Power from a blown motor is so easy. I bumped my GTR by a few pipes and a map by 120bhp. Cost like nothing. Door cards, E92 GTS had them also, dash /console etc simple to do nowadays.Originally posted by Clubber View PostYou would be right in the case of the E92 GTS but I believe the M4 GTS is much more bespoke car than the E92 version. Much like the CSL. Not to mention the giant power hike from the stock M4.
There are many CSL touches here and there, like being offered in sb and grey, Alcantara seats, dash and consoles, bespoke door cards etc...
P.S. Love the M color details on the door pulls and seat belts...
Look at the aero etc. Cheap exercise. Compare that to the 458 speciale. Now that is a proper engineering exercise.
///M is not what it use to be. Its loosing its touch big time, but its not a bad product. Just the competition is all over it and some even exceed it by order and magnitude.

Just had call from Dealer, the first 30 were snapped up within minutes.
I placed deposit c.a. 10.00am, and didn't make the list.:bigcry:
Somehow I think it was all done beforehand, as dealer only got info that morning. Seeing as PH had published all the info seems to confirm this.
They are waiting to see if anyone drops out, slim chance!:banghead:
BMW said to the dealer they could have sold 90, not sure why they didn't, the limited numbers with all the cost of that development must make it difficult to break even.

Interesting.
I left a £1,000 deposit with my local dealer for an M2 CSL/GTS months back. Nr 2 on their list. No idea about the UK list. I'd be hopeful of bagging one of those if they do actually release one.
Didn't get any call about the M4 variant, although to be fair I didn't really seek one anyway, when I heard their starting price...
Has their been any news about the M2 version anyone?
:beer:

Also offer different wheels..m
Obviously BMW thinks they won't sell as many if it weren't limited..and i agree. If it were availiable in the thousands alot of people wouldn't buy it because it won't be a collectors item anymore.
It's sad to see that so many special versions are so limited that they end up being stowed away rather than being used the way they are intended to be.
Same thing with the CSL's in germany, with the current prices its hard to justify driving it.

My thoughts exactly just put better into words :hahaha:Originally posted by Yanto View PostI pray daily that the arse falls out of this ridiculous market. I want to see 25-30k Csl, 50k gt3, 70k rs again and hope these cars fall into hands of drivers rather than polishers and speculators.
Sad state of affairs right now.

Both of my M cars have appreciated significantly since I bought them especially the E30 but I couldn't care less. I still drive them as I like whenever I like. Road, Track, Dirt, Rain... The only time I look at the odometer is to keep track of the service intervals...
I didn't buy Apple stocks, I bought great cars and they are only great when driven and driven properly...
P.S. Cleaning and Polishing a dirty used car gives me more satisfaction than dusting off a clean one
