Launched in 2003, the Coupe, Sport, Lightweight BMW M3 was the best possible M3 you could get. Using revolutionary, lightweight materials, like Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic and super-light alloys, the car’s weight was reduced, making this M3 one of the best ever made.

10 years after it was launched, the CSL M3 is still one of the BMW Community’s favorites and most appreciated cars. That’s why BMW decided to celebrate the 10th anniversary in a more special way.

Over 50 CSL owners from all around Europe drove down to BMW Welt, in Munich to celebrate. The gathering brought together some of the best M3s around and their most passionate drivers. 

The success of this model is not due only because of its superfast times around the Nurburgring or because of the amazing agility it displays on any road but also to the fact that you can actually use this car as a daily driver.

Florian Staiger, Development Engineer Team Member for the BMW M3 was there and gave an insight to what made the CSL so successful. Watch him and the owners talk about the E46 M3 in the video below.
