Doesn't fully resolve the weak rear arch area of the G82 M4, but overall I really like this.

Only 50 being made though, so straight in to collector's vaults I'm sure.

BMW love a "special edition's" don't they!

To be fair I quite like that. If they smoothed out the arches and it was not so Liberty Walk look, I'd like it even more.

I know I'm getting old !

Not nearly as bad as Porsche though. They milk the 911 special editions to the max.

Whilst this is clearly based on a M4, there is a lot that has been changed from that car. It's more like those Lamborghini special editions where it's an Aventador underneath.

I was more referring to earlier edition cars, that because they had a bit of fluff on the seats belts it was an edition model!

This will be awesome and it is a bit special.

Don't get the appeal with Lambos these days, mostly its just an Audi R8 and QXR in a posh suit on PCP! Merci was the last real Lambo.

Think if I had that money I would opt for the Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio GTA

While the CSL will perform well no doubt, not quite my cup of tea.

Wonder how much they are?

boba-fett · 11-24-2022, 09:36 AM

A little birdie told me £750k. which is well over 1/2 million to much for a 4 series!

when I saw new 3.0CSL I was living in hopes that it looked like the shark nosed original, not this...

I'd prefer a new old 3.0 CSL please, from the days when BMW looked brilliant....

Kinda looks like someone who purchased their first poverty spec 318 then bought every 'M Performance' accessory and sticker they could find on eBay/Facebook. Including the coat and watch.
I'd have those centre lock wheels and the brakes though…

I actually prefer the grilles on this than the current m3/4... it looks more BMW.
