The M4 CSL was built to celebrate the 50th anniversary of BMW’s M division. Limited to 1,000 examples—just 150 of which were sold in its native Germany—the two-seat coupé featured a raft of weight-saving measures that shaved 100 kilograms from the kerb weight of its Competition sibling. A carbon fibre reinforced plastic bonnet and boot lid aided the cause along with reduced sound insulation and a lightweight titanium exhaust, complementing a high specification that included carbon-ceramic disc brakes and an E46 CSL-style integrated rear spoiler.
The M4’s twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre straight-six engine was also tuned for an additional 39 horsepower, taking total power output to 550 horsepower. Aided by a strict diet, the M4 CSL is capable of reaching 100 km/h in just 3.7 seconds. The improvements were best demonstrated during a hot lap of the fearsome Nürburgring, where the CSL shaved eight seconds from the lap time of its M4 GTS sister model.
Finished in Frozen Brooklyn Grey over black, this German-market example was first registered on 22 August 2022 in the name of the consigning seller, with whom it has since remained. The all-important running-in service was carried out on 14 September 2022, and it additionally benefits from full PPF treatment costing in excess of €7,000.
Marrying blistering performance with true rarity, this commemorative edition serves as a fitting tribute to 50 years of incredible M cars.

The BMW M3 first broke cover in 1985. By March of the following year, production had begun in earnest of the 5,000 examples required to homologate the model for the DTM series. Though it bore a striking resemblance to its base-model counterpart, many of the components were unique to the M3, including most body panels, brakes, and the 2,302-cc, four-cylinder S14 engine that lay at its heart.
Continually improved, the series peaked with the arrival of the Sport Evolution, a limited edition run of M3s that boasted an uprated 2,467 cc engine, adjustable front and rear splitters, and brake cooling ducts in place of the usual foglamps. Just 600 of these highly desirable variants were produced between December 1989 and March 1990.
This example was completed on 25 January 1990 and delivered via Helm Glöckler of Frankfurt am Main, where a handover inspection was carried out on 18 July 1990. The 2,000-kilometre first service took place a week later, followed by 13 service stamps in the intervening 32 years; the most recent service stamp is dated 13 May 2022. The car spent much of its life in the care of the Schmidt family—of DTM’s Schmidt Motorsport Technik fame—before being registered in the seller’s name as part of The M Power Collection on 2 December 2020.
Finished in Brillantrot, this top-of-the-range Sport Evolution boasts sought-after air-conditioning, Electronic Damper Control, and an electric sunroof, and is accompanied by its service book and manuals.
