I agree, there is no way a CS would have a sunroof?

the rear calipers really don't match the fronts. Fronts look to be the CCB calipers...nothing adds up on this car. Clearly not the CS...

Hopefully this CS sets itself apart a bit more than being a parts bin car. Can't wait.

Agree. F80 CS is beautifully styled. It will be hard to beat.

Curious if this is coming out early in model run and whether it gets AWD.

6MT would be a big plus.
Rear brakes are purely decorative anyway.

Love the seats - look like proper race/super car seats.

Is it just me, or does the exterior seem a bit conservative? I am missing some of the muscular/filled out look of previous M3s - just don't seem to see the flared fenders etc.

No, I doubt the CS will have a sunroof but even if they add it as an option, the hood doesn't look aggressive enough for a CS.

Spy shots of a CS when we still haven't seen the base model yet?

BMW must be getting desperate for attention

Hopefully bmw will get enough allocations moving early enough that the markups won't last much longer than the "gotta have first" wave of preorders and pricing settles after they start showing up on dealer lots.

I wonder if they redesigned the wheel/caliper/rock gouging issue with the CCBs and 19” wheels :/

Seats look fantastic...that's about it. Can't wait for this vehicle to actually break cover. We may end up really liking it lol.

I have a sunroof on my F80.

That said; if you're getting a CS why the hell would you get a CS with a sunroof. Why??????

It's like a sports suspension on a lexsus ES 350; does not make sense.

But way more than 10% of us CS owners DO track. In fact, it's close to 15%! I do..

Why? Same reasons Fezza make the Pista Spyder ( 200+ lbs heavier than the roofed Pista ). Some people want the open air option even it’s detrimental to the focus of the rest of cars purpose. Does it make sense? Not really but people like what they like.

That said there will not be a sunroof on a CS ever, guaranteed. The car in the thread looks like a real Frankenstein job.

Did they put the front tires on the back? Huge stretch on those rear tires.

Okay then maybe no sunroof on the GTS ��

I have sunroof and 6 speed which is blasphemous but some M3 owners.


RIP Kobe Bryant

I think Kobe did something custom to a lambo back in the day so I get it.

Just does not make sense when their are two other M3 with sunroof option.

Me too, 6MT and sunroof. Did the research before buying and the weight penalty is ~40lbs vs the CF roof if I recall right and everyone who had own both versions of the E9X said it can’t be felt and makes no significant difference on the track and it is a dual purpose car after all

You think so? that good? I think the 763M (orbit grey) takes the crown.
