CS (2020 to 2021)

The BMW M2 CS (F87, 2020–2021) is the hardcore "swansong" of the first-generation M2, widely regarded by the 2026 Australian buyer pool as the most significant M-car of its decade. With only 86 units officially delivered to Australia, its extreme rarity has transformed it from a track-focused special into a highly insulated investment asset, specifically targeted by collectors who value its bespoke carbon-fibre bonnet (with central air vent), carbon roof, and unique 450hp (331kW) tune. Its desirability is currently at an all-time high because it represents the final, lightweight, rear-drive manual masterpiece before the M-division moved toward the significantly heavier G87 platform and increasing hybridization. In the Australian market, the "halo" spec—Misano Blue paint over Gold 763M forged wheels with the 6-speed manual transmission—is the most coveted configuration, often commanding a substantial premium over the DCT versions. For the elite buyer pool, a 2026 "blue-chip" M2 CS must have a flawless service history, particularly the 1,200-mile running-in service, as the car's value is now strictly tied to its provenance as the ultimate "Competition Sport" expression of the F87 chassis.
