The all-new BMW M3 CS

Price starts from: THB 14,999,000 (VAT incl. with BSI Standard Package)

The all-new BMW M3 CS takes centre stage with a unique character of its own: an ability to serve up an undiluted M feeling that excites and enthralls drivers over every mile on the road as well as on the track. An intelligent lightweight construction featuring a large number of carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) components, plus increased engine power, a bespoke chassis setup, exclusive design features and a specification precision-honed to deliver an exhilarating performance experience on the track, combine with the functionality and everyday usability of the BMW M3 Sedan.

With its bold aesthetics, enhanced aerodynamics, and race-inspired features, the BMW M3 CS draws its power from a specially upgraded version of the high-revving six-cylinder in-line 3.0-litre engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology. Working in tandem with an eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic, the engine produces an impressive power of 405 kW / 551 hp at 6,250 rpm and an engine torque of 650 Nm at 2,750 – 5,950 rpm. The vehicle can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h within 3.4 seconds with a top speed of 302 km/h, manifesting its supreme driving talents that can be enjoyed from each of its four seats.

Standard specification for the special-edition model includes M Compound brakes with red brake callipers. There is also the option of M Carbon ceramic brakes whose brake callipers are available in matt Gold. The M3 CS is fitted as standard with M light alloy wheels in star spoke style 827 M in Gold Bronze or Black, measuring 19 inches in diameter at the front axle and 20 inches at the rear with track tyres.

Extensive, model-specific lightweight design measures play a major part in moulding the performance qualities and exclusive character of the new BMW M3 CS with the use of components made from carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) both inside and out.
Besides its carbon fibre roof, the special-edition model also uses CFRP for its bonnet, front splitter, front air intakes, exterior mirror caps, rear diffuser and rear spoiler. Its centre console, the shift paddles on the steering wheel and its interior trim strips are likewise all manufactured from CFRP. The standard M Carbon bucket seats also do their bit to keep weight down in the cabin. The titanium rear silencer, meanwhile, shaves more than 4 kilograms off the weight of the exhaust system fitted on the new BMW M3 CS. Body rigidity is further increased with high-precision strut braces for the engine compartment that have also been engineered for lightness.

The new BMW M3 CS instantly announces its sharper character with a series of individual design features. The vehicle’s front end sports a weight-saving, frameless BMW kidney grille with a stripped-back air reminiscent of racing machines. Designed especially for this model, identifying features include red contour lines and the “M3 CS” badging on the upper of the two horizontal grille bars. Both the model badge at the front and its counterpart on the boot lid have black surfaces with a red border. The BMW Laserlight headlights illuminate yellow instead of white – both during the Welcome sequence when the vehicle is unlocked and while low beam or high beam is switched on – they reference successful GT racing cars.

Inside the new BMW M3 CS, a sports car cockpit designed with concentrated driving pleasure and maximum performance. The M Carbon bucket seats in the new BMW M3 CS are upholstered in Merino leather and feature an exclusive design in a Black/Red colour scheme with distinctive contrast stitching. The door panels are trimmed entirely in Black leather in both the front and the rear, while red “CS” lettering adorns the lightweight-design centre console. The standard equipment roster for the new BMW M3 CS also includes M seat belts with a woven stripe pattern in BMW M GmbH colours, door sill plates bearing the inscription “M3 CS”, an Anthracite-coloured headliner, and an M Alcantara steering wheel with CFRP shift paddles and a red centre marker.

The new BMW M3 CS boasts the latest-generation BMW iDrive vehicle experience based on BMW Operating System 8, which includes the BMW Curved Display for the cockpit. This is formed by a 12.3-inch information display and a control display with a screen diagonal of 14.9 inches. The BMW M3 CS is equipped as standard with the latest version of Comfort Access, 3-zone automatic climate control, the Harman Kardon Surround Sound System, Park Distance Control, and Lane Departure Warning.
