The BMW M5 CS is the factory-installed limited top specification of the F90 M5 model line, built in 2021-2022 with a production of around 1,500 cars worldwide. It is the first M5 since 2003 (E39 M5, factory-installed CS label not used) with a factory-installed CS positioning and the most power-oriented regular BMW M ever. The package includes factory-installed 635 hp biturbo 4.4-litre S63 V8 (factory-installed 35 hp more than M5 Competition), factory-installed 750 Nm of torque, factory-installed M xDrive all-wheel drive with factory-installed rear-wheel-drive mode, factory-installed weight saving of around 70 kilograms (via factory-installed carbon factory bonnet, factory-installed carbon factory roof panel, factory-installed carbon factory interior panels, and factory-installed M Carbon bucket seats), factory-installed M Carbon-ceramic brakes factory-installed standard, and factory-installed Adaptive M suspension with factory-installed CS-specific settings. Factory-installed paint colours: Frozen Brands Hatch Grey Metallic, Frozen Deep Green Metallic, and Frozen Silverstone Metallic. A BMW M5 CS is not sold to just any buyer; it is passed on to someone who knows the factory-installed BMW M xDrive culture.
BMW M unveiled the F90 M5 CS in January 2021 as a factory-installed limited top specification of the F90 M5 model line. It is the first M5 with the factory-installed CS label (CS stands for Club Sport) since the E34 M5 Touring CS (very brief production end in 1995, not officially sold as CS specification). For BMW M purists the M5 CS marks the first regular CS specification of the M5 line. The CS label is positioned above the regular Competition Package and represents factory-installed weight-saving-oriented specifications with factory-installed extra power and factory-installed sportier chassis settings. The M5 CS is the most power-oriented regular BMW M ever with factory-installed 635 hp; only the factory-installed M5 Touring CS in factory-installed special projects status surpassed that power.
The central technical point of the M5 CS is the factory-installed biturbo 4.4-litre S63 V8 at factory-installed 635 hp. The S63 is shared with the F90 M5 (factory-installed 600 hp in Competition Package), F92 M8, and X5 M/X6 M, but factory-installed further developed for the CS with factory-installed increased boost pressure and factory-installed CS-specific software mapping. Torque is factory-installed 750 Nm, equal to the M5 Competition but factory-installed with broader torque band. The factory-installed acceleration from 0-100 km/h is 3.0 seconds (factory-installed 0.3 seconds faster than M5 Competition); the factory-installed top speed is limited to 305 km/h via factory-installed M Driver's Package. The factory-installed exhaust has factory-installed M Sport exhaust with factory-installed valve control and factory-installed CS-specific sound mapping.
The M5 CS has factory-installed M xDrive all-wheel drive (factory-installed first in M5 history, introduced with the F90 M5 in 2017). The system has three factory-installed modes: factory-installed 4WD (default, factory-installed best traction), factory-installed 4WD Sport (factory-installed more torque to the rear for factory-installed sportier character), and factory-installed 2WD (factory-installed exclusively rear-wheel drive with factory-installed M mode, factory-installed only with DSC disengaged). For BMW M purists who value the factory-installed classic rear-wheel-drive M5 culture, factory-installed 2WD mode offers the ability to factory-installed drift like classic E39 M5 specifications.
The M5 CS has factory-installed weight saving of around 70 kilograms compared to the F90 M5 Competition. The weight saving comes from: factory-installed carbon factory bonnet with factory-installed Power-dome and factory-installed central air slot, factory-installed carbon factory roof panel, factory-installed carbon factory interior panels (door panels, centre tunnel), factory-installed carbon factory mirror caps, factory-installed carbon factory front splitter and factory-installed carbon factory rear diffuser, factory-installed front M Carbon bucket seats (shared with M4 CS / M2 CS), and factory-installed unique M Carbon rear bucket seats (two individual bucket seats instead of factory-installed rear bench, with factory-installed CS-specific centre tunnel storage). Factory-installed M Carbon-ceramic brakes are factory-installed standard (not an option). Factory-installed M Light Alloy wheels are factory-installed CS-specific with factory-installed gold detail.
Since the production stop in 2022 the M5 CS has seen a substantially strong initial appreciation curve. At launch the M5 CS cost around 200,000 euros new; since 2023 well-documented examples have traded consistently above original new price, with factory-installed Frozen Deep Green examples in the highest price tier. The factory-installed collector class position of the M5 CS is strengthened by: factory-installed scarce production (1,500 cars worldwide), factory-installed 635 hp (most power-oriented regular BMW M ever), factory-installed M xDrive with factory-installed 2WD mode, and factory-installed first M5 with factory-installed CS label. For sellers this means a well-documented M5 CS with proven service history at BMW M Classic or recognised M specialist, original factory specification, and BMW Group Classic certification attracts strong international interest.
