Haha thanks mate - I think you'd get more than a few stares from fellow passengers with a large carbon bumper on your trolley :hahaha: and probably a few nagging words from your partner if you aren't travelling alone!! I won't put you through that!!

Thanks! About E92 M3...hmm, interesting question. Well to be objective, i think its an excellent car as an overall package. For that money, the performance is quite impressive. And the car is the great compromise. Its extremely comfortable, quiet, you can go to IKEA and transport all the furniture, you can travel 10 hours flat out with no pain in your back.....but at the same time you can distroy an arrogant guy in porsche or aston martin you meet on the road.

BUT.....and there is a big BUT. The car is soul-less. Whist impressivly fast, there is no feeback from it. As if you sit in the sofa and play a game on the playstation. And that is sometimes annoying me a lot.

To compare it with a CSL would not be fair, since the cars are made for completely different purposes. I had a chance to find an amazing mountain road and within 2 hours, I drove both cars up and down many times. I was astonished by CSL's front end grip and the lightness. Later when I went the same route with my E92, you feel the heaviness on a front end. Surprisingly, I found E92 more difficult to drive fast as I am never 100% sure what the car will do. It feels very disconnected from the road.

What are your thoughts?
