Maybe that means that the M2C is just so good out of the box that all BMW could do to improve it was a mild flash, an MP suspension and go nuts with CF?

I just meant that I feel that BMW did more change work to the CSL than the CS-- hence the longer list of different parts M3/CSL v. M2C/CS.

I agree. I assume it's not worth the development cost at time to do a CSL. Also they may want the next CSL to be on the m3/m4 platform because it's more the flagship model. The m2 is the right size though.
