Someone may have just gotten a steal, with this 2025 BMW M4 CS that just sold on Cars and Bids. Its original sticker price was $125,325, but it just sold to its new owner for $97,500. OK, so it isn’t unusual for a luxury car to depreciate so much so quickly. However, BMW’s CS cars tend to hover around their original price for a while, before eventually going up. So it seems that the new owner got a great deal.
The M4 CS is one of the most extreme performance version’s of the M4, with only the M4 CSL topping it. From the factory, it made 543 horsepower and 479lb-ft of torque. That might not seem like much more than the M4 Competition, because it isn’t. The CS version was never meant to be much more of a straight-line monster than the M4 Comp (even though it is). Instead, it was intended to improve on the M4’s already impressive handling. However, this specific M4 CS has much more power than normal, thanks to a stage 1 Dinan ECU tune, an Eventuri cold-air intake, Active Autowerke downpipes, a Milltek mid-pipe, and Öhlins Road & Track coilover suspension, among many other things. Oh, and it also has a big “BEAST” sticker on the windshield, in case you forget that it’s powerful.

Power is bumped to 635 horses and an almost frightening 510 lb-ft of torque, which should make it substantially quicker than it already was. So with all of that extra power, thanks to BMW’s most iconic tuning shop, and a very impressive suspension, why would this sell for so little?
For starters, simply being modified will make it less desirable with the sorts of collectors who pay big money and prefer bone-stock cars. Additionally, it was in a minor accident. According to the seller, this M4 CS was scraped by a bus while it was parked, which the Carfax report lists as “minor damage.” It seems to have been repaired well enough, though, so it shouldn’t be an issue for anyone looking to actually drive and enjoy the car, rather than keep it as a future investment.
Whoever the new owner is, they just bought one of the most exciting BMWs of the modern era at a substantial discount from its original price. And since it’s also rare, with only around 500 sold in the U.S., they’ll have something special that stands out for years to come.
