I'll choose the M3 CSL because it's the best ever built in NA era, just the 100 kilos diet compared to the normal version gives a dream drivers car. The manual conversion unleashes the true potential and saves a lot of money in future maintenance.

I absolutely love the M3 CSL. It's really on a diet. And the sound is fantastic.

"the whole car comes together! its the ultimate driving experience!" that is why the e46 is a living legend - every thing in that car is designed for that car with a type of quality, prestige and purpose you do not find anymore.. the E46 is too good of a car to keep BMW making money- since then planned obsolescence, cheap plastic, less attention to detail ... BMW needs to continue driving up revenue & having a true ultimate driving machine would keep people too satisfied and unwilling to buy a new car. E46 was the last of a generation

The M156 6.2 V8 is probably the best V8 ever made. I am a huge BMW M Fanboy, but previously owned a W204 C63 and the engine is epic. The C63 Black is my favourite AMG car.

Love both cars!! They're so different that it's wrong to compare them indeed. But I will say this: the CSL's looks and especially the exhaust sound puts a huuuggee smile on my face!

Nice review Matt. Those B roads look like a lot of fun. I recently reviewed the M3 CSL alongside the M2 CS and was surprised, like you, at how entertaining it was. I owned one back in 2010/2011 and didn't fall in love with it then, but cars have got a lot heavier over the last 10 years! I'd be interested to try it with the manual box. I owned a C63 BS in red with comfort spec and loved the engine, but found the suspension way too firm to use as a daily driver. Happy New Year gents.

Good work Matt 👍🏻 Great presenter with bags of enthusiasm and knowledge. Really enjoyed that thanks alot. CSL all day long for me and with a manual conversion WOW

The natural rival to an e46 csl 6m is an nsx r. Both manual, both port-injected 3.2L 6 cylinders both peerless, timeless legends on chassis that transcended everything before them mated to bullet-proof powertrains than sonically escalated towards 8000 with a measured yet relentless escalation that will never be sensed again..

It's for all the reasons that he gave for both cars being great machines that I own the E46 M3 as well as the 335i N54 tuned. I love the M3 for it's handling, excellent weight distribution and chassis. The 335 for it's massive power and straight line performance. The best of both worlds. I'd love to have a Mercedes C63 or 65 or E55 etc with those fantastic V8's but my pocket book can only stretch so far.

Unfortunately CSL is too expensive for me, but recently I've bought a manual e46 m3 coupe and the sensation that car gives in a b road are similar as descripted in this video, car seems alive. Not easy to find a car like this one today. Congrats for the video, I've seen it several times ;)

There is a great company in UK called Eventuri they produce carbon intake and carbon air box that creates an induction noise similar to factory m3 worthwhile upgrade

Cool Comparison, especially since I have an E46 M3 with some CSL goodies and a C63 W204 Estate. I recognise the shooting location as I took the M3 on a road trip around Bala Lake and North wales a few years ago!

I'm surprised how slow the upshifts on the C63 are. My 2008 ISF is considerably quicker to shift up and rev matches better on the down also.

I have a silver grey manual e46 m3 no sunroof, I’ve owned it now for many years, genuine csl wheels and I’ve always flirted with the idea of going bootlid and bumper, possibly just wrapping the roof carbon look. But not sure it’s all a bit cheesy and will probably never commit to do it, that being said a csl airbox and 100cell cats is a must.

I'll have both!!❤❤

great stuff! anyone nows where these roads are?

save weight but include power windows for the small rear windows?

M3 sounds so much better, M3 all day long.. and yes i do have one.

These were the days

I had the chance to buy the C63 AMG for $40k about 6 years ago here in San Francisco. I really regret not buying it. Instead I found a 1999 C43 AMG. It’s a fast rocket for a small car.
