so you can have a CSL. and not one of those clones that are so popular in the states.
you can never match, no matter how much work you do to a normal M3, a CSL in terms of its handling and response.

There is a way to get a CSL into the US, although I'm not exactly going to be spouting my mouth of on how to exactly achieve that.

Like I said, I'm not ready to say what my idea would be.
