ETK shows different numbers for standard M3 & M3 CSL. Would want to cross refer the Sachs numbers.

Whilst I agree, they do have different part numbers I also wonder how much actual difference (if any) there is between the two.
Is this the repeat of... standards M3 200 Cell verses M3 CSL 200 Cell cats with only difference being the part number ?

They have a different part number as you know, would not know about the shocks but the springs are 1 coil less on the front + the rear springs are smaller on a CSL than a standard M3, I am sure somebody will be along to tell us Matt
