Manual csl in estoril blue.

I thought you'd have gone with the 'Ring' riders, to show off your shirt, Adem, Matt and the rest of the gang, that took the detour route to the venue? Not like you to have missed out on a TD. :smokin:

Did the ring in the morning before driving onto Saltzburg :-D

All was not lost then! Someone made it, looks like one of the locals
Good job I didn't put that on the shirt sleeves - ha, ha!

Virtually everyone from england went to munich, via the ring, the pistonklause on friday night was like bloody macdonalds with all those saaavan accents :finga:

+1 never tried this type of box before but just love it on the CSL :thumbs:

My CSL is my 4th SMG, First in a E36 Evo, which occasionally spat out into neutral, and second in my Imola Individual Prototype, that sadly broke after 20K of hard driving and 2 track days.

Then more success in my last E46 M3 Individual, ironically in Estroril Blue. That was a good box, that survived the life of my ownership even though I took it on a quick track day.

The CSL box seems very similar to my standard M3, but having a slightly lighter car and less sound proofing means that you feel and hear the aggressive gear changes when the CSL wants to change in a hurry.

For my the SMG is what makes the car, as I'm not a fan of manually changing gear on a manual gearbox, I prefer to let the car do it, although its a complicated system I do agree, but form me its worth the risk.

Me too ;0) Damn body parts letting you down as you get older ;0( The blips on the downshift alone should tempt most people :wink:

Nah dude, Its the traffic here in Bahrain. I would love to get a car with MT if I lived in Europe or the States etc but not here in Bahrain. Too small and too many cars = congestion everywhere.

[jonnysideways]

I see ;0), for me the local motorways get jammed up on most home journeys, so the Auto action helps the Knee ;0)
