That is some machine! Hopefully in a couple of years I can buy one for a decent price!

That is one awesome machine. There's not a single thing I'd change to that spec. Goes to show that BMW still has the capability to design great ///M cars.

4 bucket seats? Did the designers miss the brief? Personally the M5 for me is a powerful, fast, understated everyday saloon - making it less practical for the shock factor seems to be a step backwards IMHO. Perhaps CS now means they can do "Crazy Stuff"?

What a beast. Impressive weight savings.
However, the color scheme is atrocious. Green exterior, chrome, red interior trim, gold wheels, yellow lights. Hurts the eyes.

Then, the 798M wheels are also optional on the M5competition, so you can factor the full 51lb. Carbon exterior package does not save weight, it adds weight with the added front splitter and larger gurney flap. And having stripped a few cars myself, I can tell that 14kg is A LOT of sound deadening, I seriously doubt it is that much. Don't get me wrong, I love the concept of the CS and praise BMW for doing it, but there's more marketing in that 230lb figure than there is engineering.

Since weight is such an issue here. Are you guys 5’3” @ 135 lbs? Most drivers will add 200 lbs, with their “M” driving watch, cell phone, drinks, AARP card, meds, M caps, radar detectors, leather wallet, weapon, Red Bull and other items. Why are some clinging to this not enough weight loss “false flag.”

I quite like it and the idea behind it. I am a little confused on the daytime running lights though, are they supposed to be white or yellow? Yellow would be a welcome sight in my opinion in a sea of bright white LEDs currently on the roads.
