forums? People paid more for civic M3's.

And yes, the CS is a better car with all that discounts and offers and the money in the trunk from NA.

A little late to the party but am thinking of getting into an M3 CS. I've done some research but can't seem to find an answer. The one I'm looking at doesn't have the thick alcantara wheel that I see in all the pics. Is it because it's heated? Anyway it's priced at $87K Canadian ($66K US). Good deal? Thanks.

In Canada the alcantara wheel was an option, so not all of the CS there have them.

The alcantara steering wheel is a $700 option in Canada on the CS (as in most parts of the world). Sadly though, the heated steering wheel is not offered at all on the CS.

At $87k CAD, is it a new one?

It has 90KM on it so I'm guessing yes? It's out of province so I've yet to see it in person.

Also when I run the VIN it says 437m wheels from the factory. Those are definitely not what's pictured in the dealerships ad. Anyone else have this? Are the 763m something the dealer installs after the fact?

No, the CS comes from the factory with 763m wheels finished in orbit grey.

That's what I figured but here's the VIN. WBS8M9C56J5L71664

Spot on. Drove 100 miles in my ZCP to pick the CS ... never drove CS before .. the first thing I noticed on the way back is how much better dampened the CS compared to ZCP.. 9k miles so far
armrest no issue
A/C no issue

How many new M3 CS are left on lots? Used prices seem to be in the mid eighties but hard to know as most are Lease take overs so no real sale data. I think 600 of 607 M3 CS were leased vs bought.

A nice M4GTS is $85k so will be curious to see where used M3 CS settle out over the next year.
