And I bet the CS will command a big premium the way it is already planned for production.

I'd be disappointed if this is just carbon fiber dressing. |

Let's wait and see the press on the car. So far I am not impressed, but I really want to see how BMW pulls this off.

Well, they are both twin turbo 4wd, and designed for great performance. The fact the M5 can seat 4 and keep up somewhat is impressive. Obviously the Porsche is all about handling too, and the M5 cant compete here.

WAS looking forward to this car. With the aforementioned information this car makes zero sense. 8 more hp, same fp and a little less weight none of which will make any difference than what I have 21m5 comp. Could care less about any track numbers. This is not and will never be a real track car. Not sure why it’s even talked about. A 4000 pound 4dr sedan lol.
Anyway, very disappointed with what I’m hearing, but I do love my new one. |

Just had a mail from my dealer, stating the M5CS "will be the fastest BMW ever made", [probably production model] and will be 70kgs lighter than the Competition model.

The 150 pounds isn’t going to make a difference. If the HP number is correct 8 more HP isn’t going to make a difference so we’ll have to wait and see what your dealer means by the fastest. |

I suspect the main purpose for this car is marketing. To own the Nordschleife record for production sedans. I wonder if BMW ran into an unexpected obstacle to guarantee this goal when the 2021 Panny recorded a 7:29 and that this has caused some delays?

Ya that's the problem when there are multiple threads on the same topic.
