Super sports sedan - room to improve in luxury
Likes: Head-up display with road speed limit info; rev-matching downshift better than my heel-toe skills; LED headlamps (driving lamps would be a great bonus); full leather option worth it; classic BMW instrument panel; split screen for navigation/audio. Dislikes (room for improvement): can't reset default engine/suspension/steering settings--have to select M1 every time one starts up car; lacks rear middle armrest/cup holders; front air dam easily scrapes on sloped parking lot entries/exit; comfort access buttons only on two front doors (not available on rear doors like Audi's); side lane change assist non-functional at slower speeds (unlike Mercedes-Benz); top view needs a front camera; no synchronization button for HVAC; when CD ejects, it always reverts back to AM/FM radio even if satellite radio was last station played. Despite all the areas of details that would improve the luxury quotient, the sport attributes would make me select the M3 if I had to buy again!

The best M3 ever?
I've completed the 1200 mile service, and just completed my first BMWCCA autocross. I have the DCT gearbox, executive package, 19" wheels, full leather. The engine is sublime, eager to rev, power from the moment you step on the go pedal, and I actually like the sound. In my daily commute of 24 miles in heavy suburban traffic I am averaging 19.6 mpg. On three day trips (180-200 miles each) on country two lane roads we have averaged 26.7 mpg. The DCT gearbox is superb, it always seems to be in the right gear and shifts very smoothly. The standard suspension is the best compromise I have driven.

Best car I ever owned!!
Hands down.....the best vehicle I ever owned. After 4 years in a E90, I really appreciate the low end torque this one provides. 2017 M3 Comp 6 speed manual transmission. 👍🏿
Best all around sports car
The M3 is the best all around sports car. It is the bench mark that all other sports car are compare to. The handling is great with very good power. It is comfortable enough for a daily car also.

Another BMW M-3 Review
Test drive this car before you decide to purchase one, and remember the feelings that you get while experiencing a well thought out vehicle. Because you probably will not have the same sensation from another automobile. The handling,responsiveness, and comfort is very hard to compare with other cars in its class.
2018 F80 M3 6MT

2016 6 Speed Imola Red M3
Simply perfect. Have owned it for 9 months and haven't turned on the radio. The exhaust note, engine note make driving a pleasure. Perfect touches from every angle inside and out. 20,000 miles on the clock, and not an issue or complaint.
Blowing by expectations at high speed
Pure power, fun, and sophisticated design. Smart technology that delivers. It exceeds my high expectations. I got one of the last manual transmission M3s, and it already feels like a classic for the ages.

Best vehicle I have ever owned ... seriously!
I smile every time I drive the M 3 to work, and I smile more driving home from work. I ordered a manual transmission, an upscale leather interior, and the competition package (which gives the car over 440 horsepower and phenomenal acceleration), so I had to wait 4 months for it to be built and shipped, and the wait was worth it.

Bad ass bimmer!
Car is great! I’ve had M5s, Porsche 911, and thought about getting a Ferrari but the m3 is a ton of fun! Plan to track it too later this year.

The Right Choice
In August of last year I was debating if I should buy a F80 M3 or a C63S. I ended up buying the M3 and I couldn’t be happier. The quality of the interior is immaculate and it drives so well. The competition seats are also surprisingly comfortable and offer lots of lumbar support and a nice searing position. The car is 4 years old now and almost off of warranty and I have had no issues with the car. The m3 competition is the right choice.

Found my dream car!
Perfect! Obsessed!!
Love everything about it
I’ve had my 2018 M3 non-comp for a couple months now, and it’s just awesome. From the initial start-up noise to the aggressive looks to the relentless acceleration... it just feels right. The only drawback is the traction challenges at times, but I think part of that is the Conti tires. I’ll be getting Michelin when it’s time to replace them. It’s a beautiful car inside and out, and the versatility is amazing. With all the adjustable parameters, it can cruise peacefully or feel like a race car. Love this thing.
Incredible Car
