It's overrated but the steering feedback it gives you is Brilliant.

I was modding my M2C to this anyway, so...

I sort of feel like it's on par with my zcp e46.

The CS isn't over-rated IMO, it's over-priced. But if you have the cash, why not? I certainly would.

Is there a flash that can set a og or comp to the same steering as a CS?

That would be awesome if it were that easy. I'm sure time will tell if that's possible.

Brandt51 · 02-09-2021, 08:34 PM

I don't think it's over rated....and the price compared to the bigger sibling CSs is pretty good too.

It’s over-rated which is why I’m de-badging mine and putting an M240i badge on instead.

I don’t want my neighbors to think I’m foolish with money after all.

I'm getting sick of getting shadowed by M2C drivers on the road that race off while revving out. I loved the M2C and wasn't able to get one at the time as my other car was still relatively new. Over the moon with the CS.

Perhaps if BMW released the CS first like Porsche did with the GT4 coming out before the GTS we'd have far less boring cost comparisons and more people enjoying their F87C without knocking the fact the F87 CS exists?

Lol, What a great post this is.

Also interesting angle on the Porsche comparison.

"The CS is overrated" say the people with an M2C that are adding CS software, CS hood, CS wheels, CS splitter, CS-looking roof, CS spoiler...

mchart · 02-10-2021, 08:23 AM

You see these same threads on the Hellcat forums where OG Hellcat buyers call the Redeye overpriced/overrated because it's only another 90HP over stock.

If you're going to mod a car, mod away. However, there is something to be said having a factory warranty.

M2CS is overrated because CS stands for Can't See (the wood from the forest)
