Nice, but then so's the rest of the motor.




Did I just admit to liking a Beemer?

Is it a CSL (Going by the bonnet, can't quite see the roof in enough detail to work out if it's c/f), or a lookalikey?


...and am I showing myself up for a complete lack of Beemer knowledge? All I know was gleaned from TG

All E46 M3s have the that bonnet bulge.

CSLs only came in silver or black, the majority of them been silver.

The way to tell (from the front) is the carbon splitters and a large hole in the N/S for the bumper where the fog light should be, for the cold air feed, oh and the carbon roof when pictures allow.

Yep

E46 M3 - 342bhp

E46 M3 CSL - 362bhp

The CSL is a lot lighter than a standard M3, think of it as the "RA" version of the M3.
