I love them all and have owned 3 different gens. The E46, E90, E92 and F80 all manual gearboxes but my favorite by far was the E92. The feel, the steering, the interior layout and comfort and that beautiful high revving glorious V8. Just perfect.

Day 6 of asking for a bicycle race between Mat and Yianni

Disappointed not to hear some M3 sounds Matt. I was out in my E46 yesterday giggling like a naughty school boy every time the rasp started at 4k rpm

I remember the first M3 racing at Bathurst with Tony Longhusrt as the marquee driver. Was awesome seeing it race against the V8 Aussie cars

Mat: I'm not a BMW Fan boy
Also Mat: Creates a entire video just for M3

Day 7 and still asking for Mat vs Yainni running race until they do it

Owned an e46 m3 for 6 years. Incredible car. Best car I’ve ever had

I've already seen a light grey M4 Competition in Austria and holy sh*t this car looks awesome in person!

Mat: Why are there so many bmw fanboys out there
Me: Idk ask yourself 😂

*Well E46 M3 GTR really counts where it matters. In heart.*

Any NFS and NFSMW fans will know.

Every Romanian dreams of owning an M3 E46, so they buy an entry 3 series E46 as their 1st car and fit M Sport parts to it. Lmao

My favourite M3s are the E36 3.2 and the E46 CSL.

If you'll ever go to the BMW museum in Munich you will understand, it's such an ingenious car with great performance history in BMW house.

enjoyed that video very much. i'm a big m3 fan boy, had a phoenix yellow e46 (sadly a vert due to being young and insurance) and then changed it for a signal green f80, currently running a custom bootmod3 map - absolute weapon!

The new series of up to speed is here! But different channel

[peter]

Stop asking for a running race or a bike race!!! It's so ridiculous and stupid.
I love what Mat is doing.
Please continue the great work.
Mat, you're our king 👑

M3 starts with the E36 for me, we never got the E30 M3 so BMW South Africa built the E30 325is 😍 which shared suspension with the original M3 and is a collector's edition.
