I see the CSL as more of a halo, collectible trinket with which BMW can demonstrate how far it can stretch the 3/4 series platform, and in that context it's impressive. But it's never going to be as purposeful around a track as a GT car.
I agree, it's not the fairest comparison. However, it's a UK test and in the UK, the prices are about the same (ADM aside). The best part, though, is that at GBP 130,000, the GT3 is now cheaper there than here because of the dollar!
