The E92/E9X generation of the BMW M3 will forever remain the only one to ever come with a V8, the S65 4.0L NA V8 that revs to over 8000 rpm. Now that this generation is essentially 10 years old, let's revisit the E92 M3 with my friend Steven! He sold his B8.5 Audi RS5 and picked up this Dinan modified 2013 M3 as his new daily driver. This was quite a fun video to film, a great drive and conversation with Steven!

My 2012 M3 has 241,000 miles on it and still going strong. I got it new.
Damn that’s impressive, any major problems?
When did you do your rod bearings
Great to hear that. Bought mine 6 yrs ago, pristine, stock, comp, manual, single owner, only 56k miles to date. LOVE it, intend to keep indefinitely.
E92 M3 is the Ring track car to have. With all these reviews on the E92 M3, prices are going up for the good ones. Dream car for sure!
if thats your 02 in the pfp then you have a car that will go up in price too :)
E92 M3 is a legend and will be a modern day classic. Bespoke engine and its classic looks have aged well.
Best M3 gen ever made!
As someone who’s put nearly 150k hard miles on the E9x chassis, I can tell you it’s a really hard chassis to beat. The experience of this car is what makes this car so amazing.
Common misconception that people have - low mile cars aren’t better than average/high mile cars. It’s all about maintenance. Low mile cars generally lack that.
Bought a e93 and I wish I saved up a little more to get a e92 with the competition package.
@@v8_sami competition pack is a waste of money. You get wheels, 10mm lower springs, and suspension that is valved differently.
By far the best M3.
Not the fastest but it’s my favorite all around M3
Pretty quick for a older car, mine is FBO and on E85
It’s slow
Best m car ever made I have drove every one and this car is unbelievable driving pleasure
@@kylewright7726 only one you drove roo
The most special of all M3 generations next to the E30. The last true M car to be powered by a bespoke, Motosport derived high revving, ITB equipped N/A motor. They have aged extremely well!
My M5 E39 and B8 S4 are 2 different beasts. But I need E92 in my life ofcourse manual. Never driven DSG nor automatic paddle shifting performance car. I can say beaten many with my 3 pedal vehicles which suprises many. I like this video and E92 SOUND never gets old!!!!!!
Who love turbos like track days, but for street driving no turbo and no supercharger. You don't need it. Beside it will suck your bank account fast..have two naturally aspirated, and just love them both 2010 E92 and a 2013 E92 M cars and nothing else has that type of driving experience..! You guys are great infomercial road testing experts for the brand.
I’m getting one of these shortly. The sweetest M3 in my view.
It’s my fav m3 period
Normally Im a JDM fan boy but the E92 M3 and the E63 M6 are still my guilty pleasures 😈
I’m
Glad this guy is doing well. Vehicle virgin did him raw
Hi from a Perth Western Australia. Nice work guys. I am on my 4th e90/92. Had a ESS 625 SC e92 , another e92 FBO and 2 e90 FBO , keep coming back to them. Definitely no need to SC the V8 , more fun as is. I have a full Akra exhaust with test pipes, it’s the quietest I have ever had but will add a full intake and plenum soon, I have finally learnt after 57 years that’s the way to do it. Honestly better off playing with carbon fibre drive shafts and lower ratio diff ratio if you want a supercharger feel. Now I need to grab a E 60 M5 before they get too expensive. I have a Ml63 with the 6.2 very fast but like BMW more I think so no C63 amg for me. You guys are right, I get nothing out of new crazy fast cars, this vintage is the best for true drivers cars that give back to you. M, RS, AMG Lexus ISF.Maserati 4200 GT , and or early Maserati QP with F1 transmission, pre 2008. That’s my list. 😬
Mind sharing what cars you went into before you keep going back into the m3?
Back when you had to pick between the Boss 302 and e92 I was really hoping for the M3.
My favorite M3, and the one I would be most interested in owning.
Amazing cars. Love mine. It's a bit heavy, probably its only drawback. They can be stripped down to close to 3k and it makes it an insanely capable track car, easily matching GT3 lap times at my local tracks with proper setups. But as a daily (only drawback mpg) or dual duty track car, its hard to beat. And you can find them in the mid $20k's all day!
I bought mine, a 2012 comp back in 2020 for only 27k cad. Somehow the car market went berserk and I sold it a year later for 50k. Still regret selling
These cars are so good. I always go back and forth between DCT or manual, my heart tells me manual
Same here but happy I went w manual, much smaller selection tho, most had DCT.
I had one. Great car! That DCT is wicked.
I had a 2013 E93 loved that car
Car of my dreams .
I got my E92 tcu tuned at a place in the PNW called 22rpd, dramatically changed the gear changes. There was little to no delay in thr dct gear changes. They made it perform like the f8x dct gear speed. Idk how they did it, but they did.
They probably just gave it the GTS tune or a variant of it.
@@soopermarkus very possibly the case.
Love my e93 m3
Weird how cars go through cycles. I weren’t really into the e92s - always preferred the e46 M3s, but how good does this look! Appreciation for these have gone up ten fold.
The M3 e92 GTS has a rear wing from the factory (which is fire orange btw).
Nice car you reviewed 😎, I am biased towards white e92s though as I have one 😁
E46 m3 is the best m3. Best size and s54 engine is a gem too.
Never did the rod bearings, just a battery and Throttle actuators.
I test drove one years back to buy, awesome package, but not on the same level as the GT350. Two of the top NA cars though of the last 15 years.
U need a front carbon lip on this thing esp on a white e92. It's a must. Changes the whole front end.
Has to be a manual for me,to each their own but if it doesn’t have a man pedal I wouldn’t buy one
I struggled with that choice, DCT excellent and about 80% sold in N. America. But I'm glad I went with 3 pedals, took me 6 wks shopping entire West Coast USA to find one that checked all the boxes.
I grew up driving manuals that’s why I’m bias,I don’t hate on autos but they are not for me
What’s the name the wheels and size
Lol why is the guy from valvetronic driving the car lol in the beginning
What’s name of those wheels and size
Would you get one of these or a W204 C63 as a long term fun car? Or maybe even a RCF?
I’m taking the E92 personally!
M3, no contest.
If you are debating on keeping it for a long time and sell it after get the RCF. But if you can keep up with the maintenance and don’t care about the money factor get a e92 m3.
Wheels are nice. What size?
Probably Apex EC7s. Same wheels every BMW driver gets
It’s not the only M3 to come with a V8 🫣
(Every e9x M3 UA-cam video says it’s the first/only/last V8 M3) 🤷🏼♂️
They are great cars 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
What’s the other?
@@Willfoster1978 e46 M3 GTR was the first M3 to come fitted with a V8 🧐
Dude's got a GT3 and an M3 - that's epic!
Yes no questions asked.
Why did you buy it? My friend always liked it......
😂😂😂
The only thing is the power numbers . I think noone came with 420hp like advertised.
M539 restaurations rebuild one with other cams and higher compression. It made 430 or something from memory. Normally they make 390whp. The e90 M3 (yes I like the sedan more) is/was one of my dream cars. I drove one back to back with a C63 and was much more impressed with the C63 (although I love the BMW interior). Bought a newer 4.0 twin turbo C63s tho :p
@@tubejorrit i'm looking between this and an e46 but here in europe prices went crazy high
But yeah i'm not looking anything post 2013
@@darklegion7780 I'm also in europe and I had the same problem. E90 M3 well over 40k and a nice example around 50k. That was just to much for me. Now I have a 2018 (pre-OPF) C63S for just 45k, makes 510hp and 700nm. I still have the BMW blood in me and when prices are a little but lower I will go for an F80 M3.
@@tubejorrit hope we get one sooner than later then 😅.
Conrod bearings ?
He said he's had them done.
Fuel consumption - how bad?
Yes.
What sort of driving?
Where was this shot in Phoenix?
Totally sidestepped the how much question...js
Dct trans sounds slow. Get the GTS tune
I will never forget that gearbox kick in this car, so special 🫡
This guy having a GT3 and a Mclaren saying that these are reliable after taking care of a few “minor things” tells you what you need to know about the maintenance costs of these.
That U turn in middle of the road at 7min ish was sketchyyyy
That was at the end of the road
To me it's not the best looking M3, I don't like the front or back that much. Great engine though! Did they offer a manual in the E92?
I’d say the E9X chassis M3s looks beautiful in the classical sense. The G80 looks like 🤮 though
Agree, too soft looking. e46 is the best looking. Yes, e9x came in manual.
Such a great car
Cool motor. Didn’t really care for the platform. Heavy. Steering not that great even in the era. The DCT is too slow. I do love manuals, but I do respect those that don’t want or can’t drive them. But no reason to get a DCT in this car.
DCT with the GTS tune is much quicker shifting.
Rubbish, the DCT is brillant even today, the gearing is too long in the maunal plus they are hard to find.
You both speak English really well!
I love the e92 M3🙌🏻
what😂😂😂
@@AliA-mz5oe bro what the hell is he on 😂😂😂
the best m3 e46
Find an lc500 owner
Great car but the lack of torque and lifeless feeling below 4k rpm means it feels like you’re driving a prius most of the time if you’re doing mostly city driving. Above 4k rpm is a lot of fun tho and sounds great. C63 from that gen is much more enjoyable as a daily but certainly worse if you’re gonna track it. Seating position in the m3 also feels like you’re refereeing a tennis match
You nailed it with e90 m3. Ended up enjoying the isf far more
Common complaint but the power band is very linear and throttle response is fantastic with the ITBs. You have to be prepared to use the revs. Just like a GT3. That’s a big part of why it is such a joy to drive. If you are looking for low down torque it’s not the car for you.
not even manual eddie aha...please dont tell me its analog when its autooo :'( aha...keep going man like your enthusiast !!
Tbh this gen of manual isn’t my favorite. It’s a bit rubbery lol
Blasphemy… the best M3 is the e46
Knock knock!!!
Who's there???
Rod!!!!
Rod who???
Rod Bearing!!!!!
The F80 m3 is a better car for your money. Yes the 9x m3 sounds great but thats about it. To extract any power from the e9x youll have to get yourself a bank loan aswell another loan to maintain it. The f80 its basically bang for buck.
Also the e9x never made claimed power. At best they would make sub 340 to 380hp max
If you love driving your car and getting feedback the 9x chassis is a lot better. If you just want to get in car and worry about HP get the F80.
🥴🥴🥴
Correct I own E92 M3 LCI I of 500 limited edition and with remap and primary cat delete it on produced 390bhp...but saying that these cars are still fast especially in M mode and running 99 octane fuel...
@@v8_sami I wouldnt say e9x is better chassis than f8x but for fun and what e9x is worth, you get m ore of a car than f8x and also e9x has that v8 and more like of soul.
Funny how a stage one tuned 335i with N54 engine is faster then the M3.
You mean the worst? Engine was total crap didn't last 100k, brakes was terrible, no steering power ,all electronic disaster....
What on earth are you referring to?
Too heavy, too numb
You must be talking about the G80 lol
@@EddieXunfortunately not. The e90/e92 is a pig . Always has been .
Of course the g80 is even worse in that dept.
At least the g80 feels stupid fast and is modern
3550 for a carbon roof manual is not terrible. The e46, with 80 hp less, was 3450 lbs. 3% weight difference.
The M3 F80 is the Best no doubt
nice m3 but W204 C63 all day over this car 😂
W204 doesn’t handle the or gives you the experience the E92 does . Faster straight fasho , more torque more power but E92 around corners and all around >
335i better 🤷🏽♂️
Uh
Yeah ok
I own both & NO it’s NOT!
The best m3 up to date is g80 ….. period
Overrated money pit.
Funny... I just saw a video of an e92 m3 that threw a rod in cylinder #3. But... "good cars" 🤷
