![]() ![]() Featured on BIMMERPOST.com A very special limited edition M4 will be produced for just a few months starting 11/22. It will be mostly configured like the CSL but with manual transmission, several options (comfort access, parking sensors, electric seats) deleted, and the forged wheels off G81. I don't know the exact model designation. |

According to my dealer, that one is the 50 Jahre celebration model NOT the CSL

They probably have a bunch of extra MT lying around and decided to repurpose them into another tacky special edition model. Jahre, heritage edition, all the same tasteless junk. Go with a comp model or all out CSL

They're not taking deposits for a car per se, but some may be willing to take your money to hold your spot in line with the assumption they'll be getting or at least able to get an allocation. It's all really just asking for someone to whine and complain, so many dealers won't do it, will only do it for loyal customers (without a deposit if loyal enough), etc. If you do put money on the idea of something existing... just make sure you get it in writing and that it's fully refundable.

It's hard to fathom how BMW claims a 6MT is not offered with the Competition package because the Getrag unit can't handle the extra torque, but then they'll magically make it work (technically and financially) for a super-low volume special edition... unless that special edition does not in fact make CSL-level power.

![]() Jokes aside they've certainly earned that cynicism from past 'special models' but it does sound like there could be some meaningful changes to hardware and focus this time around. Looking forward to seeing where they take this. Might very well be an 'all out CSL' with 6MT.

I know what this could be called. How about calling it a M4 Sport Evo.

This is 2021, people need to stop dreaming that a major German car manufacturer will make a new manual transmission for a car built in super low production numbers. Anyone thinking that seriously could happen, you need to have your head examined. |

I believe the trademark filed is for "50 JAHRE BMW M"
They could just add the model designation behind it on whatever special model(s) they want The M3 and M5 had celebratory models for their 30 year anniversaries, but 2022 being the 50 year anniversary for BMW M GmbH, i think any model could get the designation |
