P.S.

I was under the impression that the SMG in the CSL shifted quicker than a stock M3 wih SMG. Is this not the case?
A small revision to my P/W, I think we were both wrong. I think I used an inaccurate weight spec above.

Audi USA web site 3957/420 = 9.4
CSL 3054/360 = 8.5

Could the Audi be significantly lighter in the EU?

Evidence that SMG II shifts in .2-.25 seconds here. By the way I have posted this link and referred to it quite a few times.
