Honestly, I stumbled across your channel looking for a video on gold GTD. the content was absolutely class. Same for all the other vids. I’m surprised you haven’t blown up in the car community. Highly professional, passionate and has great video quallity. I can tell you put so much time and effort into these & they are all class. Keep up the hard work got a good feeling Imma be here in a few months/years and see this page grow into somthing big. Class content keep up the hard work!
facts
I did the same looking for leon cupra videos, now I’m watching reviews for all different cars😂
What i like about your reviews are they are very informative and you drive quite responsibly unlike alot of other channels
Great review. I’m about to ‘downgrade’ my 50k RS4 for one of these. The Audi is numb, and I’ve come to realise ICE cars peaked a few years back. The G80 is objectively a better car but it does nothing for me.
agree.. felt the same about G80, it's zero emotion
Another great video, I really do enjoy watching your reviews 👍
Lovely new series you’ve started 😏
What a real and nice review man! Love it
I like the normal m3 but feel in love with the competition after being in one
21:40 haha, exactly
Hard to come by but would be great to see a comparison to an Alpina B3
Great review
Does this m3 have Opf / gpf? (Generally 68 plate onwards) sounds quiet unless the videos not doing it justice?
Needs sum vids showing the performance of this thing. Does it have a crank hub fix on it? Im looking at get a comp pack m4 but know ill wanna map it...just a bummer its gonna cost 2k to get the crank hub done...
Crankhub failure is totally blown out of proportion, only heavily modified cars are prone to this type of failure, otherwise a stage 1 map shouldn't cause any problems whatsoever
@oraclearl_fx I wish that was true bit ot simply isn't....its happened on stock cars...although I get where you're coming from. I'm a car designer for jaguar myself and have zero clue how bmw get away with some of the stuff they put out...its a terrible solution n was bound to fail with high torque impulses
@@mattwilliams1479 I'm Part of a BMWfanatics club and we race competitively every weekend, not a single crankhub failure among our members thus far, so I speak from experience, nevertheless there's a solution for piece of mind...I'm liking your designer job for Jaguar looking at the F-type by far my favorite Jag....
@oraclearl_fx like I said...unfortunately there are documented cases of it happening on stock cars..but glad to hear it hasn't happened to you guys. The use of a friction design on a rotating component relying on the clamping load of a bolt which cud stretch n lose clamp load is terrible...and must have been cost driven and they have since deleted it which speaks volumes. I too love the f type...I actually prefer the previous gen myself to the latest one....and wudnt mind a supercharged awd myself :)
I am stage 2 on stock crankhub. If you're gonna buy this car and scared of crankhub, don't buy it...simple.
So much tyre noise in this car on crap UK roads. It's the only thing stopping me from buying one.
It’s an M car though, not an E class.
@@jamsxr I'm not expecting E class levels of refinement but some better noise insulation would be better. It's still a 4 door saloon and should be moderately practical. An M5 is better in this regard.
@@ronniep9272 sure, then it becomes heavier. My RS4 is reasonably quiet and comfortable but pretty boring to drive. The M5 is more of a GT, won’t be as fun to drive.
@@jamsxr I don't think 20kg of extra noise insulation would make it much heavier. My disappointment is that these are seen as 'do it all' cars but they're not. That's why even this reviewer said have a 340i as a daily driver and get this M3 for the weekend. You might as well just get a Porsche as a weekend toy. I could tolerate the stiffer ride but that tyre noise would get to me. I like to zone out and just relax in a car when I'm not driving spiritedly and I couldn't do that in this car, I guess that what he means when he said the car 'feels angry all the time', it certainly sounds it. From what I've read the G80 fixes most of this but I'd never get one due to how it looks. It's a shame as it is exhilarating when you're driving it on those country back roads but how often are you going to do that before the novelty wears off?
@@ronniep9272 the thing is, I found the G80 dull as a road car, it’s objectively better but has lost some of that raw personality. Luckily we have a family car, but I will still use the M3 as an occasional daily - probably covering 5k miles per year. I previously had an FL5 Type R so hoping the interior noise is no worse.
There’s a compartment in the glove box made especially for that cup holder cover.
So how much did you spend in fuel in the week?
Can't remember from this particular vid but over 320ish miles was about £70 in 99 ron fuel.
Now thats how your ment to drive a bmw
pretty cheap 99ron😅
I think that's 95ron. Stock car doesn't need 99.
I lived with one for 4 years and now i have gone to the dark side, Tesla Model 3 Performance and it feels quicker than F80 on public road. No comparison.
Can imagine 0-60 and general round town the instant power is unparalleled by any petrol car. However, do you get the same smiles per gallon as the M3?
I test-drove tesla performance models then bought an m4 cp. the tesla’s are fast but boring. Easiest way to explain this is comparing cooking a burger in a microwave or on a BBQ. Microwave’s quicker but really you want the bbq. 💪🏻🔥
@@CallumRoberts17the M3 is only fun at very high speeds.
The M3 is fun at any speed
@@ronniep9272 i disagree. Having an m4 as my daily i can confirm it’s fun most of the time. Snappy, loud, has that m-car feel. You don’t need to drive at high speeds to enjoy things
Pretty childish driving.
Why?
Give over
@@Birmingham_racingif you have to ask then nothing I say here will clarify it for you.
