Lexus LS430 - family car / barge sorted. 4k
Any cheap scooter 1k
500bhp Subaru Impreza 10k
Leaves you with another 15k for hookers and blow.
Not interested in a derv, about the only thing left might be a convertible. Pick up a cheap MX5 and drive it into the ground, while keeping the balance of cash on hand for "incidentals".

Is a CSL really that much better than a standard E46 M3 though?

I think the magazines think it is, I've driven neither so can't comment. I think the E46 M3 is a cracking car if you want a high performance daily driver but the CSL is 20% more focused and to take an E46 up to that spec will cost you a shed load. The carbon fibre roof idea is the nuts and those wheels are gorgeous. And if you spend 25k on one you'll lose less in depreciation than spending 12k on a regular one - if you lose at all. Its all in the details and the CSL has so many great ones . Shame about the gearbox though
The CSL is much better on the track and you can extract some of that feel on the road. It feels like a much lighter car but with the power of an M3.As for the gearbox, the SMG makes the M3 great and on a track, its the only logical choice.
