Is there any person(s) on here that are the original owner of their CSL?

Just wondering whether you were hopeful with the future values and hung on them for the last decade or jumped?

I remember when BMW were struggling to shift these when new, my mum bought a new E46 M3 vert and you could get a CSL for less than a full spec boggo E46 M3!

Well if this is at £44k then I wouldn't be advertising at anything less than £50k....

its interesting the values of CSL's ... I've just sold my RangeRover and looking for a nice Porsche 964 or 993 C2 as a daily

I've budgeted just over £30K

Looked at 6 different 964 C2's this week all with rep specialist dealers ( all down south ) and to be honest there was not one I'd buy for the money they were asking as they all had body or paint issues , apart from one of them that was up for £40K

Travelling back home I realised what a bargain a CSL is ... a low production , highly praised ( every new M3 / 4 is going to be compared against the csl by the press ) desirable 'classic'

Even my wife , who hates the car , can see why us blokes want one

964RS , press ripped it to shreds on launch ... 964 C2 , unloved for years and now you can't seem to find a nice one.

Ive been toying with selling my car, but now realise how difficult it would be to replace it with anything comparable .... we shouldnt undersell our CSL's

I think that's a bit light today for the miles, condition, and history.

That does look in lovely condition from the pics, however that's top money and I'd expect the owner to write a better, more detailed advert than that!

I think it was Autocar's Andrew Frankel who was the most critical of the CSL on launch. Said it was too uncomfortable and harsh for a daily, and not worth the extra money over standard, although I've always thought he was thrown off course by the presence of rear seats

IIRC, Autocar's Chris Harris, plus Dickie Meaden & John Barker from Evo, thought much more highly of the CSL

Don't sell unless you have to or 997 GT3 3.8 to replace it isn't bad. Both will appreciate in value. Mind you the GT3 you will need to get it at a decent price otherwise if you over pay, you simply won't loose, but you won't see decent gains.

Your in the money with the CSL, but when you switch it will depend on the GT3's buy in.

You people have an inferiority complex or something? The German's are asking moon shot prices!
