Default M3 CSL pictures and info

bmwnation with great M3 CSL info: "...The new M3 CSL weighs in at 1,295 kg, a full 200 kg lighter than the current production M3. The weight savings came from the use of exotics materials used in construction of an all new body. The roof, doors, trunk and front bumper all use carbonfiber as the building material. Inside, the standard seats have been replaced with light weight racing seats while the glass around the car has been replaced with a lightweight, thinner glass. Steel has been replaced by honeycomb fabric further improving the weight while increasing safety... At the heart of the M3 CSL is BMWs classic 6 cylinder engine tuned by the M division to 370bhp, increasing the output by 27bhp. This represents a significant increase in the power output, with 0-60mph times approaching 4.5 seconds..." (more)<ul><li><a href="http://www.revvinghigh.com">http://www.revvinghigh.com</a</li></ul>

Default they should have put all the carbon fiber M3 skin on top of a Z06 - would have been cheaper & faster

and handle better!
