BMW is a little coy about the chassis changes over the already brilliant Competition model, but they do make a big difference on a circuit.

The front axle is far better supported and the way the CS turns in is remarkable for something that is actually a bit too podgy for its own good. Is sharp turn in grounds for buying a car? Does it justify the CS's rather terrifying price tag? Probably not, but this is a very special car and with the new M3 and M4 appearing to have borrowed facial features from a yawning rabbit, it might mark the high point for M cars in this decade. Just make sure that you go for the manual version - it's way more fun.
@Turbomeister @deceptiv.M3 -- Thank you, gentlemen. Very cool.
