Unless it's just a bunch of MP parts and an ECU tuned engine. Somehow though I don't think that will be the case for such an important release.

The F87 CS is a part bin well put together car. From the surface, it may be "several years" between it's first seen or planned and out.
There is a schedule for everything, and the necessary tests are only performed when it's due. The car is out when timing is right, not when it's ready as possibly soonest.
95% or more of the R&D is already done when the base car is done.
The G82 CSL R&D and validation can be done in a few months or even weeks if necessary. The year of 2022 fits as a launch time, given the G8X product pipeline.
