<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2015-bmw-m3-sedan/"><img alt="2015 BMW M3" class="right border" data-credit="BMW" data-mep="104476" src="http://o.aolcdn.com/dims-shared/dims3/GLOB/crop/1953x1163+172+504/resize/250x149!/format/jpg/quality/85/http://o.aolcdn.com/hss/storage/adam/2ed07e5fe586b93aa5c1b8cee 7e2c69f/2015-bmw-m3-sedan-000-1.jpg" style="float: right;" /></a>We aren't sure whether to file this one under "good news" or "bad news." <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/bmw/">BMW</a> confirmed to <a href="http://www.topgear.com/uk/car-news/bmw-m3-m4-csl-not-happening-2014-01-22"><em>Top Gear</em></a> that there "are no plans" for lightweight versions of the new <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/bmw/m3/">M3</a> and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/bmw/m4/">M4</a>, in the same vein as the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/bmw+m3+csl/">E46 M3 CSL</a> (despite <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/10/03/bmw-pondering-hardcore-m4-celebrate-100-years/">rumors to the contrary</a>). The reason?<br />
<br />
"There wasn't a CSL on the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/07/25/2013-bmw-m3-coupe-lime-rock-park-edition-review/">previous generation</a>, and the way we look at it is like this: the CSL was great because it had this real focus on lightweight engineering. But we've already done that with these new cars. We've made them as light as possible - they come in under 1500 kilograms (3,306 pounds), which for a car like this is incredible," said Matt Collins, BMW's product manager for small to medium cars.<br />
<br />
Now, as much as we love the idea of a hardcore version of any car, we appreciate BMW's point of view that the newest Ms are already as light and tough as they need to be. Collins elaborated, saying, "Rather than doing a halfway house to begin with and then rolling out a CSL, we thought we'd make the 'real' car as light as we possibly could. So we've no plans whatsoever to make a lighter, harder version just yet."<br />
<br />
What are your thoughts here? Is BMW making a mistake, particularly considering Mercedes-Benz's penchant for launching hardcore Black Editions?
