- Today Marcus drives a beautiful E92 BMW M3 to see what it's all about. With a 4.0L V8 under the hood that revs over 8,000 RPM and sounds unbelievable, this generation M3 has got to be one of the best sounding cars we've ever driven, not to mention one of the most fun.

I've had my E92 M3 for 3.5 yrs and still love every time I drive it. The sound and feeling of being at the top of the rev band is legendary!
How many Kms you got on it? How's the reliability/maintenance been?
91k km here ... no issues with it, other than the seat belt buckle keep hitting the brushed aluminium part of the door, and has dinged it up pretty bad. Only issue I have had is the i-drive knob fell off after being in 50C in Death Valley, that broke the glue, and a few months ago the traction control button broke (but it's 95% on ... just fall off if I hit it with my knee or something). Only costly maintenance was new discs in the rear (think it was after 50k or so, but still on the first set of front ones).
I have the 2008 Sedan version and it has been a great car. I have used it as a daily driver and also stored it in the winter for 3 of the 5 winters I have owned it. Winters are not too bad in Southern Ontario so it presents a good opportunity to drive it year round. I have 150K on it and the only real issue was the throttle control actuators which were costly to replace. I look at it as cost per smile and using that guideline it is very cost effective. LOVE this car.
Good to hear from an owner.
I have 2011 with 78k miles, 60k of those put on by myself as the second owner. I daily the car year around as I lived in SC where it doesn't get cold. Besides tires once a year and oil changes every 5k miles the car has been amazing. I'm just now about to replace the stock brakes because of the many mountain road drives. Lots and lots of 93 gas! BPM Stage 2 tune with servotronic changes (LOVE it), Turner test pipes, MRF rear section exhaust, Dinan Carbon Intake, solid aluminum rear subframe bushings and solid delrin diff bushings, UUC Evo 3 shifter with an extended shift know from IND, Swift spec R springs on stock EDC shocks and upsized 255-275 Michelin PSS tires on factory wheels. Driven at any speed the car is a thrill. S65 was BMWs most reliable engine during its production and even still.
Fav bmw of all time
I beg to differ... A Manual E39 M5 in Imola red or Le Mons Blue
+Nathan Wright Haha funny you say that because I was literally thinking about a manual e39 as I commented that 😂
lol car enthusiasts think alike eh?
Nah the batmobile (3.0 csl) is my favourite bmw.
Andrew Brown only bmw id only consider getting tbh, V8, timeless look, DCT. Its got alot.
Hope you guys have been enjoying the variety lately! :D (RWB, Viper, C63, M3) Just a reminder this car is for sale! So if you're interested, here's the link! vancouver.craigslist.ca/rds/cto/5678740474.html
Thanks Marcus. The shoot was an awesome experience, will see you soon hopefully in the f10 M5
Nice car, great vid but a 2008 with 80k Km's for 43k..your ask is a little high
Sorry the guy selling it is asking too much
Yeah price is definitely kind of steep. I'm selling my 2013 with 35k miles for 44k. But good luck to the dude though.
price was reduced to 41k (not firm) , that's 41k Canadian = 31k USD, includes transferable bumper to bumper warranty until 120k kms. I could give it away for 38k Cdn any day but extra couple grand is for the warranty and few small modifications.
I think the E92 M3 is possibly the best looking BMW ever. And that sound..... Wow.
1. Step One: Sell your M4
2. Step two: Buy a M3 e92
3. Akrapov it!
Happy.
Cjkologe agree!
Apart from the akrapovic, silly expensive!
Just do the oem exhaust mod and spend the money on better brakes!
akra exhaust sounds shit
I own both and i like my E92 more however that's only because its supercharged. My F80 M3 is a blast around town with all the torque. Its stage 2 so it feels faster minus the top end that the V8 has. The f80 has so much torque you have to baby it but E92 even supercharged is a lot easier to drive with losing control so in that sense i prefer it.
@@microbeast83 Yes but cmon the e92 sounds wayy better
@@Mrakstunna honestly its top 10 coolest sounding cars ever made 100%. The down shifts with a great exhaust are insane. Now all modded up, primary cat delete, aggressive exhaust and a supercharger and omg sounds like a jet seriously. CZcams e92 M3 full exhaust primary cat delete supercharged!
that exhaust note is absolutely maniacal. Love it!!!
Most undersubscribed channel on CZcams
oh they are growing quick. i subbed around 10,000 and that was only a half a year ago.
Thanks for the compliment.! We do our best to keep you guys entertained with high quality automotive content :D If you are willing to help us out further, share our videos through social media or Reddit. We would greatly appreciate it!!
I've never been disappointed. Thanks for the awesome content Roads Untraveled.
The best looking Beemer of all time...
At 4:40 notice how the keys fly backwards haha, what a beast! I love it! Excellent cinematography too!
Lolll
Just bought a 2011 E90 M3 w/ DCT... love it!
Thankyou!!!...After seeing this review I was lucky enough to buy an m3, what a car!, i used to have a gtr which was alot faster but more twitchy on the edge, the m3 is an amazing piece of engineering and with decat delete, rear muffler mod, it sounds amazing.
Getting ready to to buy this car in space grey 6MT carbon fiber roof and comp package. Stoked up.
Best decision you'll ever make. It was the best and most reliable car I've owned. Plus the space grey doesn't hide the beastly curves and bulges
You put so much effort into your videos and the end result is amazing. One of the best car channels on CZcams!
Best e92 M3 review. Nice and informative without being over the top. 👍🏽
I just woke up from a dream about owning one. This is a sign.
I love it too, nice leap from the e46 and more satisfying than the new generation. The S65's linear power delivery and sound are addicting. Beautifully balanced chassis to match.
I need me an E92 lol
Sick review man!
Picked up my m3 a week ago, it's truly amazing, anyone thinking about one, just do it!
So happy I got the convertible version, THAT NOISE!!!!
Thinking a about selling my tuned e92 335 and getting the M
I did that. Had a remaped 335i with exhaust mod (minor mods I know) and figured it was a 'thinking man's M3'. Anyway, I ended up getting the M3. And let me tell you that the power delivery, smoothness of the way it piles on the revs and the sound it makes - are NOTHING to do with the 335i. This is a different league altogether and you suddenly realise why the price gap is what it is :D
ditto Dan, i tested $33k 2012 335is blue and then today a $33k 2011 M3 Sedan Jarez Black both about 30k miles, Ford and Toyota lot had bald tires and the triangle warning on dash
did you trade it?? I have the same idea on my mind...
dont do it
upgrade.. I did it 3 weeks ago lol. totally forgot i had posted this comment. Couldnt be happier with my decision though...
Stock exhaust sounds the best. No matter what you do to a e90/e92/93, they will never have that true “Ferrari sound”
sounds best ? are you drunk you can't hear the stock exhaust that coming from a e92 owner here.
I got to ride in one and i must say that it was so much fun! The crackles and pops when you downshift sounds amazing too!
This video engaged me!!
Just got my E92!!!
was anyone else looking at the leaf on the grille?
yes
Fuck I can't unsee it
The most beautiful looking car BMW has ever built.
I enjoy my simpler E92 323 and it just feels thoughtful and like its taking care of you.
Bruh, I'm getting addicted to these videos!! Keep up the good work guys!!
Best Car I ever owned! Since 2008 👍
Cool username. Would you mind sharing lessons learned, ownership costs, etc? Really interested to learn more about E92 ownership experience. Thanks.
@@DreamWorkDrive the car in the video is mine. I owned it for 4 years, from 40k kms to 100k when I traded it in. Most reliable vehicle I've owned, not a single repair job while in my ownership. Only money I put into the car was by choice on mods. Also very easy to work on, I did all the fluid changes, suspension upgrades myself saving tons of money. I will be getting an E92 M3 again
that downshift sounds so damn good 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I swear, you need more subsribers and views. Like, you can feel the passion within every review.
I love the high-strung sound. Better than the more common bassier v8 noises
Keep up the vids man, this is one of my favorite CZcams channels. Also, the more Evo's the better!
Thanks for that video. You captured a good amount of points why this car is so unique and great. Especially the responsiveness of the engine has been shown perfectly.
You did miss out on the handling a little bit. It is just so forgiving and trustworthy.
You should drive this thing in the rain and you will see what a truly balanced car this is.
I love mine and I prefer it to any other car. Maintenance and insurance are more expensive than the Porsches I used to have but I prefer driving the M3!!
Maintenance isn't so bad, this is my car and I've done all the maintenance and mods on it myself, very easy to work on, unless of course it's something electronic or requires specialized tools.
You've become one of my favorite car reviewers. Keep up the good work 👍
Carvin' the twisties? Love it
Should review the e90 (sedan) with a 6mt!
Now that was a well filmed intro. watched just that several times before getting to the review lol.
good reviews and great cars, don't understand why the channel is taking a while to grow.
Great cars.....spiritual successor to the E39 M5......
One of the best reviews on youtube.
Great video.
I have a very late 2012 LE500 model in Imola red, DCT transmission with EDC.
Its only done 12,000 miles.....Had it almost 4 years...I keep looking at the F80, but it just doesnt do it for me.
The E92 with THAT engine is amazing, the F80 leaves me a little cold, it doesnt get anywhere near to stirring my soul like the previous model does.
I think I'll keep it.
DaCosta1972 I agree, the F80 just doesn't live up to it. I'll be replacing mine with an F10 M5.
acmurda. Dont do that, the F10 M5 is the worst M-car I have ever driven. Its fast but nothing else. No sound, no feeling, steering without feel and big as hell.
Amazing video as always! Should've tried to get hold a stick. Even more fun. Keep up the good work!
3:40 Car and Driver actually weighed the manual E92 M3 at 3600 lbs and close to 3700 lbs with DCT.
Outrageous video! Please keep them coming :)
One of the best review intros I’ve seen
The feeling you get when you watch an e92 m3 review,but all you have is an e90 320i.
You're *
hmm...think you had it right the first time
you dissin mah niggah
Harambe more like an e36 316ti 😂😂
Ahahah true mate, i owned it too 😂
I'm 16 rn, I currently have a 2014 mazda 6. Looking to get this within the next 2 years. Grinding hard to get one.
The only real thing I have always hated about the M3s are the stock rims. They don't fit well. Their ZCP counterparts though are great.
roar of the m power!!!
Very good video! I love this sound! Intake noise und downshifting are amazing! It´s my daily driver :-)
Exhaust doesnt sound stock. But it sounds well
Awesome vid Bro!
I have a 335i 2007, love that car. I should of got an m3 lol
Your car is faster though, all you need is a stage 2 tune.
+zemekiel The M3 is the superior vehicle with the superior drive train, looks and handling. They cannot be compared.
nzm0n5t3r Sure, doesn't change the fact that the stage 2 e92 335i is faster.
I was going to get a 335i but got a m3 instead. Didn't want to feel what you are feeling lol
What the fuck. That doesn't mean his car is faster. You can fucking tune an m3 to beat that 335. You compare them stock
Nice review of the e92 M3. Fine example there as well. I love my 2012 Dinan e92 M3 and won't be selling it anytime soon!
the moment when you can't decide between an 86 or a s2000.. my heart leans more towards a s2000
you should go with neither
Depends on what u wanna do with the car, 86 for project and s2k for a nice driver without much problems
S2000 hands down!!? It's a significantly better car. 1000 times more rewarding to drive
I like the way your heart leans
+Jay Arriola 9k daily basis?! Please don't sell you keep that car forever!nobody wants it!😁
Yo ur killing it lately. So goooooood.
Great video on the E92 love the intro editing... I've done a Review on a ZCP M3 on my channel too
That front-end smooth design, really stands out from other hard-lined BMWs. So sexy
The european muscle car❤
This is my dream car all around I’m just afraid about the whole rod hearing rumor that when around about this generation m3... I’m really looking forward on getting one before summer this year
great review and production quality.
i think you should use Linkin Park's song Roads untraveled at the begin or at the end of some video, because of the common name with your channel and because it's perfect, especially the instrumental, for presenting some car. thanks if you read this.
Always pushing out interesting content
Absolutely amazing reviews 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽😻
My dream car
What's been done to the exhaust to make it sound like that????
Sickest intro to your videos so far by along shot it's awesome !!! Also, who knows the name of the intro song !??
If only your car weighed 3500 lbs - it would run away from everything! 3704 lbs., unladen. You can look it up. Sadly, my sedan is even heavier, by 22 lbs. You're absolutely right about the V8 - it's why you buy one of these things, portly as they are!
Jeez I closed my eyes in the beginning and swore I was in a outlet mall. Now that’s what I call music volume 497...sweet m3 tho.
The best reviews always!
My dream is to own an M one day. But I just want to learn more about cars before I get one. So i wouldn't have to pay those outrageous prices to fix and so I feel more "in touch" with it since I'll be working on it myself
Your resemblance to Aaron Paul is uncanny.
the only thing that bothered me about the e92 was that it always seemed longer than the older m3s but other than that its amazing
Great Review mate also have an e92 m3
nice intro it reminded me of something david patterson would have done for a review
Hi Marcus. How do you get the exhaust and engine notes recorded this well? I really enjoy your videos, no doubt you will climb to 6 digits subscribers very soon.
What exhaust is that? It looks like the stock one except for the tips but definitely doesn't sound stock... Has this got the OEM exhaust mod?
OEM with Perforated exhaust mod and custom tips.
That doesn't sound like a stock exhaust - sounds epic!!!!!! What work was done to the exhaust?
The intro first 3 shots and I was already subbed. What camera are you using? I know is not the whole story don't get angry, awesome editing BTW.
On a different note, ticking the box for automatic in this car should be punishable by death.
+Srchangwaytogo C. Canon 6D with a Canon 24-105 L lens is our primary setup. Glad you enjoyed the video! :D
Thx a lot ;)
Oh cmon this DCT is amazing. Its still better than the SMG from the e46
The only bad thing is that I can't put "Turbomeister"-decals on it (because its naturally aspirated).
Check the 2002-hommage-Turbomeister-car. It is f...ing awesome!
Almost bought one a few years ago but got a 135i instead.. sometimes I wish I got this
Enjoyed the review. Nice channel. Let me know if you're ever in Toronto and interested in reviewing an F80, you can use mine!
great video !! love and want this car except for $$$ maintenance and main bearing/actuator failure possibilities
great video man
Can you please do a review on Ricky's car from tpb? The one with the missing passenger door? I think it's suppose to create more airflow to fan out all the smoke from his 6 paper joints... Or if you would be so kind we would love a review on Bubbles go kart😛
Love the e9x m3.. Too bad bmw doesn't make cars like this anymore. There catering there m cars more to the mass then the enthusiast. Its ok the us market taking the place
Awesome review :)
Great review
very good review!!
pizza and roads untraveled!! thanks Marcus
+Kanjo 8 :D
I'd love to see an E39 review
omg ! best channel
Great review!
Come to Mass and review my apr stage 2+ mk6 GTI
Nice! But what is he blinky red light on the middle of the dash between the HVAC outlets? Couldn't stop looking at it once I spotted it...
I used to have a 2008 E92, best car I've ever owned by a mile and I only had the manual. Video of it on my channel with Meisterschaft GT2 exhaust, it sounds absolutely mental.
Seeing as you had reviewed the E46 M3 previously to this video. How do you feel about the E92 M3 compared to the E46 ? Driving experience, dynamics, handling, torque, power overall, etc. ?
nice e92, but my FBO jb4 e85 eats these for breakfast lunch and dinner all day.
I've been saving up cash to buy myself an E92. They're so sexy 😝
I'll always have this video to remember my baby.
What exhaust are you running on the M
Now this is how a car ommercial should be
