Brutally Honest Review: BMW F80 M3 Competition

So today we are back with another Brutally Honest Review, and we have another BMW, this being the F80 M3 Competition, which is the first ever turbo charged M3! Now I have driven the E46 M3, I have owned the E92 M3, and I have recently done a review on the new M2 Competition, so how does this step up against them?

F80/82 is best looking M3 in my opinion🤤

[RiperSnifle]

I really don’t mind the noise, quite like the exhaust note actually

[dannyv]

You need to try a stage 2 with the GTS diff/steering map... completey different car to stock. Should have come out the factory like that👌👌

What’s more aggressive? The M3 or them roid spots on your biceps?

[Feledwards]

I just rented this car. I can’t tell you how amazing this car is. 2018 Competition, same blue color - and it is stunning to look at.

[rufustitus]

The standard f80 m3 feels more punchy low down, with the competition bmw changed to tourque band to feel more naturally aspirated

You're right about the recipe, I had an E46 sold it because it had things going wrong every week and the subframe etc but I miss that car ever single day, it was amazing and the sound it made was intoxicating, these new i6's don't sound like those old ones at all. Driving a 2018 diesel Mercedes now as doing high miles but would buy another BM in a heartbeat (then probably regret it if it's in the garage every week)🤣 wicked cars tho

You can turn the HUD off, i think its a neat future IMO. Comfort steering is best. I ❤️iDrive. Cant wait to find the right F80 M3 for me. Although I want an X5 haha.

About the rant in the beginning concerning the head up display: You can turn it off.

Me personally? I love head up displays, especially when I‘m traveling. Drivin‘ with the navigations and the HUD on is sooo much less stressing, cause you don‘t always have to take your eyes off the road to look at the headunit

Big up to your comments and strong willed opinion on rwd and diffs, that’s what the m3 symbolises after all. X drive is for those that have given up on driver enjoyment (winter wheels and tyres is all you need for those random months in the uk)

Cheers for renewing my van insurance lee 😆🤟🏼👊🏼👍🏼👌🏼 legend i thought i recognised the voice 😀

[gavinlamp]

unequal length down pipes is what makes it sound like 2 separate 3 cylinders. Personally I like the sound... but, the guys that do a single turbo swap and have a single DP are the ones that have the best exhaust sounds. Sounds like a refined German RB.

[KORCORP]

AA EL midpipe fixes the exhaust sound big time!

[trungdo]

This guy just did a review of a car without doing any homework on how any of the function works…. This is mediocre effort at best.

[mnbigd]

All you need is a $500 tune and it makes the car a serious weapon. Stock it’s just alright

[jamesgeorge]

Sw a black one the other day and it definitely stood out, I think some of the f80s do look basic for some reason, especially if it’s not sitting on the right wheels.

[andygerrard]

Love the m3, it's the 3 series after a course of suss and deca 💉

[pittmotoring]

For me i don't mind the noise, but still doesn't compare to the previous v8 that engine was mental, as you mentioned a Honda on roids 🤣.
Its all this tech and settings and what not that i don't like. Gone are the days of jumping in and off been able to enjoy it down some back roads without needing a degree in computer science and an hour setup before going for a blast. Nice honest review pal

[danwal]

I chose the e93 m3 over this m3..purely bcos of the noise...cant beat roof down v8 8600rpm...

[CarGuyLife]

Im glad im not the only one that doesnt like golf r's 🙈 🤮
