100% would've passed that Tacoma after 10 seconds

Thank you for your honest opinions in the review. I am definitely now sold on the manual and looking to secure a build on one in my area. Please keep the content coming since your review has been upfront to a fellow BMW M fanatic like myself. I will be ordering an M3 as well. Love the practicality and looks overall. Plus I live in ATL people are inconsiderate when parking 😂

Congrats on the new car! I ordered a 2023 stick m3 in yellow with blue carbon extended merino leather. I should have mine in 5 months . Looking forward to your videos while I’m waiting for mine 😛

I ordered a manual G80 in August and it’s at port now, pretty excited to get the car. Also have a GT4 in the garage, gotta keep buying up all the new manual cars like you. Excited to see what you do with the car!

Nice review, I can relate to your comment’s about the Tacoma, I like driving ACH and most people will pull over and let me pass but occasionally there’s a jerk that continues to drive 20 mph and won’t pull over. Thanks for the video

Nice review and congrats on the car, it looks very sharp. Currently have a modified 340i with a 6 speed and I love the car however ive been itching to get into either a manual CT4 V BW or a g80 M3. Interesting review from your perspective on the cadillac, I also test drove a CT4 V BW and I fell in love with it. I am leaning more towards it as I didnt feel quite as connected in the G82 M4 I drove. Both are excellent cars though and I feel like I like the proportions on the G80 far more than the G82. Decisions decisions......

Dope review. Good points. I have no money. But this was fun to watch. Enjoy !!!

You also have a very soothing and calming commentary voice btw lol. Looking forward to more m3 videos!

Question: I understand that the M3 manual is available with adaptive cruise (whereas the CT4-V BW is not). Is yours optioned with that, or does that come standard?

Sub'd. Such an honest refreshing review. Which car is funner to drive, the brz or m3? Acceleration is not comparable but curious on the driving feel. Also, which cars {m3 vs brz) manual transmission feels better?

Nice vid. My M3 Comp xDrive is currently at the port in Germany. Been a long wait. I've been torn on the curved dash and think I'd honestly prefer the old one. Currently in a 2020 M340. At the very least, I wish they had kept the 8 shortcut buttons just so you could keep your eyes on the road. First world problems I suppose. Also, that Tacoma did, in fact, suck.

I turned down an attractive offer from my dealer 2 days ago because of the dashboard. It belongs to electric cars not to M3.

Has it gotten any easier to deal with the screen? Tactile button controls are still important to me and the giant screen is a concern. I have a GT4 for a weekend car and I have an allocation for a g80, so I would intend to daily it. My intent was to sell my e92 and e39 and just daily the g80 as such yours is spec’d the same as mine other than color. The screen is a major question mark for me and I am honestly curious how you like it a month later. I hate the idea of not having basic stuff like hvac on a physical button.

i own a g80 manual i drive it alot on the track, it's the best car i have ever had (even had a gt3). if i will give you one advice just put the valvetronic midpipe on it, pilot sport cup 2 tires and dot 5 braking fluid and other braking pads for the track(i have pagid ones). if you do that it's just he best of the best.

Great review. Have been wondering how the steering feel compares to GR86 and/or a GT4

Great feedback. The Dravit Grey looks sharp. However, I am really not feeling the new Dash. It is a giant tablet that does not seem very intuitive. I guess I would have to learn to love it if I get a 2023 model. Now, I am on the fence between a manual and the xDrive. Really miss the engagement that MT brings to the driving experience but I am not sure if I would get tired of it eventually. Any thoughts?

The color just wooow 🤩👌

Fantastic video. Have you experience brake squeaking since owning it?

This is almost exactly the spec I’m going for. Sharp!

Nice video. My G80 is at the port right now.

Is there a right hand drive for RHD countries? All the M3 base manuals videos are left hand drive.

So currently have a 22 M440 Gran Coupe with the B58 fully optioned to ~70k. I’m debating getting a manual M3 since as we all know this could be the last hurrah for manual ICE cars… I am debating though because the 4 has great compliance over bumps and I don’t want the M3 to be too jarring given i’m not planning on taking it on track.

Are there the programmable buttons on the center console?

I like they show this car from side view first and show the front view at last.

Great review. I have a 2022 M340i and thinking about upgrading to the M3. In your opinion is spending the extra money on the M3 Comp worth it over the standard M3? It seems like the standard version is plenty fast

Where did you get it i want one as well but everywhere i go there is a markup, dude beautfull car i love my F30 and this one is next on my.list

How is the shifter compared to your GT 4 ?

🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏🏻, Car looks so badass, I really enjoyed the look of it despite the grill and of course, yes if the engine which is forged from head to toe the S58, best engine on the market right now...

Love this content

G82 M4 has a wide shoulder like a muscle car whereas G80 M3 has a wider fenders with no shoulder, like the traditional M cars. If you’re a long time BMW owner/enthusiast, you will naturally gravitate towards M3 than M4 for its reason. Beside BMW designworks and munich under hooydonk really ruined the M4 look making that long dash to axle a proper RWD proportion look like a FWD altima coupe. M3 still retains that BMWness a tutonic look even with a vertical grille. A manual S58 was also on my list of cars to get, a last ICE manual m car. With BRZ and Type R in order, i have to settle for upcoming M2 instead. Nice video and looking forward to an update on the G80

Such rational advice about not checking all the option boxes. Give me the motor and transmission.

Heya - just wanna ask does it have a sunroof?!? - thanks.

Very nice Just found your channel

Any rattling from that new dash?

There was literally nothing you mentioned I disagreed with. I have a 2021 M3 Comp. That said, I’m planning to keep it and actually swap out the auto tranny with your manual tranny because I love this car and Idrive 7. I know you are saying idrive8 and those screens are better in person, so I’ll have to wait and see for myself before I make the tranny change, but otherwise/regardless gorgeous car bro and great vid. (PS, I’m a 40 year old exec and still replaced the two resonators with straight pipe…highly recommend it)

omfg this spec goes CRAZY

I think you may be my brother from a different mother. We both can not stand discourteous drivers. Nice video..I can not wait to get my M3 they said Dec 15th 2022

The G80 is your daily driver and track car? What are your alignments specs for street/track?

your voice and description very clear . when driving fast I felt nervous not only you I also enjoyed very much . But sri lankan like us never never be lucky to at least touch the body of the car .

First of all love the digital dash 👍 What was the closing price? Is it a lease? And how much is your monthly payments more or less? Im interested in this type of car, i got 11 months left with my lease and im planing on getting an m3.

Nice spec you found

I've had mine for 6 months (2022) and still love it. Everything is awesome (except the brake dust!) Agree on m4 it looks weird to me.

Great feedback however the 2023 with the curved display IS the LCI… not sure why you kept saying it isn’t 😂

2023 M3 Comp xDrive CCBs here. Same color. Same wheels. My car, totally different animal.

would be great to hear your thoughts on M3 vs ct4v-bw

Love it!

Because it’s still in the break in period so you can’t go above 5,000 rpm right ?

Love the spec, bro. Looks good. I'm still not sure about the new dashboard.

what dealer did you get this at ?

Great color and gear box of course. One thing is ID8. Not the screen but the design of speedometer and tach. It is just weird. Id7 was way better. More pleasant looking. How do you like it?

Congratulations

I’ve shopped BMW, Porsche,AMG. Dealer’s really believe they have the upper hand. I’ll hold on to my 20 F82 Heritage till this BS settles. Nice clip, enjoyed the talk. BTW how many years of change yet they can’t get the sound right.

I liked the video after you said I didn’t pay cent over msrp lol

Colour is amazing

What is LCI?

Great video. Kinda annoyed I had to lookup the msrp haha

Get a midpipe, I think it's a waste of money spending money on a exhaust. Disconnect the valve controller or just buy one to control them. Let someone drive your car and you will see its louder then you think. These cars are well insulated. By the way, the Dravit Grey rocks, I get compliments on mine every time I pull it out garage. I definitely need to drive mine more because I have 7k miles and owned for a year now.

How does the manual in the M3 compare to the GT4? I'm making the switch and worried it's going to be a disappointment in the BMW

Is this SoCal?

Debating between this and a CT4 V blackwing. Leaning towards an M3 unless I can swing the CT5 blackwing with the big V8 supercharged engine

Hopefully you got at least the executive package.

Dravit gray ?

Keep your revs below 4k during breakin 1st 1200

What exactly is LCI? I just ordered a 2023, do those come with LCI?

I’m based in socal as well, and I own a g80 m3 manual. Where is this road? It’s beautiful and windy

Your reaction to the Tacoma driver made me not want to buy a BMW because I didn’t want people to think I’m one of THOSE drivers. (Like you)

Beautiful spec man! You should look into getting the carbon fiber full seat backs. It’ll complement the seats and exterior nicely.

You’ll get used to the display and the more you familiarize yourself with it. It’s jaw droppingly beautiful at night. It was overwhelming at first. Did a BMW genius help you with the tech when you bought it? -‘24 G83 owner🤙🏾

This is Nasty 🫣🤮 that interior going crazy can’t wait…..

GREAT CAR

I like the fact you opted for sunroof instead of cf roof. Feel more luxurious

What dealership if you don’t mind me asking?

This is how it's supposed to be. 6MT + RWD!

How do u negotiate not a penny more from msrp? Here in tx they make u pay thousands for delivery taxes dealer fees etc. And ifnu don't wanna buy it they don't care.

That Tacoma was rage inducing... I couldn't finish the vid.

Can someone please explain to me what G82 or G80 means? I never see it in the model names but people always mention it.

A sunroof? Doesn't feel like you plan to keep it for long. Must be a lease to satisfy the itch.

Lmaooooo bro crashed out at 9:47

Congratulations on the car. I do think they look great, but that screen. It is killing me. I wish that was an option. For that reason only I am thinking about M4, but with the price hike I am wondering if I should. I may have missed the boat. If I could get the M4 for the MSRP of 2022 M3 that would be the way to go 😉. I know, I can keep dreaming, but the market is changing so who knows. 🤷‍♂️ Congratulations again. 🤦‍♂️

very nice m3 g80

I can't past that dash, and the removal of hard button climate controls. And if you're gonna force me to do everything on a massive touchscreen, there's ZERO EXCUSE for the system to be laggy. It's not 2015 any more, they should be able to use enough CPU & RAM to make these system responsive. Like most of them were till they went overboard stuffing more features/work into them.

I could be wrong but believe the chip shortage is why they’re going away from the use of individual buttons.

I agree. M3 look better. I got the back F80 with 50 year anniversary emblems.

Your new tires need more than 120 miles to lose their factory "greasiness". That said - PS4S definitely a superior tire to whatever Pirelli is providing.

Screw that Tacoma dude...I want a G80 M3 Competition manual as my next car. Currently got a 2022 Lexus IS500 Launch Edition. Where I live the price difference between a manual M3 & manual competition is only $3,900. Just curious why did you not go for the competition. Also is your exterior color Dravit Grey Metallic? Enjoy the ride & I am enjoying my V8 for now.

no laser lights :(((

Cant see a sports sedan getting much better than this.

thought it was an electric BMW. i prefer my 2022 BMW M4 Comp in Brooklyn grey with the "Sofa" seats!

Great review. Seriously thinking about trading my M240i for the 'base' M3. And yeah, what a douche in the Taco.

Dude congrats for car but u can just little bit push gas pedal just little bit & fly over that takoma or what ever car it is but maybe is usa there are gost wall between lains

God I HATE the new dash HATE it.....I keep trying to convince myself it's not so bad and I cant....I'm a huge bimmer fan and this car is giving me so many compromises.

ngl i prefer the m3 than m4 cuz it looks way better, they're the same car just different versions

manual ❤❤❤❤

Spec 🔥

Yes sir manual over auto 100% and let's stop feeding dealers Markups.

Looks like the CU Later Grey on the supra

I'm not a fan of the new display at all, looks like it was bolted on as an after thought and not built into the car, I prefer the generation before.

In my opinion my g82 m4 looks wayy better than the m3 and i have 3 cars so if im taking my dog somewhere lol or family or some friends then ill take a different car like my rdx or tlx i mean is like saying oh im gunna trade my 911 or my lambo for a 4 door panamera because of practically lol is just my opinion plus my m4 is a 2022 and im happy I didn’t wait for that 2023 because that screen looks crazy big and uncomfortable to use but again just my opinion good luck to you.

They are making the dashes like that so that they generic across all their range for some bizarre reason.

The M3 and M4 have become GT cruisers. Nothing wrong with that. The days of flitting around corners like a ballerina are long past.
