CSL

The CSL Edition

Following on from a long line of previous CSL models launched by Munich, the M3 CSL was born a classic. Released with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tyres that don't work in the rain and a 250 km/h speed limit that could be raised to 280 km/h upon presenting a C racing licence, a simply uprated car this was not. Featuring the S54B32HP (High Performance) engine exclusive to the CSL, this produced 17 bhp more than the standard M3 due to goodies such as the motorsport carbon airbox that along with the thin-walled exhaust system will warn a CSL is on its way before you see it. The modest power hike came hand in hand with the 110 kg weight reduction, bringing the CSL meaning true to its name, Coupé, Sport, Lightweight.
