Different strokes for different folks, not every BMW owner would want a Porsche!

I know a fair few people who have both. They are both well engineered cars with a great history.

In this day and age you don't buy a CSL because it's the best track toy or has the best kit. You buy it because you want a CSL. The GT4 won't change that.

It may be a great car, quick and fun to drive, but I would not be seen dead in one.
