Oh I don't know mate but if the Business is paying for it, then surely it's a no brainer.
Owning the CSL though, I don't think I could bring myself to own an E9x M3 as well. My sensible head would say have a 335d Touring, but I don't know if I could walk past the CSL every day to get to the oil burner.
It's a Toughy, but you're in a good position and I'm sure your decision would be the wrong one.
Nice spec of motor, not fancy the Red leather though? Or is that getting a bit too long in the tooth now?

Really nice cars.
In my recent brain racker, I had 3 cars on shortlist....
Gtr
M3 e9*
C63 amg
I have had many an amg and work on the fuckers everyday.
The BMW m3 was neck and neck with the gtr, then i test drove a gtr and the hooligan in me made the decision.
I will own one in the future and my mate max from car planet racing has one of the nicest ones around. Their custom exhaust which evolve sell sounds divine.
They are also running 460bhp with full exhaust and map,
The new m3 has quite a bit more grunt than the csl too,
I noticed a considerable difference at spa between the 2, against my porsche 996tt.
Whether it will be as good on track?t

I'd definately not use the M3 saloon for track and I am keeping the CSL for sure.
The 335i is the first non-M car I've had as an everyday hack for quite a while and I'm really starting to miss them. It's a great car and the engine is brilliant but the handling is not too sharp and feels very spongey. The M3 saloon is a cracking motor speced the way I want it and will still make a practical family tool. It'll stay standard as well. With EDC and M-dynamics it can be set for gentle cruise with the family or sharpened up for a blast. It's next to silent on the motorway.
I'm almost sold on the idea, can you tell?:hahaha: It's only my sensible head holding me back at the moment.:whistle:

I had the same idea to exchange the 325i with an M3 sedan.
So we went and drove one.
Nice car, it looks nice and it's fast.
I wasn't able to justify to myself the extra cost of this car over our full-extra 325i E90...
I do prefer an RS4, the RS4 sedan has blown me off.
The M3 is good... but high fuel consumption, high running costs and nothing special (my personal opinion) at the end of the day.
Especially the interior design is very wrong.
Expect 12.5 lt/100km with speeds of 130km/h (where the CSL spends 9lt/100km)...

My daily drive is a B7 RS4 in my opinion it is a perfect combo with the CSL . Maybe it is not as fast as a e9x M3 but it is a better highway cruiser/ family car . The interior is also much nicer .Originally posted by alexk View PostI had the same idea to exchange the 325i with an M3 sedan.
