Don't even try to dare me, cause I'll do it!

I think there is a big misunderstanding of what both of us are saying. I do not disagree with you at all since I do not know anything about this M3 "CS". All I am trying to say that a regular production model can become something completely different by drawing a parallel with the M3 GTS. However, I'm 99.9% sure this is not a CRT. I'm also a very skeptical person, before I saw the buildsheet my "bullshit meter" was going off the scale regarding Gatte's posts. But so far, everything he said adds up. Could be a lucky guess, but I doubt it.

Sorry, misunderstood your original post.

Highly unlikely, cause look at this

3W91 - F80 M3 CRT S55B30T0 ECE
3W92 - F80 M3 CRT S55B30T0 RHD
3W93 - F80 M3 CRT S55B30T0 US


I'm sure ynguldyn can confirm it.
