    5th Gear M3 GTS

    Anyone else see this? VBH was mad on it and couldn't even decide between that and GT3RS:hahaha:, times seem to tell a different story though. Have I missed something?

      Something doesn't add up... I too have seen times which suggest it only being marginally quicker than a CSL but judging from VBH's tone :smt055:smt055 one would assume this thing is much quicker than we've been lead to believe - certainly looks that way from the vid..

      BTW i also recall the new Gayman R being slightly quicker as well - does anyone know what rubber the GTS was running for this test?

        I've yet to see anyone being that impressed by M3csl e46.

        Something definitely doesn't add up here in regard to race track times... CSL vs GTS.

        What tyres did the GTS run on when it set 7.48 ring time?

        Better chassis, much more power... how can it only be 2 seconds faster?

            Probably because it weighs sooooooooo much :whistle:

              It looked and sounded, fucking awesome IMO

              And I reckon it is slowly starting to show a bit of purpose.
              It certainly looked like she was creaming her knickers driving it:smokin:

                Not much more than a 1450kg CSL or whatever the real weight is.

                Even being on cups +, had it been on CSL cups tyres, the time might have been low 7.40s IMO I'm not an expert on racing though. :gayfight:

                    ]If they where both 30k which would you buy

                    I know the CSL wouldn't get a second glance

                    Regardless of times it WILL be a far superior car in every way. You can tell just from that vid that it would be an occasion every time you drive it


                    But for us mere poor folk the CSL is far far better for us

                        you've seen Vicky getting orgasmic, haven't you? :hahaha:

                        and so was Valentino if i am to believe rumours... :hahaha:

                        Looks aside (and i really like the e92 M3 - mini - me M6) There's no doubt GTS is vastly superior car compared to CSL. Let's not even argue about this here. Chasis, gearbox, engine, electronics!!

                              But you could just get the competition one and blow the other 60k on hookers when you want to feel good :smt102
