Thoughts on M3 CSL?

There are 3 available right now with reasonably low mileage. Do you guys think I though pull the trigger? I wanted to do the turbo conversion I was talking about. Do you see this car becoming a future collectors item?

It's always been an iconic car. Turbo or not, it's just an awesome machine! Do it.

Yes. Light pressure supercharger IMHO for some low end grunt. I have heard (do not know from personal experience) that too much extra power can alter the car's incredible balance and agility. Kind of like the E30 M3. Perfect amount of power for the chassis.

It is bound to become a collector's item, so modifying it may not be the best idea either. Even without extra power it is an awesome machine!!!!
