We know bmw will detune those cars to not outperform their more expensive bigger brothers, the f87 cs came literally at a perfect time where there wasn't an m3 on the market so they didn't care.

Exactly. The perfect storm not to be replicated likely anytime soon |
Agree re not being replicated anytime soon. I would say however it will be replicated at the EOP of the G80/G82 when the G87 becomes the last non-electrified, RWD M car standing. It will also be the perfect time for a unfettered G87 CS to be launched with a year or less of clear air before the launch of an electrified M3. I suspect the reviews of a G87 CS will be numbing in their reference to 'the end of an era', 'the last of its kind' .
Probably well deserved however as the G87 CS at that point will literally be the last one standing.
