i think they didn't want to upset the enthusiasts so they just threw away the idea... i mean think about it, the normal m3 weighs well over 1600 kg, and that's with the carbon fiber roof and the lighter all aluminium race style engine...i think if they did trim some fat off of it it would weigh around 1500 kg, not very CSL-like IMO, BMW hardcores would kidnap the engineers and demand the marketing men to butt out... but you are right though, bmw is selling out big time
