Thumbs up EVO Rate CSL As A Top Investment

There's an article in the latest EVO where they pick 44 cars that have been built in the last 15 years that they think will be future icons with the criteria being that they are all:

a) great cars
b) likely to appreciate

They go on to write a short intro about each one and give an investment rating.

There's always speculation around CSL prices and what will happen to them so i'm sure everyone will be pleased to know only three cars got a 5 star investment rating:

- Lamborghini Diablo SV
- Porsche 996 GT3 RS
- BMW M3 CSL

Not bad company to be in I think!!!

I took some quick pictures from the article below.

On a side note this is my first post as a CSL owner so hello all! I posted a few times when I was looking and bought my car off 83SY about 6 months ago. It's a great piece of kit, been loving using it. I've bumped into a couple of you guys already (Matt and Alex) at the ring in May which hopefully will become a regular pilgrimage.

I told you that! If they want to use a CSL image it should be of BMW's stock '161 BMW' and not one that is privately owned, without your permission ('Data Protection Act' applies) ego boost great, but keep yours out of the public eye!

Commission !?!? You'd be lucky to get a free copy of the Mag
BTW they should revise the "Now" price to £20k - £50k as Hexagon BMW are boosting Cecil prices

Welcome mate

I bought this issue on Friday morning, just as I was about to jump on a plane to view my first (soon to be) CSL. It was a sign!

Quite dissapointed that they didn't feature the CSL in the following 'Future Icons' article, despite being one of three to receive all 5 'pound signs' (out of 44 cars in all).
