e92 M2 -> CSL

Considering the move and would like to hear other experiences. Pros and Cons are pretty balanced. E92 is more of a compromise between road and track and great at both, although it is my second car so I don't really need that element. CSL should depreciate slower and behave better on track but is 10 years old.

Anyone made the switch? or other other way for that matter.

I've driven them both (for a few thousand miles each), and I'd have the e46 CSL over the e92 M3 any day.

I sold my 6 mth old E92 M3 in early 2008 as I spotted a 3k miles 04
CSL for sale locally privately. It only took me a moment to decide I
needed to have the CSL.

Luckily a few days later the BMW garage that supplied my E92 agreed to buy it back for a semi reasonable amount.

As a car to take out of an evening or at the weekend the CSL hit the spot
to a much much greater degree, esp if it had been a few days or a week or so between drives. You 'climb' into the fixed seat, fire it up, and then trundle out of town as it warms up, heading for the countryside before the induction is unleashed.

Both are great cars but the CSL is really something special.

Thanks, on that basis, and the fact that I can always buy another E92 should I so wish in the future. I think my mind is made up.
