Article will be outdated early 2024, as the upcoming M4 CS is rumored to be faster than the M4 CSL due to mXDrive.

As a “track car” it reigns supreme as for the word fast of course Xdrive is faster 0-60 and such but I’m sure the CSL is a better out of the box track car then my M3cs. I totally get what your saying I do but I think it goes deeper. And yes def not a daily as it does literally hurt your body. Happy holidays to all the BMW fanboys and girls 🎅

Every article about a fast car gets outdated, and usually quickly. Automotive engineers never lie about twidling their thumbs. So, I think it's okay that magazines publish their articles, even if they know they will have to write another article in a few months about a new, faster car.

All xdrive G80/G82 are faster 0-60. If you are referring to the official Nurburgring times, that rumor defies logic and expect it will be debunked by BMW soon.

I do find it clever that MT listed "Incompatible with most public roads" as the first con.

M3 CS isn't, why would the M4 CS be faster?

Correct answer. There is no way the M4 CS, which is at most 40lbs lighter and with the same running gear, will be 11secs faster than the M3 CS.
The rumor started because of BMW's "4 cars, 1 day" video which shows a graphic at the end with the M2/M3CS/CSL and a "M Prototype" listed last with the time blurred out. First, you need to assume this is the M4 CS, which is probable but not confirmed. Second, you need to assume the M Proto time is faster only on the basis that it is listed last in the graphic. Logic would dictate there are two plausible outcomes a) this is the M4 CS and they deliberately put it last so as not to reveal the actual position (e.g. faster or slower than the M3 CS). Or b) the M prototype is a completely different mule perhaps with a mild hybrid system or full electric making huge power. Of these, a) seems the most probable. We should know in January.

Cars being fast in todays market has become sorta irrelevant with EV cars and thier stupid speeds that is way too much for the road.
Driving is about the experience, the emotion the car gives you, and puts that smile on your face. How a car looks is also a big factor for many of us. After trading in my 5 series for Tesla model Y performance really embraces what I’ve said above. I love the Tesla for what it is, but my manual G82 with the mods I have is my happy place. |

That pretty much sums up my feelings about it. I love the design of the CSL, but I just wouldn't enjoy an automatic transmission in ANY car. Overall I like BMW's more than anything on the road aside from certain Porsches (...namely the 911 variants).
