#G80M3 #G82M4 #Review - Auta a dopravní prostředky
When a 30 minute video feels like 5 minutes 👌🏻
exactly
Idk bro it felt like 5:01 but could just be me tbh
Seconded, nice one guys, great work
When a sentence is half a sentence
We need more Bilal and Imran car chats, love it...although let down was there no chat about samosa’s 😂
We need more Samosa Chaat!
Okay this was a good pun Bilal
@@EvolveAutomotive I’m proud of myself.
@@Eventuri heat them up on that steering wheel....lol
@@Eventuri new name for Podcast
I had a wry smile when Bilal said he'd had a 'spirited drive' - so good to have both of your observations about the M cars, both driving and the practicalities of ownership. Thanks guys. C
AWD is going to be insane. Can't wait till tuning starts and we can start to see the full potential of it.
Gents, I am 55 years old and thus say 'Ooof' a lot when getting up from a chair, so probably not a typical demographic for your channel. However, the considered opinion and quality of commentary on cars and modifications from both of you is, without fail, first class. You always take an measured approach and deliver concise content. Well done and thank you, keep it coming !!
Fully agreed. This is now one of my fave YT channels :)
Thank you for the kind words Julian! We like to think we have a much more mature mindset when it comes to producing videos and also modifying cars.
Wow I'm 55 and still squat with 300. Time to visit a gym
Awesome honest review - I’m relieved it feels as good as it does and also still carries that all important M2/3 DNA - great job 👏🏼
Can't wait to see the intake design! Awesome video guys. Fast becoming one of my favourite channels on YT!
In love with this car! And you definitely can’t beat the driving experience within its class
Thanks for a great honest and well directed video. Much appreciated.
Great detailed review. Top work boys great channel! Also the camera quality is on point!! Keep up the good work and keep them coming mashallah
Superb review, thank you! Have to say, the front end on your car is definitely growing on me!
Thanks guys! Wonderful content as always once again! 🙌🏾
Good to see you both together and discuss things 😊👍🏻
You guys rock! The dynamic between you guys is incredible 👍
Real. Genuine. Amazing content. Thank you guys.
Best M Car Review I Seen Ever On CZcams ..Really Love It The Way You Explain Every Single Thing..💪💪💪💪
Thanks for the in depth review and honest feedback. Glad to also hear that bmw has bridge the gap with this new M3. Excited for the next video. 🙋🏽♂️
Very informative as always guys, turning into a very good channel. Keep up the good work👍.
I have waited for this review guys since you got the car and you did not disappoint...as a BMW M fan it’s exactly what I hoped the review would be...barring the controversial exterior looks that people are having an issue with which I love....because the look are no longer safe...it’s a hate or love affair...I happened to have loved it from the get go..but entirely respect your opinions..the dish look/taste reference was really cool...am like you Imran that am more about the tech and how a car drives and makes me feel..and less about the popularity contest!!! Great job guys!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽What a colour to luck out on too!!😂
Thanks for making this video. Very mature and informative. Loved it!
Everytime I see Bilal, I've feeling his punjabi will flow out soon
Great review and what a change to other reviews, very knowledgeable.
This is the first BMW ever made that is actually exciting to look at. This M3 is borderline the most beautiful and exciting looking car ever made.
what a great video! very informative!! I've been toying with the idea for a while now and this video just helped me make my decision... definitely gonna pick one up in a billion years 👍🏼
Great video guys, enjoyed it.
I love this channel. No fluff just the facts. 👌🏽
Great video guys. Having had an F80 that I didn't get along with due to the poor ride and nvh but loved the look of this G80 looks to be the perfect balance. Looks have grown on me a lot too especially in Oxide.
awesome video guys, really like when the two of you are together, I agree with almost everything..
Great review and I’m subscribed for future updates.
Brilliant video guys. So informative and helpful. 👍
Thanks for the intelligent and thoughtful commentary.
Racking up the miles fast lol enjoying it to the fullest!
I like your split screen setup with the dashcam footage but still being able to see both of you speak
Great video guys, thanks a lot!
Great work gents, really helpful, thank you 🙏. Your comments on the design are spot on - having test driven the G82 recently, I didn’t give the grille a second thought (and I hated it before I saw it). The entire design language is “aggressive” - I think it looks right for the moment but hard to tell if it will age well. I think the F82 meanwhile is a timeless beauty.
(Also, love the Panerai, especially with that strap 👍)
Loving the new Evolve T-Shirts very smart !
Another good video / upload guys.
Thanks 😊 Available from Ctrl and Shift
Great conversation, guys!
Lovely review, have me considering the G80 rather than the F90. Would swear you were BMW genius team. Keep it up and stay humble. 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Good content , enjoyed that , can you tell I might buy something off them soon , ha. Cheers 👍
Great Video Imran thanks!😀👍
BMW are clearly on the money, I hated the front grill but now it’s really growing on me (and it would appear others!)
Wow, great content as always guys, keep it up!
Question, do you think the polarized front grill will keep this car from being a huge sales success? Or will they sell as many as they can produce? I’ve owned 3 previous M3 generations but just can’t bring myself to spend that much on a car that doesn’t impress me both inside and out.
Great detailed Review from a real expert! Many Thanks for that!! Will very likely order the M4 comp as soon as X-Dirive is available in aventurine red or davit grey. Hope the X-Drive version will not be higher than the rear wheel drive version like it is on my current 540 X-Drive Sedan and hopefully the X-Drive will not weigh to much extra and will have less precise steering feeling
Great video Imran! 👍😃
Fantastic video/review….respect 🫡💯
Really appreciate your thoughts on the new G80. I love that Oxide color and I think it might be my favorite color on offer. I feel the same way about the looks. It's a lot more important how it drives and how it makes you feel when you drive it and I don't drive a car for other people to look at. In other words I think the new G80 and G82 have it where it counts.
Great info Imran
Great video, thank you 🙏🏻
Can’t wait to see you do a track day to really see how planted it is around the twisties.
Always love the way you present and explain everything, thank god your not wearing that cap....keep it real
I got the chance to be taken out in one of these and I was very impressed, great car
You guys are absolutely underrated... I never get bored.👍
Great review!
Would be interesting to hear your thoughts on Alfa quadrofoglio :)
Great video as always , but hav a m5 competition lci is there much different in acceleration/speed between the m5 and this m3 thanks
My Dream Car Right now😍💪
Gonna be December before I get my xdrive m3 with individual takes much longer but worth wait for Mexico blue
Of course. Who the hell buys the rwd when an awd is coming soon
I am also starting to accept the grille. I purchased the X3M Comp for the capability and I was unsure of the exterior and now after 1500 miles I am starting to really look forward to driving it. Now in a year or so I am going to order an M3. Great video. PS sport plus with everything turned off on the X3M seems to have a mind of its own. Never reacts the same way twice. Any ideas?
What’s you guys opinion on premium fuel like shell V power over your supermarket stuff. Waste of money or...?
Great video, thank you 👍
When you buy the M3 touring, I'd suggest looking at the frozen grey metallic colour as shown in the RBR's video of M Town.
It looks stunning
Can you take any of the frozen paints through a car wash?
@@randkalik if i had an m3, I’d wash it myself
great video very intresting cheers steve 👍 😀
Good review video 👍🏼
I've seen a couple of M3's and a few ordinary models out on the road. I have to say, the M's look pretty good to my eyes, i even quite like the grills but still not sure about the rear, bit too 'busy'. The ordinary models aren't very nice at all.
All that said, still prefered the E21 😍 but i'm old so look back fondly on the halcyon days of BMW just making the 3,5,6 and 7 series, not every car for every person.
now that you've spent some significant time behind the wheel of the new M3; how does the performance compare to the stock M5 (f90). As current M5 owner I'm a little concerned switching to a more agile and I think better appointed interior of the new M3 (I'm thinking carbon seats here) will only be marred by it's slightly slower acceleration (both off the lights and at speed), or is this really a non-issue and not something I'll notice. thoughts?
Amazing car,i want one. Grill...as more as i look at it,normal grill looks kinda boring comparing to M3 grill. Just one idea,have you thought to do the redisign of the grill only? I dont know if that is possible.
I can't wait to see your front bumper even if you aren't going to be producing it for the market
Can't wait for exhaust and stage 2 remap !!
Guys great review, just got my first f82 and after the 428I with the ZF the f82 DCT is RAW , the g series is early days have they fixed the crank hub issue in the s58
Yes S58 has a crank hub that is physically part of the crank.
I know this is not a forum for fixing car's but has anyone any idea's for removal of the f31 330d charge pipe from the intercooler. I have removed the black spring retainer and the silver clip , but I can't seem to get the pipe of the intercooler itself. Any ideas would be much appreciated thanks in advance ?.
I get the car should drive good and you buy a car that you enjoy to drive, but you need to love/like the look of it too it should be a complete package,
Been good videos always enjoy your content.
My question is, can you configure the brakes to your liking?
@imran, thoughts on restomod scene, do you think you guys could position yourselves as the Singer of BMW? Would love to see an E46/E92 with a high quality bespoke interior and everything sorted.
Not sure the market is ready to pay that kinda money for either of those cars
Great video review, I will probably never be able to afford one of these could probably stretch to an F80, but heard bad things about turbo problems etc..to that end Ive booked my e92 le500 in with you guys for rod bearings, decat & stage 2 remap, in your opinion does the 92 stage 2 compare at all with the newer models in terms of driving satisfaction? Or has the e92 become an old dinosaur?
We love the E92 M3 and have our own. It's a great driving experience but can be improved even further with a few tweaks
Great video. I saw the G80 today for the first time and it looks amazing in person. I think BMW nailed it in exterior and interior design as well as the driving dynamics. And yes when I drove it my first thought was that it felt as nimble as my old M2.
Seems like this car drives really wonderfully well.
It’s very aggressive on the road !!!
When are you guys going to lower it and or maybe use spacers? A Downpipe?
Are guys working on the air intake for this new M3 Comp?
Car already has 15mm spacers fitted all round, hopefully prototype MSS kit soon 🙌🏻
Amazing video and contents! I’ve had quite a time to decide which color will I I go for between Brooklyn Grey and this Oxide Grey II. Could you tell me what does this Oxide Grey II paint looks like when it’s under sunshine? Is it more Champagne-like, or is it more towards silver?
Depends on the time of day, it’s more often a warmer silver than a blue-silver
@@EvolveAutomotive Thank you for the replies. That's exactly what I'm looking for!
I don't think it's ugly. I've seen a few on the road, to me it's more distinctive.
Yep, despite initial hesitation the new grille works well on the new M3 and M4, though they look hideous on non-M versions. I think the horizontal slats make the difference.
Great vid! What's the color?
My honest opinion I own every M3, normally my dealer rings me and asks mr mahmood when would you like book your test drive, i instantly said I’m not buying this one, today I picked up my M3, pictures don’t do this car justice, the car is a beast, front grill with the number on looks normal
I for one think the g80 m3 sounds similar to the f80 m3, and when both car are stock they sound nice, and recognisable when accelerating in the distance.
Great video. Side question trying to work out if that watch is an omega dark side?
Yes 👌
How much power are yous looking at wen you get the time
Imran thanks for your input. Will you suggest or don’t mind getting a 6 spd in this car. Looking forward to your response. Thanks
We cannot get the manual in the UK, and have no interesting in doing a swap.
so the three designers that designed front middle and back are the same three that designed the type R but in reverse
how is g8x dealing with uk's ramps and speed bumps (approach angle and ride height)?
Have had no issues
Another belter
These guys are good. What 0-60 mph times do people think the 4 wheel drive will hit?
3.4-3.5?
That green colour on the F80 is stunning. Is it custom?
I know you said you'd like to get some suspension products out, are you going to be developing a kit with MSS?
Currently in development yes, the car rides so well though! Got their work cut out on this one, sure they’ll manage it though.
I love the concave of these wheels, specially for stock.
Great vid. Unfortunately you can't get a manual as we don't get the non competition model here.
Yeah in the UK we can’t get the manual :( but for markets where they can, it is an option in RWD.
Don't see many Black Black DSOTM Speedys out in the world! Really starting to warm to the G80. Three years into owning my E90 M3 DCT, I would seriously like a manual G80 in the garage.
Matches my soul 🤣
@@EvolveAutomotive Haha
Great car ❤
Just look how pretty the f80 looks. BMW have let us down this time on the looks
F80 is a great looker for sure
F80 looks dated now.
@@sj24- interior yes. Exterior has the classic formula.
@@sj24- And when the next M3 debuts the G80 will immediately look dated....the real question is whether either design is timeless. I don't dislike the G80 design, but I think F80 will better stand test of time. To my eyes, E46/E39 still look great, and a well done E92 still catches my eye.
@@jackflash6657 Maybe. I didn't think the e92 looked dated when the f80 came out. But I get what you're saying. Only time will tell.
Good grief the image quality in the warehouse is fantastic! Don't know what y'all are shooting on, but geez the image is crisp.
Just a simple Sony A6500!
May I ask what paint color is the one in this video?
Oxide Grey
Glad you said you’re not getting paid by BMW - I was thinking it was possible you were! Appreciate the candid viewpoints.
Love the review, but wholeheartedly disagree with the front grill from the first time I saw it, I LOVE the front grill especially, the design is artistically bold with a sharpe form & Gorgeous!!!
Wouls you buy a 2. Hand m5 comp for around 67 k pounds or would you buy a new m3 comp?
Sounds like a video
- How Much Will It Cost For The Intake And Exhaust?
No idea on either yet
lol the E21 coming the other way!
Little Easter egg! First 3 Series and latest one
@@EvolveAutomotive Was this on purpose or was it just lucky that the E21 was passing by?
@@JoaoDuraes luck
@@EvolveAutomotive amazing! :D
