That is mighty impressive as long as the car did the time "as is".
Personally i don't trust any laptimes published by the manufacturer anymore.
I'll wait until the SportAuto put it through its paces, at least they will tell you if the car had any non-production modifications (camber etc)

But i like how raw the special versions have become (rear seat delete, fire extinguisher etc) just wish bmw would not limit the production numbers so much. So they will actually be used as a track car rather than a collectors item.

I asked this to some M executives on an M event here in Istanbul last year and their reasoning was the difficulty they had to move the CSLs last time. They said there were cars sitting at the dealers for a year and more. They are being more cautious I guess.

Yes thats probably the reason but if they would make more the could also lower the price, substantially. The m3 csl was actually a bargain compated to the gts'.

honestly for a blown motor, I'd much rather do it in my GTR. Merrrrrrr.......

Plus, it just looks like they put some need for speed parts on it instead of a proper engineering exercise.

Getting more shitty as we progress.
