Is the M4 CS Worth $100k?
Share your thoughts on this acceleration review posted by TrackDay.
Is the M4 CS worth the money or would you rather wait for the G82 M4 C? |

Having owned a Base Model 2017 M4, I'd have to say that the CS makes the regular M4 look a little bland on the exterior.... Purely my opinion and perhaps a little bias, but overall I couldn't be happier with my CS! My only gripe - No Manual Transmission Option |

At first I thought this thread/title was started by that db named "NewM3...." something or other who as of late constantly trolls here puffing up his M340 purchase. But I'm sure he'll turn up here sooner or later.

No. You can buy an MHD tune for $350 and your base model is now quicker than a CS for a fraction of the price. Suspension, cooling, wheels, mods all you want and still much cheaper overall.

When you factor in the huge discounts many people like myself have gotten on the CS, then all the mods to a Base M4 to make it comparable to a CS do not quite seem worth it to me, especially when you're comparing a heavily modified Base car to a stock CS from the factory.....

It ain't worth 100k, but it sure is worth every penny of the ~78k USD I paid for mine

Of course not but the M3 CS certainly is
Kidding - yes at $80K out the door it is worth it plus the G80 is a big wait and see. |

If I spend over $100K on BMW then I would go with the 911 base version.

You're comparing new to used. I never said anything about a new GT3 for 100K. I said I'm comparing 100k to 100k. Here are 4 GT3's 991.1 for sale right at 100k https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...Type=spotlight https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...ckType=listing https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...ckType=listing https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...ckType=listing Now let's be real here. You're the one limiting yourself to 500 miles and once again if you had 100k which would you finance? The M4CS is newer I do agree. In this case new isn't always better. Plus the M4 isn't all that new. It's a 2015 car that's just been up upgraded over the years. The chassis remains the same if I'm not mistaken. |

LOL, I would also love a GT3, but where I live, the cheapest used 2018 GT3 still go for 130k USD, that's 66% more than what I paid for my brand new M4cs

Every one of these discussions revolves around msrp, when no one pays msrp.
New CS at ~80 is a lot of car for the $. No one is going to mention the awkwardness of this review? The full race suit and airy voice overs? huh.
