Have to admit.
That’s the car I really want.

But, at $750k?

You’d have to hate yourself to pay that much.

Can someone explain to me why this car cost 5 times more than the "regular" CSL which already cost twice as much a regular M4?

Exclusivity and its historical significance I guess.

Some of the limited edition models from the 40s and 50s are selling for multiple million dollars, so it’d be natural to presume that this extremely limited production last ICE age celebratory Big Bang send-off will only appreciate from that MSRP.

Pretty but I like the body panels on the 2015 version more.

The owner of the Japanese car posted a driving review on Twitter.



Translated Version:

I have just returned from my first drive in a BMW 3.0CSL that cost 130 million yen. I went from my house to Shinjuku for some errands, and from there I took a U-turn from Gaien to Tatsumi to Wangan to Daikoku, and it was a 100km drive back home. First impression is everything

“I’m insanely tired lol”

On the lower roads, it felt like all the moving things were coming towards me, including pedestrians, bicycles, motorbikes, electric skaters, etc., and when I saw oncoming cars and cars near me, I thought, ``Wow, that's a beginner's mark,'' or ``I'm an elderly person.'' It's a vehicle!'' or ``Times!'' (lol) I was worried about all the dangerous smelling things, and as I tried to escape, I felt a little better as I entered the high speed. However, I was still driving while being more conscious of my position in relation to other cars than usual, but when I found even the slightest open space and accelerated or turned, the car was still light and agile like a razor. He will do it for you. The reason why it feels noticeably lighter than the M4CSL may be due to the large difference between the 8-speed AT and 6-speed MT. And the roll balance is so good that you'll fall in love with it in high-speed corners! If there are no other cars and you are within the legal speed limit, you may not need to step on the brakes at all. It is so stable and highly balanced. What exceeded my expectations was how Spartan it was (^_^ .The reeds were definitely harder than my Green M4 (KW Version 4), and the full-bucket genuine seat had thinner cushioning, making it hard on my lower back. I think my glassy waist and neck are probably at the limit of 300km on this BMW 3.0CSL. The only places you can go to are FUJI and MOTEGI lol

Wow, but I think it's really amazing that we've saved an important cultural property. Even when placed next to the G82M4, which is the base model, the atmosphere is completely different. Especially the wide feeling is amazing. Today, when I got out of the car at the top PA stop, the distance between the right rear wheel and the wall was 2mm. The interior is the same width as the M4, so you can't help but feel like the M4. Please be careful as it is an ultra expensive wheel. But when you think about things like door punching or contact with other cars while parking, you might want to pull closer, so you have to be careful!

First of all, I'm going to ride without worrying about the distance, aiming for 2,000km at the end of my run-in, and from there, I'm going to ride at a pace of 100km a month as instructed by BMW. I also reaffirmed the wonders of TUNINGCAR. Currently, between these two cars, my M4 is overwhelmingly faster and more exciting, and as my alter ego, I really like the finish. The CAE shifts feel better, and the audio quality is about the same as the 1 series and the 7 series. I think this is wonderful, but this BMW 3.0CSL has an overwhelming presence and dignity that completely transcends that. This is the first time I've ever seen a BMW like this. I would like to cherish it! Thank you for reading until the end of this long post. #bmw #Studieag #30CSL
