Does the G80 M3 CS actually beat out the legendary F90 M5 CS? Yes, it does. The M3 CS is better in most ways but a few, and overall brings a purer driver experience to the M Sedan world. We did not expect this outcome, but it's immediately clear after driving both back to back that the M3 CS has not only closed the gap to it's bigger successful brother, it's actually passed it. At first this felt like a "don't meet your hero" moment, but now we're just excited that the M Division is finding its' groove again. And, what will the next M5 CS bring us?
