You'll get a much better response from bimmerpost in the F80 section. Loads of info and owners on there.

I was going to Direct to M3Cutters. Think they've only chatted CP for about 6 months on there.

I previously owned a C63 Coupe and I am going to be ordering an M3 CP soon.

You'll miss the noise and drama of the C63... a lot... but you'll love the extra pace and great handling.

YouTube and Bimmerpost are your friends smile

I also wrote the following about mine on another post the other day....


I've had my M4 CP almost two months now and have just got back from a 2 week road trip around Europe, so I'm over 4000 miles in total now.

First of all I should say I was very nervous getting rid of my E92 CP, I loved that car and it's engine is a masterpiece and is clearly more special than the S55. However, the new car is in a different league of performance and handling, and all round ability, I'm really surprised how much better it is.

I have driven a number of different F82's since launch, on road and track, and I can honestly say the CP is far superior to the others. The early 2014 cars really did have traction issues and felt like the rear axle wasn't well located which didn't inspire confidence especially in fast sweeping corners. The CP though is so much more composed and has astounding grip in the dry and it's blisteringly fast. The front end grip is monumental and you have to be pretty deliberate to get any sort of understeer, when you have some heat in the tyres it feels so agile.

Some say the CP doesn't feel quicker than the standard car, and admittedly I haven't driven them back to back but I'm almost certain the CP pulls harder at the top end. Was pretty staggering as well to see it hit 165mph on the autobahn in 7th gear and not even be pulling 5k revs. Unlimited and with a long enough road goodness knows how fast it would go, sadly I had to back off as a car pulled out up ahead.

On the other hand, I drove home just over 500 miles yesterday and in efficient and comfort mode it was comfortable, relaxing and efficient, doing over 28mpg on the journey. The fact I can fit two weeks luggage and still have the back seats empty just shows the astonishing breadth of abilities, it is very nearly all things to all people.

The CP exhaust sounds so much better than the standard car, however I do want to increase the noise a touch so will look at some sort of OEM mod, I had a 2 pipe mod on my E92 and it transformed the noise.

The CP seats don't miss the lumbar adjustment, I have a dodgy back and was worried I would struggle on long journeys. However the seats really are supremely comfortable.

I did think long and hard about a C63S Coupe and I should fess up I haven't driven one, however the extra 250KG of weight was the deal breaker for me, the M4 is borderline too heavy but gets away with it because of it's brilliant chassis. I'm sure the V8 in the C63 makes a better noise and might pull a little harder but that extra weight just turned me off.

Try and get an extended test drive if you can you won't regret it, sadly it seems the amazing deals that were around 3 months ago have become a little harder to find and some dealers have sold their entire allocation for the year, but there are still slots around so do your homework if you want one. I have no doubt you won't be disappointed.
