Not yet. But brace yourself for 2016. The M4 CSL concept won't be the only CSL presented next year. Guess who else.

Well, shit. Looks like we'll be a one car family for about a year.

Tell me if I'm wrong.
Sounds better than the F8x exhaust noise?

I didn't think it sounded all too great but then again I was listening to it through a phone... Hopefully we get to see it without camo sometime around mid fall.

I was just thinking the same.
So i watched the video on my AppleTV with the volume turned up.
Fuck me, it sounded like the F80 should've been, just perfect I6 at high rev.

I'm pretty much convinced that Akrapovič is eager to get their hands on the M2 for taking it to the next level, sound-wise. No need for Active Sound Design.

You're going to make me wait for this car, aren't you?

I hope you're right about the CSL and I hope it's more than just a carbon fibre roof and lightweight wheels.
We need other lightweight components and a S55-like motor in the little beast

Agree with you on this setup appearing to be softer than in the others I have seen , and I'm particularly speaking of the rear setup..

Fine tuning of the 1m suspension set up went on until just a few months before production, so I'm sure many variations/iterations will occur yet.

FUCK yeah.

I need a little more than what I am seeing from the M2 right now to let go of a 1M. Dying for curb weight ...

Absolutely you should ...

While not of huge importance to me, lighting could also be different...

Certainly an exclusive color is a common offering from BMW on a CSL or even completion model.



For me, aero, lighter/wider wheels, cf roof, likely a slightly more radical tune or possible displacement/compression bump, are already enough to wait.

Major bummer on that one.

No S motor and No CF Roof.

Wow. I thought we'd get an option on the CF.

Yes it does...but I also have not had the privilege of tackling the Ring with my F80. I am sure it would sound pretty good as well.

Sounds great, I'm sure it'll end up sounding better than the S55. Can't wait to see the reveal !
