I took both of my cars out to the track to see what was what when it comes to straight line speed and there was an M4 out there on the day as well.
Its pretty close, you just cant compete with the torque they generate down low with the turbo's with a rolling start they just have the ability to pull away then keep it growing slowly. My 335i walks on the CSL with e30 and the JB4 in it.
That said coming into the corners with less weight and much better brakes the CSL is the more complete unit. I mean can you really beat the noise!
