No thanks. A bit OTT for me. I'd have the performance up-grades but go stealthy on the looks.

i think when you are pushing 600bhp you need a wider track to get the power down, so its kinda part and parcel of the performance upgrades.

and i dont think bright orange on the gts is less stealthy than this monster.

whether or not i would want one is an entirely different matter.

I didn't mean converting a GTS. I was thinking a bogo coupe.

gts or bog coupe , the chassis is not designed to handle that kind of power, thus to push 600bhp, modifications to the chassis must be made. they dont need to be, but for better traction in lower gears and powering out of corners it is paramount.

I expressed my opinion when I first saw the CSL 1.5 year ago in Munich (one of the first ones to see it).

Nah, more powerful M3s running round with standard bodies.

There is a customer M3 Coupe at Simpson Motorsport with more than 600bhp. Chassis handles the power just fine.
