The ones earmarked for the United States were offered at $155,000 a pop. That exorbitant price tops even the $139,900 M4 CSL. However, it still falls far short of the rumored $750,000 price tag of the 3.0 CSL. Officially, the M4 CS Edition VR46 is the most expensive M4-badged model BMW has ever made. Despite no mechanical upgrades, it commands a $31,500 premium over the standard M4 CS donor car.<\/p>\n<p>Each of the 92 owners will have the chance to meet \u201cThe Doctor\u201d at the VR46 Motor Ranch in Tavullia.
