I saw several one day at the Nurburgring. Probably the most over-rated, over hyped production car ever. They're not even that much faster than a regular M3, they're just popular because its been featured in Need For Speed games and a few movies here and there.

I chose the 507.

What movies have featured the M3 CSL?

I ended up picking the 3.0CSL.

I am biased. The E30 M3. Ahead of its time on so many levels and almost an instant track star.

Yeah, I have no idea what he's talking about. Along with what you said, the street spec M3 GTR was in Forza 2, the race spec was in Need for Speed Most Wanted (blue and white decals), and the regular E46 M3 was in Need for Speed Pro Street and Undercover and Forza 2. I only know of the CSL to be in Gran Turismo 4

And a Camaro SS ran a faster lap time than an s2000 in road and track I believe. So what...

FYI the Alpina ran that lap time, not a regular Z8. It also did it in the sloppiest most ridiculous unmannered fashion. Do not tell me a car like that one is the most desirable BMW.

your Camaro comparison is ridiculous, whats your point.

also, where did I state the Z8 is the most desirable BMW?

my point, as stated, is that Jeremy compared the Z8 handling to a GARBAGE TRUCK... literally, and bashed it the entire review... yet it posted the same lap time as a Lamborghini Murcielago. My post simply states Jeremy went way overboard in how supposedly "bad" the Z8 is, you dont post a lap as fast as a Murcielago if its done in the sloppiest most ridiculous unmannered fashion, you're as bad as Clarkson.

try again.

I saw the car on the track, it was a hot mess. That's all that matters. IM SPENCER said Z8 hands down.

3.0CSL! I put the E30 M3 a close second though. I'd like to know what crackheads think the M6 rates that high, or that the Isetta doesn't take last place. Screwy....
