The BMW 3.0 CSL GR.5 was introduced in 1972 as a homologation model for FIA's European Touring Car Championship, where it also became successful in many races.

The rear spoiler of the car was included with the purchase of the CSL, but wasn't installed because it would have been illegal to use on German roads.

Overall Performance[]

The BMW 3.0 CSL GR.5 has a stock top speed of 261 km/h (162 mph) which is slightly above average for Class C. It's acceleration is very strong for its class - a result of very powerful lower gears as well as strong higher gears. The nitrous output is also very powerful. The handling of the GR.5 is also exceptional. When turning, it is very agile and very responsive, grips very well and it will hardly understeer.

In Team Escapes and Pursuit Outruns, it performs well as the GR.5 is heavy. Crashing through roadblocks shouldn't be a problem, and since the handling is very grippy and responsive, it can easily dodge rhinos. Its powerful acceleration also helps in outrunning police interceptors, as well as recovering from collisions.
