Is the 2023 BMW M4 CSL the BEST new luxury performance coupe?

[@omarcortes5754]

I’m not much into BMW but these M4 really tickle my pickle. They look great and the performance is phenomenal.

Hey joe, a UFO just casually on throttles at 18:08. see top left lol

[@TheRacingDoc1]

You mentioned you didn’t like these seats compared to Porsche carbon buckets. That’s because these are the regular buckets which are ok. However, you could’ve optioned this car with the fixed carbon buckets which are on par if not better than porsche. That’s what I have in my CSL and there is absolutely no movement.

[@joshuahancock9023]

I think the side skirts definitely should of been in carbon fiber. I'm waiting to see a video of a CSL with the manhart powerbox in it. Supposed to jump it up from 543hp to 700hp. Add a down pipe and no cat mid pipe and different cold air intake. Love to see that on a Dyno.

[@iglapsu88]

191MPH. Wow! 23 mpg on hwy is not bad for this bad boy sports car. The Germans really know how to build machines. I have a Liebherr Refrigerator and it is the best. Super quiet, great design and super efficient. Love your content Sir. Thanks again!

[@ethanthomas8531]

Whenever I see these videos, I absolutely love the “on throttle!” But it just occurred to me that all these cars are supposed to be broken in before gunning them hard, right? I am considering buying a BMW this year and now I am terrified someone is going to be having fun with it before I can buy it.

[@RaitisRides]

Break in is very subjective. It comes down to varying the RPM.

[@dennetoregon]

It's crazy my 1986 mustang GT was only 3,100 lbs. Cars just kept getting heavier since then

[@deesplash7087]

And faster😏😉

[@jrk1990]

True… but 3500lb 545 hp AWD still good power to weight ratio

[@RaitisRides]

It is all the safety and tech

[@dennetoregon]

@@deesplash7087 it cost me peanuts to make that 5.0 go faster than stock. The flaw from the factory were the wheels. I got better rubber in back, added a better clutch to the T-5. @325lbs of torque on a solid 8.8 limited slip differential it was able to get high 11.s in the quarter mile. I had a 2002 540i that was smooth but just couldn't charge like the foxbody.

[@dennetoregon]

@@RaitisRides of course but now everything is electric. Electric motors in the steering column, seats etc. all these things require wiring harnesses. The wiring harnesses are crazy now. Not to mention manufacturers keep putting screens in the dash. The screens are ruining cars. I want manual buttons again and no more screens.

[@kevintran963]

Hey Raiti, After driving this CSL. How does it compare to your ZL1-1le or even a regular ZL1?

[@lambrosstamos4494]

Not only side skirts but doors should be carbon, too. With the fixed carbon seats and a clubsport type roll bar, please. See, M3 E92 GTS.

[@wolfsosa95]

I’d rather put that S58 engine on the Supra. Hopefully the rumors of the GRMN Supra are true.

[@Unicornpirate]

@@wolfsosa95 1. I doubt BMW will give Toyota the S58. It will cannibalalize sales of the BMW M products. People will go buy a Supra since its gonna be lighter and handle better than any M car and BMW doesn't want that. 2. If the Supra will have it, you gotta wait for the Z4M first since they are the same car. And seeing how BMW didn't offer a M version of the last car, I doubt they will do it with the current gen.

[@RaitisRides]

I am right there with you!

​@@Unicornpirateyou've def never tried to buy a GT car from porsche before. If u haven't bought any cars from them then ur getting a 40k markup on a gt4rs even more on gt3 and so on. 😂 even without an allocation for one ur still going to pay above sticker.

Yeah it’s basically a b58 with larger turbos, and less compression ratio. Still a 3 liter, and heavily overpriced. The lag is very noticeable. You want power. Just get a vr38

[@Bimmer_Bill]

⁠@@2seepyou’re a moron, the internals are fully forged unlike the b58, the bore stroke ratio is less undersquare to favor higher rpm power. The cylinder head is 3d printed and has much bigger valves. The engine is built overall to withstand more abuse and about 80% of it is unique not shared with the b58. The p58 racing engine (gt3 cars) is largely the same as the s58 (block bore stroke internals). Get it right. Don’t be ignorant! Oh the s58 has only been in m3/m4 since 2021 and the aftermarket is what drives how fast these engines actually become. The vr38, 2jz, have been in production far longer with way more aftermarket development. However they are still far less advanced from the factory. These are facts.
