Less money in your bank.
Pork on the drive
If your rich enough to be able to not worry about binning a gt3 in the barriers then you will have more fun.
If your not rich enough for the above, keep the Csl because it will more fun

Plus a car that is de-valuing

All of the above + the regret of selling a CSL? (Which seems to be a common theme) Which I suppose is why 15 Months after buy a GT3 the CSL is still here...

Fantastic car and if you have the itch, scratch it. You could always buy back the CSL in two years for more money once you realised you've made a mistake

I'd love one. But I think I would barely use it, whereas I use the CSL quite a lot in the summer and use = fun.
It's a lot of car to be sat in the garage.

Im so not attracted to porsche its amazing. Here in München every 4. car is a porsche. if a 911 turbo or a gt3 pass me by i dont give a shit for it i just walk on, im not amazed cause its boring, its not unique at all. Not to mention all really sound like a plastic bucket which you constantly beating with a big stick.
As for the CSL i have seen only one in Münich on the road in 5 years and that was at BMW Group at Max Diamand Strasse. It had the M KW 4087 license plate which was one of the press cars. Anyway you should have seen people reaction when it passed on the road, it was like "hey theres the legendary car the best M". All im saying is that the CSL is a much more unique special car then a gt3 imo.

hehehe - when I was at the ring, people were having the same reaction when a CSL went pass. (Sorry was in a rental from RSR, so wasn't mine ) No reaction when the porkie went by. Nearly every other car was a Porkie.

But still, a 991 GT3 is on the cards. BYE BYE GTR!!!
