i like the 2018 lci because of the sound of n55, mineral grey, manual trans. Hoping that the CS is manual and sounds better than current S55. will have to wait and see on the colors...none of the ones listed are making me feel like i need to have 'em. im planning on tuning the M2 to +400hp so i guess the CS will have to be pretty special. i would possibly pay 12-15k over base M2.

speaking of test mules .. we just did see that a fleet was spotted hot weather testing in the desert... it appeared to be black.. but that's nothing a wrap and some camo can't cover. |

Is it possible to order a custom color on the CS? If Hockemheim Silver isn't good enough, I'll gladly do a custom paint order with the orange interior stitching. Mmmm just thinking about the orange interior stitching with mineral grey or Hockemheim Silver

It's funny, because the average person in the P dealership just doesn't blink when those types of numbers are tossed around...I had to keep myself from falling over.

Interesting on the perforated Dakota. Has this been deployed before, most BMW seats with ventilation and perforations have been Nappa/Merino I think??

Dakota is like rhino scrotum - be amazed if they can perforate that and make it look good!
Surely we want alcantara buckets? S |

The VIN specs indicated that - as expected - the M2 CS test mule / pre-production car has indeed been built at the BMW Leipzig factory.

You would think if this factory has constraints on capacity they would get say Alpina to custom paint and put a decent interior in it. What is currently proposed appears to reflect a lack of ability to make a really special car.

Do you think that the M2 CS will get the S55 with the steel driveshafts or the CF driveshafts ??.
Apparently all M3/M4 barring the M4 CS and GTS will be switching from CF driveshafts to Steel due to the requirement to insert an emission related device in the space. |

Steel. Zero chance for CF now I'd think with the F8X back track. Though hmm it stays in the M4GTS so maybe it becomes an GTS trademark.
