E90/e92 is da best

Bought my 2011 e92 M3 brand new, still own it and love it just as much as the day I got it. Still turns my neck around to look at it to this day. That S65, just a different driving experience, nothing else like it. One of the best BMWs ever made. Super reliable too.

Damn mate, can i share my email with ya, am interested in that machine, especially bought new with original owner..

Guys! Congratulations on the clip. You really captured what the E9X is all about; it is the pinnacle of BMW M powertrain engineering. Their best engine ever made - with the best transmission they ever made. Your comments about the MDCT are spot on. Quick tip; pair S6 with Power button on. It will make the shift speeds extremely fast, yet you will not upset the chassis when shifting with a steering angle by being slightly off WOT.

The prices of these cars are skyrocketing right now

The quality in this is crazy! Deserve way more views!

Great video. I’ve had my 92 Comp pack for 6 years and still bloody love it. You do have to drive them for a while to get them. They are truly epic cars.

I had a guy on a big motorbike behind me in my M3 E90, I floored it down a twisty hill and pulled up at some lights. He pulled along side and tapped on the window, at first I thought he was a policeman. I wound the window down expecting a telling off! He lifted his visor and said "Good grief, what the hell is this thing? I could only just keep up with you " hahahah

Bit of consumer advice from an owner here, my DCT coupe 2010 genuinely achieves 27 MPG on a gentle run. Buy one now. I daily drive mine too, 50 miles per day commute. Coming from a 330d I was worried about fuel/service costs but they are nowhere near what I had anticipated! Again, buy one whilst you still can!

I have the e92 m3 competition, I get about 18 mpg average but that's on crowded southern California cities. Otherwise on highways I'd be doing 24.

I've driven a lot of cars. I get out of Aventador SV's and Pistas and still love my E90 more than anything else out there. Except anything Porsche. Best M car ever made. Best BMW ever made.

Wow - glad I found this one. I daily my black on black e90M3 with Akra, Ohlins and ECU/DCT tune. It is a magical car. Totally agree will your assessment. The throttle response is very precise (savage). You really need an accurate right foot. The V8 is out of this world and syrupy smooth and the DCT with a GTS tune is supreme - only very slightly slower than the PDK in a 991 Porsche GT3RS. Is this better than an e46 M3 ? The motor and the DCT definitely are. Heavy on the fuel and you need to replace the bearings and the two throttle body actuators will die - these are just maintenance items IMO. BTW - new sub :)

I bought one for rural far N. California a few yrs ago, 2011 comp coup, love it in the mountains or any open road or wide freeway onramp.

Amazing car but nothing on an E60 M5. Modified with a custom exhaust, full carbon intake and plenum is unbeatable. Once learned the SMG is genuinely amazing but you'll need to own one to understand, not just drive one for a few hours. A warranty with the above creates absolute driving perfection.

Such a beautiful car!! So much more class and elegance than the tacky new M3 styling..

As the Mrs allows me a 4 seat convertible alongside my main car, this was my number 3 choice after the c63s vert and v10 M6 vert. Luckily the c63s is stupidly expensive still, theres hardly any M6 verts so i bought the M3 vert and got rid of my v8 6 series. Off the bat i can feel the brakes struggle with the weight (the brakes are weak and were weak on my e46 m3) BUT the turn in , handling and connectedness to the road are magical. with roof down , the sound is simply euphoric. Ive owned quite a few cars with incredible exhausts 6.2l, 5.5l, 4l 2l AMGs but for overall emjoyment this is up there and the cabin isnt over insulated so i can enjoy it with the roof up and windows up. The ride is very busy all the time and its stiff but my kids dont seem to mind so thats a pass from me too. If the engine wasnt amazing enough already, the DCT transmission is incredible for quite an old generation of car. As everyone mentions, keep a warchest of cash for maintenence and note the 700quid road tax. Let that thick oil warm up properly before revving above 3.5k etc Other than that, i think theres going to be further drops to the prices of these as the 2nd hand market is tanking

Great video. Ive got the F80 M3. I've had it for a year and I thought it what was going to be the one.. but now I'm desperate to find a E92 M3. I need one in my life.

I love mine, but have the Alpine Coupe version. It’s very versatile, but of course the saloon would top it for practicality. The DCT is perfectly suited for the car in my opinion. I drove manual and the DCT and am pleased I went for the auto. And the V8 soundtrack is infectious. Brakes could be better if I am honest. The only thing I would change is a slightly longer top gear for long distance motorway work, but the upside is I hunt for A and B road alternatives. 😀 Even my 4 year old Granddaughter adores it. She gets a little miffed if anyone suggests using my partner’s Qashqai. Once secured in a booster seat her first comment is usually “make it growl”. 🤣

10:56, lol... never been lucky enough to drive one of these, but I think I'd agree with you guys... If I had to decide I think I'd have an e46 M3... I have a slow one and love the chassis. Edit... actually you guys reminded me this comes in a sedan which unfortunately was not offered in the e46, so maybe I'd have this instead! I'd have to go manual, even if it is slower... E46s are just so damn pretty though...

I need to come out to bloody all England and give you guys a driving lesson

I bought a the Coupe brand new on a 59 Plate. Plus points, stable, comfortable, quiet- relatively speaking spacious, an engine noise to die for, with incredible brakes , and it revs out at c 8400 revs, which never fails to stop putting a huge smile on yours and your passengers face. Assuming you are mad enough to go near the limit for to longer a period. Now for the downside. Servicing, and replacement parts, dear fvcking me . And the worst is the petrol consumption. Once a week, I would do the round trip, between London and Bristol, where I averaged 17 mpg, if I drove like an undertaker. Ordinarily, it was averaging 14 MPG. As much as I tried to get more MPG out if it, it was impossible. The car just wants to go forward all the time in any gear and throughout the rev range. It is impossible to drive anything other than vigorously. I was comfortably doing a 100-120 quid a week on petrol, which is mad. I have ordered the new one, where delivery is due April 2022. I do wonder if I will miss the noise, but the trade off is you get 28 MPG on average, and from the various reviews I read and see a car which is as fast as most super cars from five years ago...........

Love the E90/E92 M3 but the hype over NA given the tunability of modern boost control combined with now tightly integrated electronic throttle bodies. Nowadays not only are the forced induction cars making 50-60% more power (stock) but they're also way more tunable and can feel nearly the same as the NA car with either more power or better MPG depending on the selected driving program...Time will tell however whether the B58 suffers from self destructing rod bearings.

It's quicker in general, it's fun but the dynamics of the M3 are better all around. IMO I like BMW, Mercedes, and Audi the most when it comes to sports cars. But something I don't like about Mercedes and audi is that you pay so much for a car that looks like a c300. They suck at designing aggressive bodies. You'd have to fall for the black series bodies to get something aggressive. With audi, same thing but the after market parts seem wider.

The s65 in the e92 is a great engine as long as you look after it properly, but an m3 with a howling NA straight 6 under the bonnet and a manual transmission will always be the most iconic in my mind.
