Obviously cars evolve but this is an entry level M car showing a pretty clean pair of heels to the ultimate E46 M3 on special rubber.

The E92 manages the exact same time as the 1M but with a slightly higher peak speed.
Wasnt trying to be deffensive, quite the opposite as it shows how good the CSL is.... To be honest I stopped my subcription to evo a few years ago because I was bored of evo as It seemed to loose its original direction and become a bit to serious and most importantly were always slating the CSL (though they did see the light in the end! )

My point was aimed only that for me development has slowed down a lot in the recent years, just take into consideration that top gear episode when they put modern road cars against rally cars..... ( i know TG is slightly on the light side) if you do that with modern cars in comparison to race/rally cars say 10 to 15 years old, the road cars may be slower.
