Really? The ZCP seem to be more of an upgrade from base than the CS. Other than 10hp and cosmetic what makes the CS special? Tires?
The M2CS seems much more interesting with mystery engine and more of an upgrade since no zcp package. |

Also, haven't seen test mules of the M2 CS for a while now. If they were still testing, I thought we would've seen a lot more of the test mules by now. |

BMW may not want to have a bunch of badass M2 test mules running around right before people can order the expensive M4 CS.
Tweaking any final aero, and suspension adjustments won't take that long. How early was the M4 GTS spied before official release? |

Just as the standard M4 is given further improvement with the Competition Packet and the M4 GTS receiving split deciding complex technology over the latter. Then the M4 CS has to offer some appreciative level to stand out further. As it is said its a GTS without the complexity. So it will showcase its own formidable talent. The M2 CS will offer the more radical genetics but the standard M2 is not just a good car. It's a phenomenal car.

Well the new M5 begins a new era for BMW M. Which it all begins next week.
The CS cars offer more exclusivity to the more enthused customer. The first X3M and X4M respond to the further requirements of customers especially in the US. The next generation of Coupe models beginning with the M8 again will be offered with staged further development and creativity. With the aim to provide a razors edge between Motorsport and road going attributes.

Hmm...not too inspiring at this stage...frankly now I am now more eager for news on the next GT4 and Spyder as they will have a 6MT
No wonder prices on the 1M had appreciated in the last few months Whoever thought of the no 6MT option on the CS range basically handed free money to Porsche |

I wonder if the plan is to remove the different performance packages all together, and replace them with a model line. No more ZCP. By reducing the total number of available higher performance cars. The new models become artificially more special. They won't be limited, but you may not get one the year you want one.
