I never understood why BMW split off the two-doors into the 4 Series. It's the same car and no one ever got confused about the number of doors when all of the body styles were called the 3 Series. This is a pretty decent M3. I agree that the styling is balanced compared to what was to come later. BMW has never made a bad driving M3. I'm not a BMW guy but if someone offered to let me drive one I wouldn't say no. I'd rather have an M2 though, it's more like the BMWs of old. Or an M3 wagon, the forbidden fruit. I wonder what Toyota the previous owner traded it for. Apple Carplay but no Android Auto: BMW probably thought only poors used Android and the iPhone is for classy people. There is a bit of truth there, when I was in college and even now at my tech job the only people with Android were techie people or people with a cheap Target phone plan. My computer science classes were probably 60/40 iPhone/Android, my other classes were like 90/10. BMW's been slacking off on their manuals lately from what I've heard. Now that manuals are the niche choice and automatics/dual clutches are faster/more efficient the development money goes to autos. I guess we should be happy that BMW is still offering manuals.
Last generation of a good looking M3 before BMW's design literally started going downhill. Like I said, the G80 is absolutely HIDEOUS as hell, same with the G82 M4.
I love the design of the F82 and HATE, HATE, HATE the design of the G80 (and hate people who buy the G80 in white or any of those other colors besides black). The G80 is absolutely hideous. So - F82: White or any color G80: Strictly chromeless black
@@someonecalledeulogio2280 I agree, but if you plan on buying the G80/G82 M3/M4, remember a few things. 1. Solely needs to be bought in black 2. No chrome Just remember the latter and you're all good. Any other color besides black or putting chrome around the front is strictly prohibited.
Great review man.
Love the review. Really cool looking M3! The only downside was the regular 3 in the infotainment, but I'm not complaining. 😄

The last good looking M3, IMO.
Yes I agree. Then it started looking really ugly afterwards.
So cool!

@@brianlee9233 the regular 3 series sedan of the g80 looks good. I also like all the other generations of the BMW 3/4
