This is one of the most requested videos I've had in recent years, hope you enjoyed it! Massive thanks once again to my buddy Andy for helping me transport both cars to the location.

Have a great weekend everyone ❤️

Joe “doesn’t have the biggest production companies” behind him…. but produces some of the best content on YouTube…. 👍💥

Knew this would be the one to have. Never would have thought it until I drove the F80 M5, then you realise x-Drive is actually awesome. Great video.

"I don't have a massive production company behind me....!" Joe you could have fool me!... best BMW content in YT at the moment!!!! ... Thank you my friend!

[Kelveron]

0-60 mph in 3.1 seconds by an M3? I still can't my head round that!! That's quicker than the McLaren F1 for crying out loud!

[TimChump]

I admire your honesty and objectivity Joe 👍

[Jamalogo]

Dude driving like a legend. You've become a top 10 auto journalist. 200k subs by years end no question. Cheers Joe!

You're making me more excited for my xdrive order across the pond. Great video as always! Thanks for the comparison. 😎

Joe, we really need the M3 X Drive v M5 Competition. Lets see this, as nobody else has done this yet.

Joe has no idea how this video is gonna spark up another RWD vs AWD debate between the owners on the forums. For me, I had no choice since I wanted a manual transmission.

[zakjenner]

No production company but some of the best car videos out there. Top 5 for me. GO Joe

Hi joe yes x drive for me any day, I’m on my second 335d x drive tourer and been thinking of changing it for the 340 x drive tourer D or petrol ?, anyway more importantly after 14 months of treatment for cancer 2 big operations 6 months of chemotherapy 4 weeks every day of radiotherapy, my wife finally had some great news that all is good, now checks every 6 months, anyway we have all been through hell and our 2 daughters have really struggled, i have phone calls in the middle of the night and driven up to bring them home from uni, so iv been thinking of getting them a track day experience for them both as they both love cars, could you recommend any for us, we are in Grantham Lincs, anyway if you need help testing any cars just ask i loved to help. All the best mate Andy

A great comparison Joe. The xDrive does seem to be the best option, especially in the UK. That weight penalty really is negligible in a car of this size and power. I love the fact you can switch to rear wheel drive if you so desire. But I wonder in practice how often owners will actually do that? I’ll be fascinated to see if the same xDrive tech trickles down to the next M2…

[Douglas.Carrera]

Don’t forget, if you do decide to jump into an Xdrive, the LCI will start production next summer so you might as well wait until the redesign, or then you’ll consider upgrading again!

Skyscraper grey best colour and with the 🍊 seats looks 👌🏻

[Bmontepeque]

I really love how BMW have made the xDrive as good as the RWD one :O, And also, The M3's looks have really grown on me just from watching Joe's videos 😅✨

[garyclark]

Congratulations in advance on your new M3 X Dr. Absolutely a no brainer year-round car where you live.💯🇬🇧

[SKROHAAN]

The xdrive is the ultimate and the fact you can switch the diff. It's awesome. Good video Joe, lots of support from South Africa 👌
