M6 Csl
Has anyone else heard the roumers of the M6 CSL? I've heard a price tag of 75 thousand pounds and 0-60 in 3.5 seconds.

Anybody have any info/pictures?

0-60 in 3,5 seems a bit optimistic for a car as big as the 6-er (even if it's a CSL with sticky tires)

I can't find any pictures yet, but all of the sources say it is set for production in 2007. It is expected to have a lightweight body (obviously) which reduces weight, and there is to be a power boost of 50 bhp. My original source was wrong, 0-60 will take 4 seconds or less, and will have a limited top speed of 155mph. And an unlimited top speed of 200mph+.

It was mentioned in a previous CAR magazine that the M6 would be offered as a 'low-calorie' CSL model in 2007..... up to 200kg to be stripped out....the V10's displacement goes up to 5.5 litres, boosting output to 550bhp.... 0-60mph close to 4 seconds.

i dont think their will be an CSL version foe the M6 the light weight is already used for the M6 and if their is gona be a CSL Version i dont think it will only gain 50 HP so it will be able to hit the 60mpn in 4 sec i beleive it must be stronger

I think there will be a M6 CSL. Maybe even a M5 CSL.

No, I don't think there will be a big M5 CSL to go with the M6's.

This means the M6 CSL will cost us in the states at least $100K+ so it better be d*mn good.

Probably a competitor for the SL65 AMG.

Your previous post made no sense at all.
