Damn, I got a good deal around may due to my special circumstances. I checked and it was roughly 25% off the list price.

Maybe I should have waited a year to get a CS for that price off haha

For an M2 CS, a 10% discount ain't impossible.

I'd wager in the first 6 months or so in the US it will be impossible... if for some reason allocations don't sell out right away, then maybe that will become true. From what I can tell everything in my area is sold out. I've talked to three dealerships in about a 200 mile radius and there are 2-3 people on waitlist (and they turned away others in some cases) for each allocation expected at this point. Not any negotiating happening in that environment.

That is definitely true for the base and S models - I think I read somewhere once that the average "lot" car has ~20K in options on top of the base price, which definitely moves the price needle quickly.

I do think it's less true on the GTS models - because those come with more options as standard, there are less "obvious" things to add. The new 718 GTS 4.0 will probably start around ~88-90K...I think the options I would add get it into the 95K range...compare that to an M2CS with DCT at 88K....well, which would you rather have, for a relatively small price delta?

I love the S55 and have had many BMWs, but you can't even buy a new BMW with a naturally aspirated motor anymore. The 718 GTS 4.0 is a game changer, because it shows Porsche is dedicated to providing the enthusiast with options below the GT4 / Spyder. I will definitely be looking to pick one of those up in the next 4-5 years (CPO of course).

I need an automatic, which is not available on the 718 Cayman GTS 4.0. Plus the M2 CS has more power and torque.

It will come - after it shows up in 2021 for the GT4 and Spyder.

I suspect the Cayman GTS will be a regular production vehicle, so a lot easier to get an allocation than an M2 CS or Cayman GT4.

Time will tell how the demand is for the CS. All of the sporty 2 series starting with the M235i then the M2 and then on to the M2 Competition were all launched with great fan fair and proceeded to have a short supply for at least 6 months. Many dealers were demanding prices over MSRP only to offer discounts later on. Now the CS is launched.... we'll see what happens.

You're correct, all initially 2 series model lineage all had a initial high demand, when they were now introduce to the market.

The M235i, in early 2014, was marked-up because as I was told by my dealer; it's a "niche" model..

And the M2, I remember I was blowed away by it's $51,700 base price, which was the BMW bargain of the decade IMO but the dealer had only one, on the showroom floor, with a few cosmetic bits, proudly adorning a $65,000 price tag.. As if

I suspect the M2 CS will sell out for sticker because of the limited units. There are a lot of people that believe that this model would recreate the supple/demand jackpot, like what happen with the 1M.

Who knows, maybe it will.. :

I doubt the dealer's will discount the CS much, if any, when there is only 500 available, in the whole country of 325 million people.

To be honest, I like it and although it a lavish expense, if I could of swing it, I would throw my hat in the ring, to get me one.

Totally agree. I wanted one because of the adaptive shocks, the Misano Blue, and the limited number. The price was somewhat irrelevant as it cost pretty much the same as everything else I was looking at - but actually had the potential for lower running costs long term for track etc than other options. Car buying is emotional to varying degrees depending on the buyer. Probably 50% emotional for me on this purchase, not much rational way to explain those choices!

Been offered 12% but turned it down anyway because of the price and the even harsher difference to the M2C (almost 29 % off of net price for diplomats).

The delta for the two is at roughly 33k Euros which I just can't ignore. That's a shitload of money for a car that has 40 hp more and some nice upgrades.

Nevertheless, both are awesome cars of the sort that we will dearly miss in the years to come - that I am sure of.

I doubt the US is going to see up front discounts, but I think the delta is a bit smaller when doing the money conversion.

Limited production and a manual. This car will not have a problem selling in the US. Not sure about other countries.

When some photos come out of it in HS and White with the CF roof and the hood getting more presence against a lighter color in outdoor lighting, people will appreciate the car more, not to mention driving reviews, etc.... this limited number will easily be absorbed.

One thing about all the 2 series cars, the cars they compete against are far more expensive so they always look like a bargain when cross-shopping. Hopefully the M2cs is a home run and is the tide that lifts all 2 series boats. It has been a great enthusiast platform, IMO.

Though I can be diplomatic, I'm no diplomat and merely inquired as Joe Public:
M2 CS: 10% discount | M2C: 23% discount | Price delta (discounts included): approx. €33K
Or to quote my favorite currency: an obscene amount of fuel tanks for spirited mountain drives.

Find me in the mountains this Spring with my 2020 M2C.

Right, so $36kUS in that conversion vs. 24k US delta (€21k) using a discounted M2C price of $59k. Still a lot, but I see why others might walk away.

I think people are getting the M2C for 10% off in some US locals. That would be a base price if $53,100. before tax and license. So that would be about a $30k Delta.

For your information guys... I am getting offered M2 CS cars left, right and center since the end of last week. I did some digging and I heard that BMW is planning to make more than 2200 pieces of the CS.

Dealers in certain BMW M specific countries have asked the headquarters to produce more, because they think they can sell more. It is unknown what this means for the total amounts and specific countries.

It is peculiar that the dealers whom are offering me the cars are all offering me April/May production slots, which if you are planning to make more is a rather intriguing thing.

Interesting development... If you missed out at your dealer, make sure to run back and see what they say. You might be able to pick one up, with discount even!!! No premiums here in Europe, but decent double digit discounts for the M2 CS.

This is something I did not expect. I was really thinking that they had a hard time getting rid of them, because of the hefty price tag. Time will tell what the real reason is, but it is interesting to see that out of nothing slots and cars are being offered.

Oh and for your information, I won't get one myself. My M2C is getting new brakes next month and some other things done. In a few months time, mine has all the CS parts I fancy, is lighter, handles better and offers better performance.
