New BMW M3 vs Porsche 911 - REVIEW with 0-60mph & brake test!

.............................................................

Do you have around £85,000 on your next car? Then look no further… We’ve brought together the BMW M3 Competition and the Porsche 911 Carrera to find out which car you should go for!

When it comes to performance, both of these cars easily offer more than enough! Starting with the BMW, it’s powered by a 3-litre twin-turbo straight-six which can deliver 510hp & 650Nm of torque. It’s RWD, and BMW claims it can hit 60mph in just 3.9 seconds.

As for the 911, we’ve only got our hands on the entry-level version, but its 3-litre 6 cylinder twin-turbo can still deliver 385hp & 450Nm! Just like the BMW, it’s also RWD (obviously), and can hit 60mph in 4.2 seconds.

So, the BMW costs £87,000 (with options added, that is. The starting price is £75,000), while the Porsche starts at £83,000. The question is, if you could afford it, which would you go for? Let us know in the comments!

Tire noise isn't an issue when you're have a talkative wife or a good stereo system.

[DarrylRadcliffe]

Just casually mentions he’s going to be a dad at the end there. Congrats Mat.

This channel has become hands down my absolute favourite car channel ever.

When you’re so early that people aren’t asking for a foot race between Mat and Yianni 😆

[AveryObsidianXylia]

For the ‘entry level’ 911, it’s performance is extremely impressive.

Can we all appreciate the BMWs colour” Isle of Man green “

I have tried to like that front on the M3/M4. I really have. But I just cant. Side and rear design is awesome though.

[newtsarmy]

Great video as always - thanks for the content. Might have been better comparing M4 v 911 - as anyone needing the practicality of decent rear seats is probably more likely to buy the M3, or RS4 or Alfa. Unless they’re just play things and rear space doesn’t matter.

Matt: How many times of 0-60?

Porsche: Yes

[husseinibrahim]

Damn it, I am addicted to your videos Mat. Thanks for the insanely hard work you put in everyday to come up with a new great video.

[edcunhaph]

Can't wait for the "What's the best Sportscar to carry a baby in" video soon! :D

[ruhaan]

Mat: *Is having a baby*
Also Mat: "So what exactly happened"

"Quick, but not as quick as a 911" is becoming the motto of Carwow.

[SergCarReviews]

Mat just practicing on the cars now. He’s getting real good at

[jimbo]

There's nothing 'entry level' about a base 911. Solid car 👍

[ahsan.v]

Love the Porsche's design but I'd buy the M3 if I had the money as it is just special that a practical 4 seater car has that good performance.

[rowlandortiz]

The "human rights" part got me laughing hard. Lol.
