I know, great isn't it No more worrying about if it breaks, and if it does, it's straight to the dealer for a warranty claim

love these, especially the black ones. Quality is so good, door cards in carbon are damn fine. Got to say fair play on getting such a nice car. Such a complete package of a car

Excuse me for being thick (or a flid as porkie called me) but whats the difference between the M3 and the M3 CSL?

Much of a price difference?

AWESOME looking car tho mate!

Brand new they are £20k more. Basically - carbon roof, centre console and door cards, carbon air box, extra 15 or so horsepower so 355bhp, wider track and different suspension geometry and its approx 100kgs lighter depending on spec. Purpose of car is to be light. Aircon, cd etc are optional extras instead of std. Fibreglass bucket seats and so on
