Why surprised, because what was written or because of your own experience?

Wouldn't swap mine for anything.

Still holding it strong despite the temptation at times to upgrade.

Just the fact it's a very quick and enjoyable modern car.
Just goes to show how special the csl is once you explore qualities.
Love mine still been 11 years now.

I think it’s great that the CSL can still be used as a yardstick to current models and still be comparable in many ways.

Great article, and good to see the CSL can still mix it with the cars of today!

I'm not. I own both and the M2 Comp is in my view the best current so called M car. However, it's not close to being as much fun as the CSL.

As usual, so many mistakes that will be perpetuated as fact - why can't journo's EVER just check before they print stuff
