Introducing the First-Ever BMW M5 CS!

Jakerx · 01-28-2021, 08:52 AM

Hood is awesome. Power bump is cool.

Nurburging logo on the seats is dumb (so is the interior color combo). Looks like what a hot wheels car would look like on the inside. However, the seats themselves are cool.

Bronze pieces for the exterior is ugly in my opinion.

Overall, exactly what I expected for a money grab. Wish I could buy that hood though.

Just saw her wow!!

Hood is the best piece of the car and what makes it that much different IMO. I think the bucket back seats are the biggest downfall for this car!

I'm surprised by how many are complaining about the loss of the 5th seat. Are there just a lot of people with three small(ish) children?

Isn’t that the supposed weight of the new AWD M3/4?

Not discounting what you’re saying, just that I thought this thing was in a whole different area code for weight.

I’m also not suggesting this car cannot be tracked. I’m just saying that there’s so many other cars I would expect to see double duty before this one. I’m sure it’s insanely fast in a straight line - but I am not convinced it would be fun or effective in the corners....

Having previously owned an F90, it is a very effective tool for corners. Feels like it has almost limitless grip, very controllable and shrinks around you at speed.

That is just my personal experience, but as a counter point I also have a Honda Civic Type R that I owned at the same time so I could directly compare it to a light/quick car. The main issue I had with my M5 was that the limits were too high and that getting the feeling of going quickly required ludicrous speeds that were unreasonable on the street.

If they had been serious, they had dropped xdrive. Manual transmission option would have been brave.

2 backseats are beautiful and fit me and my 3 kids - after my divorce years back. Hurrayy🤗. But 180K euros is a lot.... M5C's are coming down at 90k low mileage. Donington Grey metallic and money left for the wheels from this CS is definitely an option. But those rearseats

ABenLauda · 01-28-2021, 03:09 PM

IMO, the gold accents are nice, but not with this green. Rear bucket seats just look weird. N'ring embroidery on the headrest is a bit much for this car. (did they ever do a lap time attempt for the records with this car?)

The price difference between the US and Europe are crazy. 180k euro is...oof

Lots of high-res in person photos here: Real life photos of the new 2021 BMW M5 CS super sedan

AHall · 01-28-2021, 07:20 PM

Those real life pictures show the car as a more dull green. I think the Brands Hatch Grey will be nice, but I am not sure how it will work with the bronze wheels.

I was thinking I may have preferred the CS to the Competition, but I now believe the Competition is definitely more suitable for me. I want more luxury with performance as opposed to performance with luxury.

I hope the performance is absolutely stellar!!

110% my friend. I'll take my heated steering wheel and massaging seats over the monstrosity that is the CS interior any day. I'm also glad I got the night vision with my 2020.

windtendo · 01-28-2021, 07:56 PM

I wouldn’t sacrifice my B&W audio, nor the fold down rear seat. Those are just non-negotiables once you’ve used them.

uniqueMR · 01-28-2021, 08:33 PM

Wow but the price !!

kerkiraios00 · 01-28-2021, 09:22 PM

Love this car man I'd consider selling my F80 for this but that price is crazy..

I need to stop looking at this forum, it starts to grind on me that when finally a seemingly perfect M car for me is once again available it’s out of my budget

KevinM · 01-28-2021, 10:34 PM

I've owned my E39 M5 since 2004. My M5 love died a bit with subsequent generations. However, I'd pay $143,000 for a manual F90 M5 CS. I really would, although I would sell my M2C and possibly my Z4M C to help finance it (not my E39!).

Well, a guy can dream anyway.

trey30333 · 01-29-2021, 12:03 AM

I told my dealer months ago to get me one of these cars.

Where is the forward Active Cruise radar?

Without Active Cruise.. that is an absolute deal breaker.

Another video specifically said no Comfort Access (remember the F82 CS-no Comfort Access but WITH the rear sunshade WTF LOL) And no center storage console or 4 zone climate control (though the pictures in this thread do show rear climate controls)

There's no adaptive cruise control available (it's a track-focused driver's car after all, and they deleted most of the driver assist stuff), but comfort access seems standard (at least in Germany)

Yeah, no comfort access on my '18 M3CS either. All for the sake of weight savings I guess. 😂

Honestly, I miss having it, but that won't stop me from getting the M5CS.

I dare to guess that the majority including myself that favor the M5CS over the M5C do not prioritize ultimate comfort with things as massage seats, driver aids, parking aids and comfort access. If that’s what you are looking for stay with M5C. The CS is IMO for those that are looking for a sharper handling and more special car understanding that there are some minor(to me) comfort trade-offs.
