New video! The last combustion-only M car vs the very best one. Which comes out on top?
and M2 at some point in the future, for sure. There’s a link between E46 and G87, too, as end-of-era cars. The CSL was the ultimate naturally aspirated, straight-six M car, the configuration most famously associated with the Motorsport BMWs; 30 years of them reached their zenith with the grey car. And now we have the final non-hybrid M car, with everything from now on to be electrified; not the final version , but a pretty significant milestone nonetheless.
So there was some excitement. And perhaps because of that, perhaps because of the cult status, and perhaps because of the values now attached, driving an E46 CSL was a mixed bag. Of course, the engine is utterly sensational, a reminder of just how intoxicating a great atmospheric power unit can be; 360hp still feels fast 20 years later, and the throttle response is out of this world. The sound will live with me for a very long time indeed.
But, objectively speaking the CSL is some way short of perfect. Adult me was a little disappointed; 13-year-old Matt was devastated. The SMG really hasn’t aged very well at all - it takes all of three auto gearchanges to understand why these are being swapped out for a manual, seemingly in their droves. You can get around its flaws, but what a shame this couldn’t have come from the DCT era.
