There are also additional pros that we benefit from such as aesthetics and more lenient safety requirements.
ah true, hadn't thought of the DOT-requirements here in the US which might cause for a Production to be at a different time - good thought

More or less, yes sir.

The car in black is gorgeous! Enjoy it in a good health!

This spec IMO will have a great value retention in the long run.

May as well install a set of M performance lowering spring (currently meant for M3/4 but it fits M2CS anyway as EDC is the same). I'd also do the carbon fender as the final touch. Although the car is already in perfection as is!

Wouldn't such springs be calibrated to the M3's or M4's weight? How about a part number? Would that be too much to ask?

they are hight ajustable so they will fit but they are not homologated by bmw for the m2 and probably voiding guarantee on kinematics

Lovely spec, this needs to be on the front page. I've really warmed up to the gold wheels, they work so well on a black M2CS.

one thing that this makes me think of though, is that is there something you can buy to protect the lip? I would scrape that lip up so fast, lol.

I actually took the car straight to a protective film dealer for its first outing. They applied the XPel ultimate plus product which in theory is supposed to be self healing. In addition the the whole front, hood, fenders, windshield posts and first part of the roof, they applied it to the bottom of the front spoiler lipp. I'll let you know eventually how much protection this film offers from scrapes however I am at ease now that I know that the car is somewhat protected from nicks, scrapes and scratches. The pictures were taken after the film was applied.

I guess it is just a matter of time before they get approved and released for the M2 CS I guess. I've waited for two whole years for this special car. I might just manage to wait a few additional months for the M Perfomance catalog.
