Exactly... that 7:50 M3 CSL Sport Auto time wasn't touched by the 1M, the F10 M5, E90M3 and will be tough for the new M3/4 to beat. Even the E92 M3GTS had a Sportauto time of 7:48. M235i is impressive, but let's not kid ourselves, is not the track-carver that the CSL is on more demanding tracks.

I strongly suspect the CSL tires were wayyy too old , and the driver was overly cautious bc of the rarity of the vehicle . Let's get real here the M235 is a good car but it's no CSL .
