Cheers all. I have always known about and loved the csl but thought I could live with 'just' an M3. Then one day I spotted this car only a few miles away, and there could only be one conclusion after the first test drive the thing is there is no bad review for the csl, fifth gears Tiff needel old youtube video, Jeremey Clarksons Isle of man film......countless mag reviews, all positive. It's obvious the car is so special when you drive it (and look at it), and I thought my standard M3 was one hell of a car but it's actually quite tame compared to a csl.
I can justify selling my beloved Mexico by the fact I'm replacing it with something very special and equally collectable. Roll on next Wednesday |

Lovely looking car. It was the same for everyone, 'greater than the sum of it's parts' about describes it. You've got to hand it to BMW for making them. (now....just don't damage a flipper....we still don't have a supply chain up and running yet) |

congraz. Now put an aftermarket exhaust on it. I found after installing a Agency V2 rep that the car breaths better and the blips sound like heaven. Enjoy, its a fab car.
