BMW M5 CS Has Begun Testing?
BIMMERPOST NEWS BMW M5 CS Has Begun Testing? This M5 was just spied on the Nurburgring and coming in/out of the M Test Center at the Nurburgring. Does it show the beginning of testing and development of the BMW M5 CS model? If so, this variant would follow in the vain of the already released BMW M3 CS and M4 CS. It wears the M Performance Pro Spoiler and also features M Carbon Ceramic brakes, standard on the M3 CS and M4 CS. An eventual M5 CS would feature more aero parts (mostly M Performance Parts) than seen on this potential early prototype, unique CS wheels, and different (non-rolled) exhaust tips.

Batten down for the price if it's similar to M3/4 premium Beast though

Hmm...I'm not so sure that an M5 CS is necessary unless they plan to introduce some serious improvements.
BMW already has the M5 (competes with E63) and M5 Competition (competes with E63 S). With the addition of the M5 CS, BMW is really just splitting hairs now. I do like the split-fin spoiler though.

The M Performance PRO Spoiler looks good on it!
Maybe they are testing it to make sure the front splitters are not needed with the trunk spoiler.

Is there a dead body in the trunk or is that thing slammed?

BMW, please stop with all this CS BS. Make a real track focused sports car to compete with the AMG GT-R and the 911 GT3.
