All they have to do is place a MARKET ADJUSTMENT tag on it bigger than the wallet of ' guy that thinks he is #1 '. Or the owner will purchase it... or any number of things. The key here is.. unless you know the people at the dealership and how they do business .. it's a crapshoot. |

Can anyone look at all the test mule videos and photos that we have so far and venture a guess on the tires that are being used. The cup tires on the M4 CS seem to look a little different from the ones we've seen in all the videos and photos.
Also in the 1:51 video, the car was sliding pretty badly in the wet which could mean that they are using some sort of summer tire. |

This is exactly the timeline for the 1M. That wasn't fully revealed until late December 2010 with teasers from September 2010 IIRC. Appeared at the Detroit auto show in January 2011. |

Those are no Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.
Maybe Michelin Pilot Sport 3 ?

I walked along hatzenbachstrasse and was right next to it. Didn't notice much really, the covers / camo was doing its job. Couldn't see if it was manual or auto but from the gear changes on the videos I think it's DCT. |

I just think that the whole front bumper is being camouflaged since that part might be changing with bigger air intakes or something and maybe it's standard procedure to camouflage the whole part and not just the portion that is changing. Also, the M2 LCI had the same camo in it's spyshots. We all know that nothing changed on that car. It could be the same with the CS as well. Everyone's anticipating a big change and BMW just gives us the exact same bumper as on the base M2. That will be a surprise. Last edited by Gatte; 09-05-2017 at 12:52 PM.. |

It has been confirmed in Summer 2016 that "an M2 model is testing a new aerodynamic aid similar to this". So, if the M2 CS is supposed to get a bolted-on or integrated 'splitter' (front lip à la BMW GT6 Vision Concept) for aerodynamics and design reasons... ...then maybe these four 'warts' (neither available, nor necessary, for the flat-nosed base M2) could also be considered worthwhile for some visual assistance when parking the car (worth hiding under camouflage for the moment) ? For the record: the BMW GT6 Vision Concept:

As if a base M2 was kicked 'a fat lip' (pun intended).
To my eyes, this whole chunky plastic camouflage construction is just a mask bolted on the front end to hide a splitter / front lip (and maybe also front PDC). Otherwise said: by bolting-on that mask, the splitter is less obvious.

I think the integrated splitter makes sense. It's the only area on the front that looks to be changing besides air inlets, and goes along with Scott26 comment about less complexity.
Now just add the ducktail, and call it a day. Edit:. An integrated splitter would also separate it as slightly "cheaper" when compared to m4 CS since it wouldn't be CF. Last edited by medphysdave; 09-05-2017 at 02:13 PM.. |

Seats got covers = this test mule likely features different seats than those of the base M2.
