I think that price for the M4 CS would come as a pleasant surprise to a lot of people. It seems the consensus is generally over $100k for that car based on how much it is known to command over the M4 in other markets.
The M3 CS is going to be particularly interesting. How much discount do you give for the lack of OLED lights? Plus, it misses out on the Alcantara seats which makes the whole thing look less the business and somewhat less cohesive to me. With that in mind, as a customer, I’d want to see an appreciably lower price. On the other hand, if you lower it to much, what message do you send to the potential M4 CS buyer? This is the potential conflict I pointed out when talking about this car in the past. Now, the winning play might be the limited edition aspect they have gone with. The M3 CS is going to be more rare and produced only for a short time compared to the M4 CS, so they probably figure they can re-up the asking price despite the missing content. Indeed, someone posted UK prices earlier and it seems they are only £3K apart. BTW, there’s a pricing speculation thread here: http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1406613 And I’ll probably move these posts there. |

So wait, the majority of people on the forum bitch about the cost of an M3 once the price roughly crosses $80k. Now, all of a sudden a well optioned M3 with "CS" added is a good value at $95k? What's being passed around cause I want some!
How many of you even have an $90k build now?

Single zone HVAC vs dual zone means less ducting and heat exchangers for less weight. I rarely use the "dual zone" capability in my car anyhow and reading on this forum, many complain of not having a "synch" button for the two zones.

Funny you say that. . I had just mentioned above that I actually like the M4 CS seats more; the leather M3 CS seats seem just a bit out of place. But, yes, the fact that the M3 has the real door handles instead of the somewhat less convincing straps is a definite win.

The E46 M3 CS was a BMW UK only product for the local market and not a BMW corporate product.

I was trying to work though that earlier too. Seems like no changes, but they specifically mention it has been enhanced.
Does the M4 CS have any suspension or chassis changes compared to the Competition Package? |

ive seen better modded cars on bimmerpost than this M3 CS.
and hell, pretty much all of these parts are available to purchase on iND (including steering wheel and interior bits minus the subpar HVAC controls) and other vendors for the major stuff (CF hood, wheels, etc). sorry, but im not impressed. at all.

Since the M3CS comes with PSS standard, I am not sure if or how the EDC calibration was changed.
