Just grabbed it and watched it, what a excellant car. The standard M3 is amazing but the CSL takes it to a new level. I think between the gt3 and the csl in the dry, the csl would win, by a hair at that.
And regarding the stig, is it really a new stig or are they just trying to make seem like the old stig is gone?

Sweet ass car, not necessarily a fan of the normal M3 but this one is SICK.
Listen to that thing!!, but i wish BMW put more into it for how expensive it is. Cardboard in the trunk!!!! WTF is that shit, come on use your F1 experience and build 80% of the panels out of carbon fiber. Plus as JC pointed out, all the ludicrous buttons, Traction control (Dont need; its a track car right!!), SMG, rather have a BMW 6 speed everyone praises. Anyway sweet video and im confused with the whole stig thing? Thanks for the video Jabba

Although its the first M3 CSL video review i have seen, i have to say it not so great. i think topgear focused way more on the isle of mann than the CSL. It does have a beautiful sound for sure and looks absolutely astonishing but Topgear is a dulled down programme lately and so are the reviews.
worth the download but you wont be blown away.
I cant believe im saying this, but tiff is a better reviewer than jeremy lately.
[disclamer] i'm pissed [/disclamer]

great video
i love the sound of the exhaust,, is simply amazing
m3 csl is actually not that great at all... the only reason it corners that well is due to the almost slick tires. on paper it suppose to be a faster car with 160+kg lighter and 15-20hp+ gain, but in reality, the acceration is almost identical to the regular stock m3
i would rather modd the hell out of my regular m3, and probably would be faster, and could possibly handle almost the same, maybe not as good, with the dinan supension
