So Mark basically doesn't like everyday sporty cars, he only loves his commuters or pure sports cars. So this was basically a rant on which cars he doesn't like and less so a review of an example of a modified E92. Okay, Mark, we get it, it is not an S2000. And the comments about how interior doesn't look or feel special are nonsense, especially since this car is a stripper. A GT2 RS has the same interior, even can have the same seats as a Carrera. No one bats an eye.

Not true its just a counter point. If you want a pure design you have to go to more purpose built cars. There are way better luxury cars that do everything better. There are better sports cars, but the magic of the M3 is that it blends both. But in that quest it loses something. I was talking about this with a guy from ABT in regards to washers and dryer combos from LG. One device that does washing and drying, except it doesnt do either as well as seperate units. Its for people who want convenience or don't have the space. These mixed purpose cars have same problems as other things we use and buy. All season tires, low fat lattes, soy hot dogs etc.

So many collectible paper weights for all the bills that come with the car. Its a feature. Now all jokes aside, I do think if drivers warm this car up better, use lighter weight oil in colder climates, and baby it, till it warms up much like I do my ISF, I surmise those rod bearings would see a lot less wear. Anecdotal experience but what I've realized about many BMW owners is, new buyers beat their cars hard within warranty, no warm up, no waiting for the engine to get to temp. And then the cars inevitably take a shit years later. If more new owners were gentle on these motors pre warmup, they would prolly hold up better. But dollar for dollar spent, in the M3 one would be maintaining to keep stock power, in the ISF, that money gets you power mods. Can't hate on the M3 but at the same time, that oil weight was just too heavy for a street car. 10w60 is never going to warm up but will do better lap after lap.

They showed me the car, shut the hood gently since you’re inside this “BMW world” and it’s pretty quiet, and then down the ramp you go out the door. The autobahn is only a short distance, unlimited speed begins not too far from that. Keeping in mind the break-in period, I accelerated up to 80, then 90, then hit 100. Felt so strong, handled so well, I put my foot into a bit more. 110 then 115, now at 120 suddenly the left side of the hood came up! It never latched completely from the Welt!!!

@@stephenwilson2793 Indeed: "The BMW E46 M3 GTR came to life in February 2001 and was the first M3 in the history of the company to feature a V8 engine. The only reason that the BMW M3 GTR was made was to go along with the Le Mans rules stating that any vehicle raced must be produced in certain numbers for a certain length of time before the racing car starts its season. Since the Le Mans M3 GTR was a V8, the road car had to be, as well. To fulfill this rule, BMW put 10 road going M3 GTR models on sale after the 2001 season, for €250,000 each. The road car used a slightly detuned version of the P60 rated at 380 horsepower at 7,000 rpm - complete with dry-sump lubrication and sharply canted radiator with hood venting. Power was transmitted through a racing style twin-disc clutch to a 6-speed manual gearbox and variable locking M differential."

To Mark My best friends dad has this car, and when I showed him this video here’s what he said: “The bandaid kid is right” He said that the whole “you can drive it everyday to the shops” is totally false. The running costs and the threat of unreliability keeps it in the garage 24/7. And if he wanted a garage queen, he would’ve bought a more dedicated car anyways. He said it’s the worse of both worlds and the compromise sucks He’s only keeping it now for investment sakes, and only takes it out to stretch it legs, but otherwise, he said he would’ve spent his money elsewhere if he could go back in time. Right on point SG. I love your honesty, please don’t ever water down your criticisms because you’re worried that the fanboys will get upset. Honesty is why a lot of us subscribed to you in the first place. Also, maybe change your name to bandaid guy? Cheers

As an owner of both a 350R and an E92 ( slick top as well but I have Nav) , they are alike and different. The 350 is a bigger car, wider, louder, more crude, very grippy seats. The M3 is polished, quieter, thought I would hate the DCT, but have grown to appreciate it for an every day driver. Great content here as usual, thank you gents.

Always appreciate your honesty and going to review the suspension first. No one does a review as complete as yours.

The simplicity of the interior is a growing selling point when you compare it to the newer M cars with over styled interiors and digital gauges. Enthusiasts get too hung up on sports car specs, so at the end of the day most need a car that is a swiss army knife and not a samurai sword.

for someone like me who doesn't have the luxury of having multiple cars, my E90 M3 is the near perfect "One Car"

They're very reliable and serviceable. My oil change at Walmart was only $29.99 (with coupon). Tires only $49.99 each! America, what a country! 🤗

$50 each for tires? Good luck with such trash rubber.

Dream car. Will get mine in a few years for sure.

I watch these on my good tv, that’s how good these videos are. Not phone worthy, tv worthy

This is a dream car for me to own, I already see the prices increase you use to be able to find clean examples for like $15k now it’s $25k for something decent

Been a fan of your channel since the beginning 😎

Great video! Nice to see you guys teaming up with Obsessed Garage. I honestly think that the E9# 328i or 330i with a manual transmission and sport package is the better daily driver. It is not as complicated as the M3, weighs less, has better steering feel, has much better fuel economy, and has the sweet naturally aspirated inline 6 engine. It is not fast, but it does not need to be for daily driving. You can push it on regular roads without engaging in reckless driving in a matter of seconds. Coupling the E9# 328i or 330i with a dedicated sports car (e.g., E85 Z4, Porsche Boxster) is the better way to go in my opinion.

I worked at a Mercedes Benz dealership in 2014; someone traded in a 2009 E92 M3; the dealership got fuc*** on it. It needed like 10 grand worth of work. I guess they didn't see that when they were appraising it LOL.

@@cbrooks2767 i wasn't saying the procedure as such is easy. I reckon you have to disassemble the engine to change them. But I ain't no mechanic so I just went to my mech, he did it and it cost a fraction of what it would have if i left the faulty ones in and after a few days you can pick up your car. Easy enough for me, especially if you put it in relation to what could happen.

But not much else other than the sound! Try driving a couple of rounds in any track and you need to replace tires, brake pads and rotors after you exit feeling it's too heavy and not so well balanced. With the aftermarket parts you need for this to make it a proper sports car plus rod bearings and throttle actuator preventive fixes you have a lot of options out there. Much better gettng a manual E46 with proper history

I used to have e92 335i Le mans Blue/saddle brown interior what a great car it was, so much fun.

Perfect build, as usual.

So, everyone can agree that the E92 M3 was a magical vehicle. But I have to agree with Mark. These things are so ridiculously expensive to maintain that it just isn't worth it over cars offering similar capability like the S550 Mustang, or SS 1LE Camaro. It just isn't. But to all the people that can rightly afford these things and they can maintain them, all the power to you! We'll always love these cars, even though me as a "normal" person wouldn't touch ownership with a twenty foot pole lol.

I'd take an E92 M3 over any S550 Mustang besides the GT350 & even then it's close. The Coyote sounds horrible & the MT82 is awful not to mention the interior still sucks. The advantage of the E92 M3 is to my ears it sounds better than the GT350 & the throttle response is waaaay better.

I have one so I might be slightly biased, but YES 😆

The E90/92/93 M3s are one of those really special cars on the BMW timeline. They're light, tossable, lively and I love the character of the S65 engine. Yes, it is a quirky motor with ITB and rod bearing issues but they're well documented and have proper solutions to correct any issue. I remember when you guys tested Jack's Corvette Grand Sport and one major complaint was that the V8 motor, though powerful, had no character. This S65, despite it's light torque numbers, solves that.

I’ve purchased two of these. Love it. Love that it’s a want to be sports car. I added Apple CarPlay. It has the full leather. Alpine White over Fox Red. CFR. DCT. Just drove it from Boston to Florida to Orange County. Love it.

I kind of miss my e92 m3 , it just felt like a dog in low rpms though. I didn’t realize that you had to drive them in high rpm like a civic for them to come alive , but when you drive them correctly the sound is just amazing and they move out for real along with your gas needle.

Definitely a collectible. Yes the engine is special, but the design is also awesome, head turner. I think M took a sports sedan and took it as close as it could to a sports car while still being a daily, job done. If I had the space for a daily and a weekend car, would not want an M, an AMG, etc, but I only have space for one car, so these more extreme but daily drivable sport sedans are targeting my wallet!

Love the drone of that exhaust

That is the best looking BMW I have ever seen. Just gorgeous.
