When asked about if he became considered a lighter type version CSL, said they do not think something like that at the moment, but there were no plans for either the previous generation.

Finally, while Collins declined to give more information about the powertrain, it is assumed that once the S55 3,0-liter six-cylinder turbo engine that is based on the N55 which time the M135i and 640i and combined with an automatic transmission double clutch, similar to what time the M5.
