Starting at $119,695, the limited-edition 2024 M3 CS is a more powerful and more hardcore version of the M3 Competition.
The chief change separating the limited-edition M3 CS from the rest of the lineup is higher power output. BMW retuned the CS's twin-turbo 3.0-liter straight-six to produce 40 horsepower more than the 503-hp Competition for a total of 543 hp. Most of the extra power results from raising the engine's boost pressure from 24.7 psi in the Comp to 30.5 psi in the CS. Torque remains the same in both versions at 479 pound-feet.
With technology derived from the M4 GT3 race car, the CS's cooling system is not only designed to handle the added power, but also the hardships of track use. The engine mounts are significantly stiffer to create a more rigid connection between the engine and the car’s structure, just like in the M4 CSL. With that said, expect noise, vibration, and harshness to be more pronounced.Every M3 CS features an eight-speed automatic transmission with a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system.
