Quicker, leaner and more interactive than standard, the BMW M3 CS is one of our favourite modern supersaloons -
While the steering ratio remains the same as M3 xDrive it does feel more keyed into the car’s responses, although there are times when more clarity to what’s happening would be welcome. There isn’t the initial sense of connection the best systems offer and it doesn’t possess the linear action you want in slow-to medium turns especially when the surface is inconsistent. It means you can find yourself taking a second bite at a corner’s entry feeling for that limpet-like grip to build.
Work carried out to the M3 CS’s S58 engine isn’t as comprehensive as the chassis’s workover, the upgrades limited to an increase in turbocharger pressure from 1.7 to 2.1 bar and the ECU remapped accordingly. With an additional 49bhp peak power increases to 542bhp, while torque remains at 479lb ft. In the lower gears it’s rapid, throttle response as instant as the front end is reactive and the speed feels never ending as it builds.
Look behind its frameless grille and under the carbon bonnet and you are presented with a sizeable piece of evidence as to the CS’s sharp dynamics in the form of an intricate but purposeful aluminium cross-brace. If you were inclined to poke around some more you’ll find the new engine mount that’s been redesigned with a higher spring rate to improve rigidity between the engine and the car’s core structure. It’s a car dripping in attention to detail in every area that counts.
