The CS trim level on the G80 and new M5 isnt logical to me on an otherwise large blistering fast luxo cruiser. Stick with the competition package and call it a day.

Logically I agree but nothing about these car or any other 500hp street car is logical. It's not what owning these are about, it's about driving pleasure. Some prefer MT. I don't think they'll get it in the CS.

Yes 500hp you are correct and it is a pleasure to run the interstate like a king. Take what ever lane, opening or space you want when you want it. Even if it's an automatic it's still good to be the King.
Maybe OP is right and the G80 CS should actually be a 6MT stripped out lightweight. Unless of course BMWNA decides it needs minvan window shades like they did on the F80CS. SMH
