I'm on my 3rd M3 (F80) and I would have loved to make it four cars. But, this new generation is hideous in the front and boring around the sides/rear. If I wanted AWD and an automatic I'd buy an Audi! I wanted RWD and a manual, which is why I love BMW. Alas, those days are gone it seems.

@RS2002 that's interesting to see from a UK perspective about pricing. I'm in Australia and we get ripped off by Porsche here. A 911 starts at $267k whilst an M3 and M4 will be around the $160k mark. Big difference in price. The c63's are $170k as well. For us here it's well worth $100k cheaper for a driving experience which is near enough a 911 whilst being to fit the kids in the back. How much is the price difference between a base 911 Carrera and a M3/M4 there in the UK? The design is a bit of a statement don't get me wrong. Its not beautiful but it's a statement indeed. I'm partial to the JDM culture so I don't mind it hahah but I can see it's not for everyone

When I first seen the headlights on the F30 back in 2012, I thought they were brutal, made the nose look droopy and ugly, especially compared to my E39, it just didn’t look like a BMW, i quickly looked at and drove the equivalent Audi and Mercedes, then quickly looked away because in reality they were crap and boring. I ended up buying an F30 and within a week I thought it was actually beautifully proportioned being both elegant and aggressive at the same time, it takes a while for the lines to make sense and I really am not convinced by this grill but it will look amazing and modern in a year or two. BMW know what they are doing!

@Johnnygga 3 жыл бұрын

This. BMW isn’t a juggernaut for nothing. Nobody owns them and THEY own Rolls Royce. I think the new big grille M4/M3 is getting a lot of flak because it’s incredibly jarring. Yet, everyone says in person it looks amazing. I guess they grille is more 3D in person. Besides, in a few years-you park the last gen M3 or an E90 M3 next to this new M4/M3 and those cars will look extremely outdated. Not in a bad way, just immediately you’ll know it’s “not the new one”. BMW is more brilliant that we give them credit for sometimes. They’re like Apple.

E92 was nicer than E90, and much more in character with the V8. Both also, in retrospect, benefited from being the last M3s which didn't suffer the indignity of spending their sickly, muted lives hooked up to a ventilator. But the V8 made them a bit too engine driven. A bit too AMG, or perhaps even wannabe supercar. The latter being why the coupe form suited it better than the more subdued sedan. The V8 was also too thirsty, per tank size, to function optimally as a GT out in the open, which is where that much pace makes sense.

@@elcapitan711 It had the range of a Tesla..... At similar speeds, the then new Panamera (I know, more of an M5) went twice as far on a tank. The V8 M3's range was short enough to be downright bothersome, in the Western USA. Which was one of the last paces where you could use that sort of performance much. The M3 is, also, too small of a car for a V8. Just as it is (or at least should be) too small of a car, for a blown 6 with 480hp. That even Chris Harris who, as opposed to me, supposedly knows how to drive fast, clamor for 4 wheel drive, rather proves my point. BMW should keep the M3 in the E36/E46 (and E28.....) realm, as far as power goes. A fast RWD ROAD car, and optimized for it. Only add power, to the extent tires improves. Then, if necessary, do an Audi (S->RS) for the spec sheet, and "alpha," crowd. Don't call it an Ms., though.......

@philips6182 3 жыл бұрын

E92 had an exciting engine, no denying that but in terms of driving dynamics and weight other M3s are better in my opinion. I remember watching a video of a BMW engineer explaining all the improvements in body rigidity and suspension that the f80 has over the e92 and plus even though the f80 is a saloon it still weighs less than the e92. A lot of people don’t like the f80 because the engine is turbocharged which I can understand but as an overall package I prefer the f80. I also think the f80 looks better than the e92 with its flared rear arches and super aggressive front.

I totally agree with Chris that F80 M3 is a gem. I've owned one for over 3 years & I love it. I use it for track days & daily living. It does everything I need & more. Plus there are tunes that make it much better in every aspect such as Bootmod3 & Thor. A set of Michelin PS4S tires are also a great fit on this chassis.

I think 🤔 if the height of the new M3/M4 grill was a bit shorter, it would allow the hood to slope further down and join the front in better unison, kinda like the sloping 8 series front grill. All the design engineers needed to do was that and the mug would look a ton more appealing.

It could be a grower if it has a matching rear-end design. Currently it just like two different cars, when seen from behind and front. But honestly, I think BMW will be "forced" to re-design the grill to maintain a positive sales.

Typical motoring hack, an almost “let them eat cake” perspective that’s totally out of touch with real-world car *ownership*. You can’t call an M3 a “great” car after being its custodian for only 1 year. Try actually owning a contemporary BMW AFTER the 3-year warranty expires, not basing your opinion on 12 months with a loaner from BMW’s press fleet. And no, a 2011 1M doesn’t count either.

@nickk707 3 жыл бұрын

@6th.replicant577 3 жыл бұрын

Are you inherently obtuse or is English not your first language? I wrote: “Try actually owning a contemporary BMW AFTER the 3-year warranty expires.” Note the word ‘after’, which does not mean he should run the car as a daily for 3 years. A car that’s “great” to drive isn’t always “great” to own *after* the warranty’s expired - eg, F10 M5.

@nickk707 3 жыл бұрын

6th. replicant you wrote “you can’t call an m3 a great car after being a custodian for only 1 year “ just FYI car journalist don’t review cars that aren’t brand new why would they reserve their opinions until after the warranty period ends, once again your comments has no logic.
