e46 m3 csl
Guys, i have a e90 m3 with dct, and used to have a 46normal m3 smg,
i sold the e46 4yrs ago, and had the e90 for 2yrs now, Honestly i miss the e46 so much, especially the SMG gearbox, it feels like E-gear. with the "BANG" when u shift. I mean the DCT is just too smooth, i have manage to find a E46 CSL 2004with only 10K miles on it, a real perfect car. for a reasonable price Test drove it as well, mint condition!!! I am thinking of collecting the car as a collection of E46, as i started playing/modding cars at E46, Anyone got any comment on that? (it will be my 3rd car for collection/ and rarely track) not DD |

Buy the CSL and keep it stock. Will be worth more in the future if you leave it alone.
CSL is hot!!

Is it Silver Gray or black? If it's SG, I'd take it in a heartbeat. |

it is grey,
Yeah, if i am going to buy it, i will only put BBK on, and RE11, but do u guys think it is a nice car to collect? or should i save it for something else. another concern is the maintenance, my old M3 just keep giving me problems, i fixed it for million times and spend lots on it for the ownership of 3 years. has anyone here got a CSL that could feedback me???? Many thx |

Edit: As for a collector car, I think it is a very special M3. In terms of other special M3's, a Euro model E36 with larger displacement of which I believe only 240 were made would also be a special E36 to own, but nothing like the CSL. I believe that it would fetch top dollar in the future once it becomes a classic, to which it already is in some circles.

I've got a E46 M3 and my father has got a CSL. The difference is that the M3 is a race horse but the CSL is a thoroughbred. It just eggs you on to drive it that much harder than the M3.
As everyone else says, leave it standard, they are a true collectors car. Oh, and get a black one too  |
