Is that a current CSL on the left side of the pic? It looks like it has the current CSL front splitter and the current CSL's carbon fiber roof on it?

It's most likely not a CSL, because the car has the regular M3's front bumper with what appears to be an aftermarket splitter. The roof is just painted black I guess.

E.g., the CSL doesn't even have foglights (only an air-intake on the left side) and the CSL's CF front splitter is two-piece and kinda integrated into the front bumper.

That AC S3 CLS is sick BTW!

Thanks very very much ! Yes, I'm very proud to get my hands on one !

Um.... the handling is too sweet ... won't do anything to it .. cos don't want to spoil the handling character. Somehow, I've tuned many BMWs myself including my E36 M3 race car and the M Roadster race car ... have to admit it does not give as much sweet and solid handling character as what AC had done to this CLS.

Not going to do anything to the engine also cos that'll spoil AC's cam and ECU tweek.

What I'll do is probably changing the final drive to a shorter one, a spare set of lighter and 17" wheels and also a very light flywheel and clutch. All these to increase the performance and yet won't spoil AC's craftmanship.

No, it's not a CSL. It's just an M3 with the ACS front splitter, CSL rear diffuser and yes, painted roof. Think I want to sell that off, get a real CSL and paint it white.

That is a very very nice car. I remember reading about it like 10 years ago!
The kid seat in the back is awsome. Do you have any "smaller" friends you could strap back there? Congrats!

Thats by FAR the best widebody out there. Plus to have it OEM is priceless. You are a very lucky man.
