Oh woe, oh terrible day, word comes down from Bavaria that the distilled essence of BMW, the 470 HP 2010 BMW M3 CSL has been canceled. BMW's head honcho at the M division, Ludwig Willisch told CAR Magazine "Based on current numbers, there is most likely insufficient demand for the M3 CSL." So there you have it, straight from the speedmeister's mouth. No symphony of lightness and power, no Germanic motoring nirvana, no CSL. Adding insult to injury, the M division will instead focus it's efforts on the X5 and X6. [CAR via [eGMCarTech]
