hey, what kind of watch are you wearing in this video?
How much this car cost?
Sorry for the mistake guys! of course this is a 3.2 and not a 3.0
What was the 100-200 time?
@@olivers.3731 There is a scoreboard in the description for 100-200 kph.
@@arsenal2437 I know but I couldn't find the time of the e46 csl
@@olivers.3731 11,02 s.
This is the point.
No tacky ass pops and crackles; just pure intake, engine and exhaust sound.
Thank God they are so collectable unmodified, otherwise we might see hideous rice-racer-kits like happened to the poor-old Supra.
So sick of people doing muffler deletes and calling it an "exhaust" system. Your engine needs that back pressure, especially N/A engines, turbocharged engines are a lot less dependent. Matter of fact, coming out of the exhaust side of the turbo, you should use as big of a pipe as you can without being ridiculous. Some people just dump it straight out of the hood which sounds like garbage.
@@jesterokjones4954 This car is unmodified.
@@rabidbigdog yes, I know. It's nice to see a bone-stock sports car, especially an E46 M3 CSL! It came from the factory with an intake and exhaust both perfectly tuned for sound and performance. Another car I wouldn't DARE modify is the Lexus LFA with it's Yamaha-tuned intake runners and exhaust, what a thing of beauty!
It is one of those legendary models that we love so much at the beginning of the 21st century and it will undoubtedly remain one of the best sports cars ever produced in its category.
I actually like how it has the standard halogen headlights. It looks kind of cool with the warmer lights. I’m sure it saves a bit of weight with no xenon ballasts, igniters, wiring, etc.
I still lose my heart to the warm-lightcolor halogen headlights. That warm feeling between heart and steel is never wrong! My E90 LCI with Xenon headlights on, has the H8 halogen light source
It doesn't really save any noticeable amount of weight. It's a box ticking exercise above anything else to reach a papered figure they set out and makes no difference to actual performance numbers.
@@RobbieKhan I know lol, I mean they put a cardboard trunk in the back. That’s such a small gain in of itself.
There are some CSLs with Xenon from what I’ve seen but I really kind of like the halogen version better for some reason. Probably because it’s different and classy
@Abstract lmaooo nah don’t get me wrong, I love my HIDs and these crazy LED headlights nowadays, it looks the best. That crisp white powerful beam 💯
The halogen is kind of more inferior but that kind of gives it a different feeling vibe when driving at night. Like calmer and more relaxed. It’s hard to explain what I mean. And you can still see pretty decently, especially if you upgrade to a high performance halogen bulb it’s pretty legit ngl
The Most Beautiful M3. Fluid design lines.
Sporty and Classy 😎
Also the worst sounding M/// car imo, the csl sounds a bit better but the normal e46 m3 sounded like a broken ricer car, too metaly, too raspy and you cant get rid of it.
@@swansmeister this one in the video sounds terrible for me for all the reasons you stated.
This is how a proper straight 6 should sound. By most of the logic here my jetta 5 cylinder sounded better than most sports cars.
A brass tone.
The most beautiful exhaust in the world.
This straight-6 sound is stunning 😍
E46 M3 CSL is epic! My fav!
Those wheels are just incredible
absolutely love this car, i really can't get enough of the E46 3 series. such a classic now days
Bmw e46 is great balanced car even 316 is fun to drive... I can only imagine m3 csl... Thank you for this video
Awesome sounding E46 M3. Great to see the SMG being driven the way its meant to be.
Makes my heart warm that it’s not manual swapped
An all time favourite. 💖 💖 💖
Unique machine… part of the automotive history. I can imagine the happines you get if you can drive it dayly… or in occasional tracks days. Nice!
"is this a very fast car? No."
My brother in christ id KILL for a car that moves like that
Yes! One of the best sounding cars ever made and the greatest M3 of them all.
An iconic legend! Sad that it isn’t a manual though.
It is a manual gearbox. You only have to remove the computer and put the manual stick on it. Look up for that episode on Wheelers Dealers where they convert an regular M3 from SMG to manual.
To be honest, the SMG gearbox from what I've heard just adds to the brutality of the car, and bearing in mind if you do what this car wants you to do (absolutely cane it everywhere)its crude headbanging shifts do seem to make sense. Its not meant to be driven around town in 5th, a little like the Lamborghini ISR gearbox of similar design.
@@stefanp.7986 ..... it is not a manual. yes it's a manual when you take the car apart and modify it, right now it is not a manual. smartass
SMG stands for "Sequentielles Manuelles Getriebe", which means it's a sequential manual transmission or an automated manual transmission.
Together with the first generation of Ferrari sequential transmissions with paddle shift on the steering wheel, this was the beginning of automated sport transmissions and double clutch transmissions in the automotive world for production sports cars. Therefore the CSL should stay the way it is, but not modified by too many idiots in the USA, who really think that changing the transmission and destroying its originality would make it a "better" sports car.
The M3 CSL transmission is still a manual transmission, but shifting gears was automated with a motor.
All these fucking annoying complaints "buhuuuu, it's so so sad it's not a manual" are so fucking boring !!!
Fucking dumb internet!
The truth is: all these shitty complaints about the M3 CSL transmission and gearbox are totally irrelevant, because the E46 M3 CSL is still a fantastic machine, which has become a legend, no matter how "fast or not fast" or imperfect the SMG really is.
It's a known fact, that the SMG isn't that bad, considering the era this sport automatic transmission was introduced. With this car, BMW just tried to bringing some motorsport feeling with a paddle shifting experience for the hardcore M3 fans.
Even for todays standards and compared to very fast and perfectly shifting transmissions like a PDK, the CSL transmission still shifts very decent.
But all these fucking idiots from today on the internet, who aren't stopping ranting about the CSL SMG transmission and who are always measuring the SMG with modern double clutch transmissions, are like fucking dumb little kids..., like fucking annoying cry babies !!
You hear me, smart ass??!
Who would constantly criticize something, which is more than 20 years old, for "not being as sharp" at changing gears as modern sports cars.... ????
Honestly, all these guys are so fucking dumb!
These people always forget, that you just can't judge the E46 M3 CSL this stupid way!
All these idiots, who are dreaming about changing the CSL gearbox into a manual, because of being influenced by this still ongoing idiotic rant on the internet, are fucking annoying.
Very sadly, mostly fucking dumb American smart asses are trying to change the CSL gearbox... What an idiocy!! This speaks for itself!
With all this stupid blah blah "how to change it into a manual", these fucking dumb clowns are damaging the legend of this sports car with their constantly stupid "wish for a manual"!
Here in Germany, the majority of true BMW E46 M3 CSL fans totally RESPECT the fact, that the CSL transmission isn't perfect!
Nobody is discussing "how to change it into a manual", because German BMW fans know very well, that this amazing sports car has to stay exactly the way this car was created!
Nobody here in Germany would destroy the originality of the M3 CSL for "making it perfect" like a modern double clutch transmission experience with a Porsche PDK for example, or even by totally ruining it with a stupid and fucking cheap "transformation" into a car with manual transmission, which wasn't made for the E46 M3 at all!
Of course such a stupid "low tech" modification into a manual would transform the whole car just into an even worse experience!
Why are all these smart asses so fucking annoying???
Who would have the strong wish for "optimizing classic artworks", like famous paintings from some great renaissance painters, by overpainting it with the "taste" of fucking cringe USA hillbillies from today...???
@@user-jf8gd3lv7q what the fuck man
That exhaust and intake note is fabulous. This is the car I was sure I was going to buy when I had money (was I University when this came out). Have money now… and 5 kids… so a couple of Hondas for us 😂
Another great video Max. That S54 engine/exhaust combo sounds incredible. Makes me miss my old M3 convertible. SMG box is flawed, but fun.
Interesting point- you spoke briefly about engine weights; the S65 engine in the E92 M3 is about the same weight- if not lighter than the straight six S54, corollary of it having an aluminium block, as opposed to a cast iron block of the six.
Grande, uno de mis coches favoritos
Gracias por traerlo al canal
Im convinced after this video u have got the best job ever..... that sound mannnn
If I could own just one BMW M car, it would definitely be this one!
me too..
same here i love naturally aspirated engines
I just sold my E46 M3 6MT and replaced it with an F87 M2C DCT. The M2C doesn't sound nearly as good, but it's way more fun to drive than the M3.
It sounds almost like a McLaren F1 😍
S54 is basically a bank of the F1's V12
Its still not like the M1 Procar tho...
McLaren F1 and the BMW M1 Procar have the best intake sounds EVER. (Thank you ITB's)
@@jortepap this also has itbs '
Most beautiful BMW ever built.
my favorite M ever. love that car. Great video, tks
E46 M3 is my favorite car ever wish to own one someday ♥️
Thats a proper M car. Not like the BMW's from today
The actually M5 CS Is one of the most perfect cars in the world.
@@marco26muc It's fast as hell and I like it very much but the sound is terrible and my wife can drive it. The older BMW's sounds proper and are made for good drivers (manual, RWD..)
@@nripaa 🤦♂️
So nice to see how much fun you had with my car👍💪
Stunning car, love the E46 M3 CSL.
Best atmospheric engine ever!
I have been wanting to see this for a long time my favorite E46 CSL ohh my god❤️❤️❤️
I like the sound of everything when it was shut like the doors a nice little clunk
What a car! Gorgeous
My favorite M3. 👍
A perfectly clean example. 👌
The m3 CSL is such a masterpiece of engineering but your watch caught my attention that transparency looks very cool.
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏🏻, And I quote what I read from different sources: The M3 CSL E46 has great looks, great performance and a hardcore limited-run model to boot, the E46 BMW M3 had it all. The fabulous E46 M3 was the last in the line before the model's character changed completely with the introduction of V8 power. CSl E46 M3 has the best straight sex engine ever produced, the engine is the S54 that is a 3.2L engine, produces 355hp originally and 273 ft lb of torque, and sounds like a rasping banshee when pushed to the red line, thanks to the reprofiled camshaft, also because of the carbon air intake, performance headers and the bigger exhaust valves. The E46-generation M3 was already a great car, but with the CSL, the engineers at BMW Motorsport created a modern classic. It might be one of the greatest M3s there's ever been.
That intake sound is just mwah! Chef's kiss!
Classic BEAST WANT ONE OF THIS
My absolute Dreamcar 👍
this car is the definition of a modern classic. just a driving masterpiece.
These older m’s just come across more exciting than the newer ones on video.
Nice to see such a old car in life! :)
that thing is waaay to clean, damn. Awesome car! Thanks for the presentation.
BMW's master piece. Brilliant.
one of my top 5 favourite cars! the e36 M3 3.2 German Spec being my number 1!
Man that thing sounds awesome
I own an 328ci lightly modded with 210hp and i am in love with it... i cant even imagine how it feels to drive and m3 csl
golden classic! super cool car
One of my favorite M cars
I love you M3 CSL...
MAGIC CAR
Max heeft de mooiste videos !
I had the honor and pleasure to do a lap of the Nürburgring! Happiest day of my life!
When ?
Makes all the right noises.. MADD ole car
Ultimate M3 👍
Best Bmw ever.
BEST M3 EVER ALONGSIDE WITH THE E92! aggressive car and aggressive engine that both sounds amazing and delivers and exceptional driving experience, what an amazing car 😍 i would take this over any new BMW.
I have seen a episode on "Wheeler Dealers" when they changed an M3 from SMG to manual, and they said that actually the gearbox stays in place becouse in fact it is a manual , only activated electronically. They did it very simple like a afternoon job with a beer on the side with friends. Ha ha ha.
god what a beautiful car.
That was awesome. I just sold my E46 M3 6MT so it was pretty special to see this video. The CSL was such a monumental car. It would be so cool if it was more easily possible to replace the awful Getrag 420 / SMG with a modern DCT. I think that would change the personality of the car for the better.
The best M3 EVER and will always be
260km/h and you have to be on the slow lane . Germany things:D
Sounds sooooo good....
that's a dream come true for someone
We want more video of this owner with other car if possible , one of the best channel in whole world
Amazing car!
i like that you’re into watches man, beautiful casio GA-2100 u have there mate
for an old car that acceleration is amazing
What a beauty 🔥🔥
This is my dream car even though I'm not so old this car and e39 m5 were the best bmw ever made
Yesterday the V10, now this!!
This car is such a stunning piece of art. Everything about it is just pure sexiness. Such a clean and timeless design.
That sound 🥰
Cool car :) Thank's for show us :)
M5 V10 (E60) has to be mentioned as one of the best too, but E46 is my favorite by far, mention for the E36 tho, legend.
One of the best M3 tmho. ❤️. Now just price getting crazy and I think it’s not over….
Btw when traction control is off, there is another level of shift speed accessible
legendary bmw
Meet the Legend.
I remember from the launch of the e92 m3 v8 the engine is actually lighter then the previous straight 6 m3 engine… so interesting it doesn’t feel that way. The csl is obviously a lot lighter overall! What a sound 😍
Legendary bmw❤️
One of the 10 best cars ever made along with the infamous 3.0 CSL and the 2002.
one of the best m3 s ever made by bmw ...... u need to bring that e36 GT like asap
What a car with a insane sound! One day.
Please do a full review of the M4GTS
Welcome onboard BMW airlines
*Driving pleasure all day and night* Ⓜ️💙
immaculate !!
With a few minor adaptions, this is my dream car rn
fav car
fav clock
ok, all other stuff on pause, muted, etc.....
Cause this just happend !!! 😎👍
PS: I am only on 2 min mark and...... The man is a maniac ! God bless him !
dream car
if i'm not mistaken, the S54 was nominated for best engine from 2001 till 2006, and i couldn't agree more, i would love a blast in a CSL, have driven the 'normal' E46 M3 for 5 years, and that's THE car that got away :s
Pretty sure it won 4 years in a row in the 3-4 litre class
This is my dream car
Apparently lifting the throttle before shifting, like in a traditional manual, makes for a better a smoother shifting feel
This car has such a timeless design back then was the golden era for car industry
The smg gear box is really great. With manual it is nomore csl , please just respect the car. People who change are not fan . You just need to learn how to drive with smg . That gearbox make the car so special .Ad i can tell you , u can be nimble and fast with the smg
Great car 😍❤️👍
