Good job, BMW.

I like that one.
As an added benefit, I'm sure there will be less warranty claims from bicycle impacts due to the smaller surface area.

I'll see myself out

Sorry... so far, this actually looks worse to me than a normal M4. The front almost has that whale-like QX80 vibe to it.

I'll reserve full judgement until the thing is fully revealed but at the moment it looks like an aftermarket SEMA build.

If nothing else it will spawn copy cat body parts of the changes most like, which will be a good thing.

Uh, yea hard pass on this one!

Looks better than the M4 but not $1 million better.
I would take Porsche Turbo S, a 765LT, and an M3 Xdrive Comp for that kinda money.

I understand its for the guys that can just throw cash away but this is pretty stupid.

Looks like it doesn't have the giant display, but a real cockpit as it should be on a sport car.

At least they tried to match the 3.0 CSL Hommage Concept though only the grille somewhat. Rest is all M4 with attachments. Shame could have been special and worth the premium cost. Name:  FF0A4B5A-6FBB-46EC-9F38-023556574C98.jpeg

It's not even clear whether the 3.0 Hommage is street legal - also, there could be exemptions for very low numbers of a model regarding security guidelines.

I'm pretty sure BMW didn't just come up with the M3/M4 hoodline to piss us off, there must be regulatory or security reasons for this.

I was thinking the same thing (…and finally, proper staggered wheel sizes). This is beginning to get interesting. These side/rear profile photos look much better. The front is meh!

I feel so sad that this can be the hommage to the original csl. To justify the price tag this needs to look nothing like an m4.

This is what the "regular" CSL should've looked like and presumably perform, especially for $140K starting price.

Was hoping it would be a little more sculpted, but the camo could be doing its job... getting major GT500 vibes from that side profile shot

This is BMW in the wrong direction.
We don't need another ultra fast M4 nor ultra expensive M4, fans want to see something truly unique and special to wear the iconic name of CSL.

20/21s nice. Now let's make those in Michelin, so, I can get a set for the 1000Ms I want and not get stuck with Yoko Advan. It looks like an M4 with a body kit and center locks. And it's going to be a manual, so, we already know it's not breaking any records.
