300 lbs (Very likely seeing the E46 M3 CSL was 370 lbs lighter than the standard E46)
350 ft-lbs (No way in hell since it is a high-revving car that emphasize flat torque curves plus the car does not have enough displacement to make that much peak torque even if it is tuned to come in at 7000 rpm. For example, the ALMS M3 GT-R makes 500 HP and 370 ft-lbs@6500 rpm. For the production CSL, it could be more than likely 320 - 330 ft-lbs around 6500 - 6800 rpm at the very best.)
