Advice on csl or cs ?

Agree with all of the above! :thumbs:

Go CSL every time, but then again, I think you might be on the wrong site if you want convinced to buy an M3. Or maybe this is intentional.

"Look sweetheart, all these guys are telling me to buy the CSL, its must make sense"

I had an M3 for 6 mths, then got the CSL - there's no comparison at all, and the CS isnt that far away from a Normal M3.

Awesome is the only way i would describe a CSL, the normal M3 ... boring.


You wont regret it :beer:

I had the same dilemma as you, i "thought" i needed heated leather seats, satnav, HK upgrade, bluetooth etc....

I was hunting for a good std M3 but came across the CS, on further digging i found a CSL. It had never crossed my mind that i could pick up an older CSL for the price of a newer CS.

I have alawys wanted cars that are a little special - like your V6 Clio. Never test drove a CS or std M3 went straight for the CSL and never looked back - as been said AWESOME NOISE :119: :drool:

I took a lad out in my CSL who was looking to buy a CS.

20mins with me and he bought a CSL!!!!! :-D

And I think from the amount of people , who sell , then jump back into a second or third one speaks volumes , and those that move from porsche's into CSL's also :-D

I had my Std M3 for 2 years , and wanted a 911 , mate had a CSL , drove one ... and it was all over for me :hahaha: :hahaha: :smt057

If you want an event then the CSL isn't for you, the Vee has more presence and character by a mile...

I would never pick a CS over the CSL, i'd feel like half baked wannabe that it is...

The CSL is the best car i have ever owned, each journey is enjoyable, the noise and handling, ive always tried to choose different cars, before this i had an R34, drove a standard M3 and didn't really feel that different, the CSL felt perfect though, love the interior, BMW quality with carbon fiber everywhere. I use mine as a daily driver and love it, don't find the suspension too harsh either.
Ive always fancied a Clio V6 though, which one do you have? the Mk 1 or 2

Defo CSL!

Never been in a CS but looking at them etc no question CSL all the way! :notworthy:

I've seen some great deals on GT3s - get one of them, you don't need 4 seats judging by your current car.

Heard of a MK2 going for 31k from an independent dealer! That is an utter bargain.

James,

I have the Mk2 Clio V6. Its a great car, really stands out and sounds great. The ride is very harsh tho, brakes arent good either and its a bit basic inside. Think a Csl wont stand out as much but the driving factor will be much better which is the main thing. Those seats and steering wheel look beautiful Shows real racing purpose in my opinoin....

[CSLjimmy]

Nice, always liked the look of the Mk 2, saw one recently and nearly broke my neck looking at it lol, You will love the CSL though :smokin:

JAmes.
