Hi from Münich CSL! :D

[Levente]

Hi everyone!

First of all i would like to thank David Fischer who pointed out this perfect website for me :D i would like to announce that i became a lucky owner of a SG CSL 2 months ago. Im from Hungary, Budapest, i live in Münich since 3 years now working at BMW as a 3D graphic artist.

I never thought i will be able to get my hands on the csl so fast but i was lucky enough to find this good deal at mobile.de The car has 60k km and bought it for 39k euro in Düsseldorf. The car was stolen and had one accident, the whole front was damaged but it was replaced with new parts by the dealer. I received the necassary documents from the Police that the car has been found and can be used.

Last offical bmw check was at 55k km. So i risked a lot with this car cause i couldnt possibly know what happened to the car while it was stolen, but fortunately service told me that everything is all right. Needles to say that im crazy fanatic about this car since 5 years now and that was my happiest day of my life so far to buy this car and own it :D Anyway im just happy to be part of the club and here are some pics of this most hardcore bmw ever made :D

[glendog74]

Welcome Levente :thumbs:

Do you know Roland at BMW?

[Levente]

Thanks man, hmm can you be a bit more specific? which Roland? :D:D :smt035

Welcome to the club :thumbs:

[Levente]

thanks! :smt055 Just to show you how im fanatic about this car i even made a 3D version of it with self made textures shaders, started back in 2008. Modelled in Autodesk 3D studio max 2009 with polygons :) hope you like it, i can post more pics if you guy interested. :smokin:

[mattCSLnut]

Very COOL :smokin: Welcome to the Club Levente :thumbs:
More pix U say :whistle: ................ Oh, go on then ;)

[pinkpanther008]

Hi Levante,

Was this model generated from a 3d scan (GOM type) or just modelled over some orthographic drawings?

Welcome to the club and considering your cars history it is looking good in the pics, Enjoy:-)

Munich - Wish i was as close the Nordschleife as lucky you:-)

[sailorbaz]

Excellent choice of Car mate, and of course the colour is the fastest one.

You need to PM MarkCSL for your CSLRegister window sticker. Don't worry, it's not overkill!

WELCOME LEVENTE :thumbs:

[Levente]

Thanks :rock::beer: Hi pinkpanther, no there is no3d scan used here, i used bluprints for reference that i could find in google, and started out the modell with a simple 4 segment box then added edges moved vertexes moved edges and so on. Studied really long how the curves goin on the car and the fillets and tried to recreate that with polygons. Theres like 8 months raw work in this 3d modell. Looking back to it now i see some problems for example i made the front carbon flaps too big and the hole too :bigcry:

[azrael]

Welcome, thats dedication for sure :)

[Mark CSL]

Welcome LEVENTE i am sure you will love the csl and someday you might own the faster SB model :hahaha::hahaha::hahaha:

[pinkpanther008]

Wow, i see you also did the whole interior, thats great work!

Great attention to detail, congratulations:-)

lol yes its me, thanks man : D Where did you see my pics? i posted on 2 sites www.cg-cars.com (http://www.cg-cars.com) and www.e46-fanatics.com (http://www.e46-fanatics.com) i couldnt update anymore cause i ran out of upload juice :D but since then i teamed up with a friend who made a novitec ferrari 3D modell and we started to make a short film you can check it on my site (www.levente3d.hu (http://www.levente3d.hu)) under the LV41 tab. So this project is on pause now, but i recently continued to work on the 3D csl again, the innen hood part and trunk and almost started the engine too but since i have the REAL CSL now, i have no motivation to make more progress :D but this is the latest status of the 3D csl

[alexk]

Welcome to the club !

Congrats on your CSL.
We all share the same feeling about the M3 CSL.

Love your 3d designs, I have seen them in another forum.
:thumbs:

[Jurn]

Do you have a link where I can download all the 3D pictures? Great work man :thumbs:

[Levente]

hi alex! which software did you render that wheel with tire on your avatar? looks good ;) these are the latest renders made a year ago. some shots from the shortfilm which is still work in progress. CSL is the police car (of course) :D

[AlexGTT]

Absolutely brilliant Levente.:thumbs:Loving the Police car.

Someone linked to your images on another forum a couple of years back. Can't remember where but I saved a number of them. Great work.

[LeinsCSL]

Holy feck that's impressive Levente!! Congrats on your real CSL too

Concerning your car, you took some risks but it seems clear concerning the story.

I just found the pic in the internet... it's a BBS CH.
I have a set of CHs and somehow I found the avatar interesting.

[Levente]

Now that i would like to see a real CSL with these police wraps hehe : D il post some more renders. Btw if you guys have any ideas of wraps i can test it out how would it look on the 3D csl i can do anything with this : D theres no limitations here :smokin: the last two pics i used the mercedes arena for enviroment :smokin:

[AlexGTT]

Great solution to test out wrap ideas. :thumbs:

[JuveCSL]

Hello guys,

New member here. Been registered a while but I must admit to lurking and reading numerous threads.

Levente - many congratulations on a great car. Your work is amazing. Is it possible that you create a few pics with a csl in my two favourite BMW colours: laguna seca blue and maybe interlagos blue with anthracite colour wheels? Just curious as to how they would look as I'm considering wrapping my future csl and powder coating the wheels.

Thanks in advanced

Hi,

CSL always goes much better
on as set of the well 'Scrubbed' Options.

Is it me, or does the E46 look really
very dated now, even more so in
these very sharp intense pictures.

It's strange as some days it does but then others it seems really fresh

I think Csl in standard form looks more dated than one lowered, spacers etc

look dated? you gotta be kidding, beside the fact that this car is a legend and its performance and background the other thing i like the most is the exterior design, its just the most perfect design bmw has ever made, i mean just look at the lines, on the side how the carbon flap curves and the same curve is on the rear spoiler. The CSL will never look dated, everytime i see other people take pics from it im blown away by the aggressive character look. No other new bmw design still comes close to this design IMO :supz: and btw to quote jeremy, il just leave this here: "CSL is Better then any BMW from the past and judging by the new styling efforts, better then any from the future as well." fuck yea

I totally agree! :)

One of the nicest BMW designs. (with the 8 series ;) )

Congrats Levente, she is beauty :drool: really nice pics, keep them coming

i think the same way :beer:

[AlexGTT]

Plenty of life left in those Cups mate.:thumbs:

As regards CSL looking dated, possibly in some pictures but definately not in most. And in the metal, not a chance. E46 is the best proportioned and shaped BMW in recent times. With CSL details I don't think you could get it any better. If anything it's getting more appreciated with age.

word my friend :smokin: appreciated is the word. every time i go somewhere everyone always look at my car had many occasions where one or two guys filmed my car when i stopped at the red lamp lol. Here in München csl is very much appreciated, people always look at it like " OMFG is that a next gen bmw m3? love this car man. but it makes sense since csl is the best car bmw ever made, sure the GTS might be faster on the ring but only 2 seconds lol thats very weak effort from bmw after 8 years, they simply wont make another hardcore car like the csl with this amount of carbon parts cause it would cost ridicilusly fkin much. csl is the peak of bmws work imo, and we are lucky to own one.

[Levente]

i post some more pics :)

Some more cracking photos mate, good work.

Wow those are fine pictures sir. :thumbs:

Amazing picture; thanks for sharing.

I like the Jeremy's Clarkson quote.

He also sait this about the M3 CSL:

"This is a truly great car. Better than any BMW from the past and, judging by some of the recent styling efforts, better than any from the future as well.

Looks great but 385 from a remap aint gonna happen! :whistle:

[adem.csl]

Dms reckon they can make 385bhp for £600.when I spoke to imran at evolve he told me they buy his map Then tweek it.it runs higher exhaust temps and is dangerously on the limit of engine safety.Not good in his Or my opinion.
I ended up with a safe reliable 375bhp for £350.proven
Car drives superb.

Hi,

Quote- ''Looks great but 385 from a remap aint gonna happen! !!!!

Nathan- Fool's ''Gold'' springs to mind, but its whatever
makes people happy, when spending their money, I guess.

Drove a E92 M3 last week with an ''alleged' 460 BHP
Re-map and De-catted/Improved exhaust etc, problem was it
was so shy on the Rollers it only wanted to show
419 of them.

Well you never fully believe anyone who is trying to sell something as they always hype a claim.they just came extremely highly recommended and I got a good deal on my map.I'm not say I believe or know as fact who is using who's map.I don't know.but dms do claim to make 385bhp but I haven't heard from a csl owner that can vouch that claim.
I know dms just done a dpf bypass and remap on a 335id e90 that now makes amazing figures.can't remember exactly what The figures were though around 380bhp and 450ish torque.and is extremely quick.
