That sucks big time. Ugh. It's funny that the law (apparently) dictates what color the front DRLs must be - E6x/9x had yellow - but they don't say the rear lights must be on in DRL mode... which they should be on because people also drive behind cars, you know. Had that coded on my car immediately.

While I still don't get the point of this car, it will sell like hotcakes.
Pay more for an M5 to get less use out of it lol |

Less use? Why? Just because it only has room for 4 people instead of 5?

So this is available in non-limited number to everyone in the world but the U.S. only gets about 400

If they are only making the car for 1 year then they will eventually have to cap production. With the semiconductor shortage I can't imagine how they would balance it all.

I feel like this is a 2022 model year, but actually only being built during the 2021 production schedule. The reason i say this, US dealers seem to know already how many allocations they are getting and that they are leaning toward the end of normal 2021 production schedule (ie july-september). EU cars are already being built, but when does this production year end? |

Typically, dealerships are provided with their next month's allocations around the 5th of each month. For the M5CS, all the dealerships were given their full allocations at once. The dealership that I use got 2 production slots. Their first allocation, which I took, is scheduled to start production in July and their second slot is scheduled for November. I guess it is possible for BMW to have more allocations in early 2022, but I doubt it.

And no cup holders, no folding down rear seats, no guided cruise control, and of course no Bowers & Wi. audio for fine listening. LOL.

Wait a sec, no cup holders up front? Really? How did I miss that one?!? Even my M3CS has front cup holders.

i built my own m5cs. i ordered an m5 comp with no options. only CCB's and forged wheels.
im not a fan of the pewter accents and the red calipers on CCB's is offputting bc all the fake 5 series M models have red calipers. that fact alone made the ccb mandatory for me , i dislike the dilution of the M mark a lot |
