Hero status isn't typically bestowed on nearly new cars - but the CS isn't just any M5.
with its plug-in powertrain will be here before we know it. As the high watermark for both the M5 and the CS M car, it only seemed right to reassess it in the light of pending all-time hero status.
Officially, the CS was 70kg lighter than an M5 Competition, with standard ceramic brakes and forged wheels. The ride height was said to be 7mm lower, with dampers ‘developed for the M8 Gran Coupe’. The tyres were a bespoke Pirelli P Zero Corsa, and the CS got its own engine mounts. The modifications didn’t point to a transformative overhaul, yet that’s exactly what was delivered. And let’s be clear: the M5 Competition was - still is - a very good super-saloon, one of the best around.
The tyres make a difference this time around as well. On that first drive, it was using a Michelin Pilot Sport 4S; undoubtedly a very good tyre, but not the Pirelli P Zero Corsa the car was designed around and can now be found on each corner. Any reservations that existed in 2021 can now be quashed: the CS is sensationally good.
