Edit: bmw_m_collector ran 6.78 in 100-200 test with a vmax of 311 (193mph). Let's also not dismiss the 7:15 ring time.

Not a true comparison to be fair, as there wasn't a factory time for the M5. The M4 GTS factory time was 9 seconds quicker than Sport Auto's.

Great video!
All of you who missed out on the CSL, not to worry...the M3 CS will be out soon and im sure it will be as close to this..oh yea and it will have yellow Halo's and titanium exhaust. I had an allocation for the CSL for msrp and gave it away practically because i dont see the hype, the appeal about a 3600lb $150k car. M3 CS...practical, lighter than the offered M3 and M5, cheaper than CSL....checks off many boxes. Oh yea and M2 soon to be released from its humble abode. Patience |

Yeah turned out it was "much ado about nothing". Another M classic and possibly one of the best RWD cars of all time.

My money is on the 4 RS, the car we dared Porsche to build.
This is the golden era of cars for sure and I'm glad I get to buy them all new.

I truly miss the etiquette of driving "The Autobahn". My days at Hahn Air Base were bliss!
The Aero becomes effective at those speeds. I love it! Great video! Thank you for sharing!

The 4RS is probably going to be great like it's predecessors and that might be it's downfall. We know Porsche is going to bring it with all their GT cars, they always do but BMW is written off every car they release so it's actually more impressive that BMW continues to amaze with their CS cars and so far looks like the CSL is no exception.

Many people would argue this setup is closer to what people use to expect of a standard ///M car and that the standard ones are just too soft. Bottom line, different strokes for different folks—-don't ever assume otherwise. Cheers, e46e92

This car doesn't seem to be unnecessarily stiff. But let's wait for more reviews. I don't suspect the CS will be a better car than this, and will live under the shadow of the M5 CS (a car with AWD, more power and similar weight). |

I believe the Germans spend quite some time to get a driver license, driving, videos, courses on driving fast and proper lane driving.
In the U.S. the procedure to get a driver license is: Drive around the block and parallel park. Lane discipline in America I don't think so. |

I see soccer moms do this all the time with one hand on a cell phone one on a starbucks and one eye glaring at their kids in the back as their minivan flies past me. Think of the driver training they must have undertaken...oh wait.
