Will BMW make a M2 CSL?

[anonymous-user]

Notice BMW alluding to future new CSL models. Maybe room for a M2CSL for BMW's 100th anniversary next year?

[J-P]

Maybe?

Really hope they do as it could be very special indeed.

[SAG6Y]

Yes they will. I have a deposit on one

[nwates]

Nothing in the pipeline dealers will not take a deposit

[SAG6Y]

I have the order form to prove it! They took £500 and have guaranteed me a car if I have one allocated.

Well they can't guarantee anything if it doesn't exist. I'm assuming a dealer will happily take money off customers for a model that hasnt been announced and may never be announced but £500 seems a very small deposit for such a prestigious car.

Perhaps it's just me being sceptical and hope it is announced and you get a slot, the E46 CSL was and still is a dream car even though I owned one, the gearbox ruined the ownership for me but on looks and sound alone, BMW have yet to surpass it even now!

Please give me the dealers name so I can call and reserve one thanks

[J-P]

Dealers shouldn't be taking money at this stage. I'm top of the list for one at a BMW main dealer and I haven't put any cash down yet. Once it's announced, I'll be asked for £1k to secure my slot and then I'll have to commit to buy.

Can you share the dealer details please. I have asked the dealer where i put mu deposit for M2, but they said they have no info from BMW about M2 CSL.

Any idea about the price?

Cheers,
Sajin

Deposit placed with my local dealer .

[griff7]

I also put an order in a few months ago with a 1K deposit and i'm first on the list for for the dealership.

[S.Deaville]

I also have a £1k deposit down.

£500 Deposit put down today, number 1 at my dealer if they make the M2 CSL.

I've been considering putting a deposit down for this. However I spoke to a dealer this morning who was at an M event recently, he had word personally from the Head of M Division that the M2 CSL will not be happening.

Every other dealer I've spoken to is quite happy to take my £1000 deposit. What do we think? Are BMW bluffing to maximise sales of the M2? Or is there genuinely no CSL/GTS on the cards?

[breadvan]

Still think/hope it's going to happen, the M2 has much room for improvement to make it a full blown M car (mirrors, oil temp, etc, etc) on top of any CSL trinkets to add, plus I'm sure they are a planning another halo car for their centenary, just don't know what. The 2 series concept revealed recently could pave the way?

As far as rushing out to place a deposit, I would forget it, that's not how BMW allocate halo cars. Each interested customer will be vetted, largely out of your dealerships hands.

Let's hope it happens and Good Luck!

I did fear this. As I've never owned an M car, is that likely to rule me out entirely?
