Yep - I think you're right, that the CS will end up being awesome. Just the price that's hard to come to grips with...I am leaning towards getting something else at this point, unless there's a pleasant surprise on the US pricing front.
That's the main point:
  • I trust that reviews will confirm over and over again that the M2 CS is definitely a great car, probably one of the best BMW M cars of recent times;
  • but the elephant in the room is the quoted price: an M-DCT M2 CS in BSM/HS/MB officially sets you back about €101.5K over here; and that's pretty ambitious for this Über 2 Series car; price-wise, it's punching above its weight; as I commented before, there is IMHO a 'mismatch' between the car and the price-tag; M2 CS: the good, the bad and the ugly: design/looks, weight and price.
