Thumbs up

It looks amazing.
And I think it's back to being interesting (unlike the E92 M3 - please don't start with the Schirmer E92 M3s that are faster than a factory BMW MS E92 M3 GT2).

I am looking forward to drive this car.
I am sure it will be stunning.

Well done BMW M !

Alex,
The Schirmer cars are faster, but if you saw one up close, you'd see why - they're not something you would want to live with, they're dedicated track cars, being completely gutted and stripped out, so are over 250kg lighter than a standard car. Imagine what a weapon a CSL would be if you could remove 250kg .

Looks good. How does it compare for size with an E39 M5 I wonder?

E90/92 M3 was a great car Alex, just too heavy. The engine was epic, true M style rev the knackers off it epic. Responded well to a tweak, easy 450/460 bhp. Also last N/A M car.

Best thing about the F30? They've finally realised it's weight problem. At last the weight is coming down! Not enough but it's the right direction.

I think the new CsL wil take a go at carbon composite technology on the F10 platform with areas of the car replaced with carbon composite panels and no metals, reducing weight.

My guess is CSL weight will be 1380kg

Looks great....Love the front especially......The M4 seems to have sort of a CSL inspired boot.....Not sur eif the back looks a bit overstyled on the M3...but I'm just being picky...Its a great looking car and I'm sure will go like stink.
