@sesvid Год назад

Power/torque vs weight is one thing. But don't forget to consider aero drag, which the GT3 has more of it. This may be the main reason for the M4 being able to catch up with the GT3 on higher straightline speeds.

@Paul-ue8tn Год назад

Porsche are on top of the game in recent years. They just feel like they were designed from the outset to be a sports car, as opposed to a multi platform car that was designed to take the family to the zoo, supermarket, commuting etc as comfortably and cheaply as possible, but with sports car components and performance added to it.

@BrendanEvan Год назад

As long as you could actually get either of these I think the weight alone makes it an easy choice for me! GT3! But I’ve never driven the BMW so who knows for sure

@Gaming_kids699 Год назад

I am just impressed that we can now talk about a bmw and a porsche as real competitors, well done bmw for pushing a normal road car to GT3 standards I would go with the bmw just for its sheer driving pleasure and most importantly ITS A LIMITED ADDITION it may be expensive but compared to the GT3 it has better value for money

@benm.3994 Год назад

Hah the CSL is nowhere even close to the GT3. Limited or not, good luck with getting a GT3. And on the track the CSL will only see the rear end of the GT3 - and not for long

@user-qn6yt3zx3w Год назад

I thought M3 vs GT3 was an age old grudge match. M3’s typically punch beyond their weight and 911’s from the 1996-2008 era were similarly priced in the used car market (thanks to all the m96/m97 engine issues).

@MOTOMAD555 Год назад

Great review! Shame the UK press M4 CSL does not have the proper CSL seats in it. They make a difference (Once set up for you) and are far better than the Porsche "918" buckets, in my opinion (I own both). I don't think anybody would buy a CSL instead of a GT3, I have love how completely different they are to drive. The GT3 disappears around you, and it feels like you're flying along the road, whereas the CSL demands constant thought, mainly managing traction and speed, as on the road it's a LOT faster than the GT3 in real situations like 40 mph out of a tight corner into a short straight where the GT3 will hit 80 mph and the CSL is at 95 mph. Overtaking is more effortless with all the torque and less likely to offend people in the CSL as it is very quiet. The GT3 is much easier on its tires, I took my CSL on track (Thruxton) on worn Cup 2 R's, and it shredded the rears to the canvass in 7 laps, but wow, what a fun seven laps!

great comparison, but you could buy two CSLs for the current market price of a 992 GT3. I think this needs to be addressed, as for $140k US there aren't really many better cars that you can actually buy at that price.

Great review. This may be a comparison of cars, but it certainly is not a comparison of pricing. CSL: $130,000, GT3 spec’s like the BMW? $220,000.

@roadreg1820 Год назад

You’ll pay nearly 200 for a GT3.. that’s if you can get one. People are paying almost double list for them. Not the M4 CSL. Also, the CSL is a limited run.

@HURundSoehneAG Год назад

@@roadreg1820 This sounds pretty particular to the US. In Switzerland, the M4 CSL costs around 244,000 USD fully speced (list price) and the GT3 starts with a base price of 239,000 USD (list price), and yes you can find brand new GT3s at list price at dealers. The US is treated amazingly with list prices for German cars. They literally get all German cars cheaper than the German Market themselves. Just as a reference, the list price for the GT3 even in Germany is 211,000 USD. For even more reference, the starting price of a Turbo S in Germany is 269,000 USD while in the US the starting price is just 216,000 USD.
