*NEW* BMW M5 CSL

Celebrating 25 years of the world's greatest sport sedan.

And no you cannot have one. They are only making one as a showcase.

Here are some numbers

Same V10 bored out to 5.5L
600 or more hp
400 or more lb/ft
laps the Green Hell in 7:50, a regular M5 does 8:13 (cadillac cts-vat?).

http://www.bmwblog.com/2009/10/30/ph...on-bmw-m5-csl/

A great tribute to a not particularly good looking or easy to use, but supremely practical, fast, ferocious, king of the track and the road - the BMW M5

Look at the tires. Stock M5 = shit tires, this M5 is on semi-slick tires. I cant believe they did all this work and left it at that ridiculous ride height and didnt dial in a bunch of front camber. Lower + 3 degrees of camber = magic BMW go fast formula.
