Samantha Tan for some inesplicable reason got a CSL, and she really didn’t transfer any particular excitement: https://youtu.be/OLIT7DHLHrU?si=PxBCREDHW9vP7YBS

Well to be fair, it’s a serious problem for anyone that has kids or a father who asks that you pick him up a milkshake before you come and visit. It’s ridiculous and something prospective owners should be aware.

Considering the weight of the last BMWs, the intention is not to having the customers gaining pounds. No milkshake, better performances

It would be awesome if M was serious about the CSL for the masses. Imagine an M2 with a manual transmission, 550 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque, no rear seats, other weight reductions, CCB’s, and amazing bucket seats. And a cupholder |

But what do I know (humbly), I’m not a pro race car driver. So I may be missing something.

To be fair, this now makes two straight CS releases with the individual non-frozen color being a Porsche color. This wasn’t the case with the F80 CS or F87 CS. Personally, I wonder if BMW is just getting a little lazy. The upcoming F90/99 will not have any new/unique colors, which is a first for an M5 release AFAIK.

We didn't complain because they were "yellow" we complained because the headlights were xenon white, and the halos were way too dim and halogen colored. Just wanted them to match. If they were "yellow" and bright like these it would have been a different story

It's like back in the day, having black plastic trim was considered uncool and the mark of a "base mode"l car. Manufacturers charged extra for body-colored trim. Now, you pay extra for "shadowline trim" since everyone wants their car "murdered out". Except this doesn't apply to window switches for some odd reason, as buyers evidently want silver-painted "galvanic controls". I've given up trying to understand automotive trends.
