Fenders look the same to me. Also, it uses even the same tire sizes as confirmed in earlier leaks of the white CS mule (245 front/265 rear but Cup 2s instead of PSS).

That said, I don't believe it's really track focused. I think it's just throw CF parts on it, remove a few quality of life features to save 15 pounds, bump HP by 10 via software, add an exclusive color, and charge 40% more. Maybe you get the magnesium oil pan. If they ONLY gave it the MT it would probably sell better to tell you the truth, making it more "special" |

It is possible the Cayman 6 that we discussed early in this thread may be a US/Canada only car. This could be due to manual transmission take rate and the lack of Particulate Filter, so the car in the NA market could be made with a different exhaust entirely. BMW may want to make sure a 718 6 Cylinder US/Canada only car, does not take people into the Porsche eco system. |

I was hoping for it to be more "special" but I was also hoping for 2020, not 2019. 2020 I'll be able to swing buying it, but not this year. I want a true CSL, with carbon fibre everything, more power, and DCT (not sure if I 100% want this since it's a track toy). A true modern day E46 CSL. The biggest disappointment is the timing though. Hopefully there is a CSL still in the cards for 2020. |

Merely expressing my disappointment that if it comes out a year earlier than I was expecting, then I probably won't be able to enjoy it unless it's announced this year and delivered next year. |

sounds like a plan haha. You're a tougher man than I am for staying there; not having a decent track was bad enough let alone constantly below -30, bad crime and the intolerant WPS for car mods. Lived many places in Canada and that one tops the worst.

This release projection has been in these forums for the past 8+ months... We all expected a CS this year at exactly this time

Most years I don't have to put away my M4 until mid-November, and it's out by April, so 4 1/2 months. This year will probably be end of April. We do have a decent track about an hour north of the city, nothing like in the southern US, or Europe, but decent nonetheless. There's crime in every city and definitely areas to avoid. WPS feel that all of the crime in the city has been solved and harass motorists instead. I lived in Minnesota for 4 years during Grad School. I'm very happy to be back. |
