BMW's NA‑Exclusive M3 CS Handschalter Delivers Manual RWD Thrill

BMW confirms the M3 CS Handschalter—a North America–exclusive, lightweight, rear‑drive variant that swaps the CS's xDrive for a six‑speed manual. It weighs up to 75 lb less thanks to carbon fiber, titanium, and forged aluminum, but delivers 473 hp from the standard M3’s 3.0L twin‑turbo inline‑six; 0–60 in 4.1 seconds and a 180 mph top speed. Optional carbon‑ceramic brakes, forged wheels, and a titanium exhaust help trim weight. Inside, carbon accents are restrained, while the overall package emphasizes driver engagement and drift capability as a send‑off for the sixth‑gen M3.

Manual sendoff: BMW M3 CS Handschalter delivers NA‑exclusive, rear‑drive performance

BMW is releasing the sixth‑generation M3 CS with a six‑speed manual and rear‑wheel drive for 2027, a North America–exclusive Handschalter that trims about 75 lb through CFRP seats, a titanium exhaust muffler, lighter wheels and other weight-saving parts. It uses the same 3.0 L inline‑six S58 as the standard M3 (473 hp) but without xDrive and with a manual gearbox instead of the automatic, and it’s priced around $107,100. This marks the end of manual M3 CS availability in this generation as BMW pivots toward electrification.

America-only manual: BMW bets on the M3 CS Handschalter as a rear-drive sendoff

BMW will offer a very limited 2027 M3 CS Handschalter for North America—a rear-drive, manual-only version that weighs about 42 lb less than the AWD CS thanks to CFRP parts and a titanium exhaust, while delivering 473 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque with a 4.1-second 0–60 mph time and 180 mph top speed. It uses tuned chassis settings from the M4 CSL, lighter components, and options like carbon-ceramic brakes; standard 19/20-in wheels with performance tires, and optional carbon-fiber bits. Two heritage colors are free (Black Sapphire and Isle of Man Green); Imola Red and Techno Violet cost $4,500. Priced from $108,450 (destination) in the U.S., deliveries start in the fall to the U.S. and Canada, with a public reveal at the Petersen Automotive Museum in LA prior to the next M3 generation.”,
