      Really grown to appreciate it, saw one in the flesh for the first time last month and my god is it mega cool! Especially in Isle of Man Green, its beautiful. Interior, banging, exterior, good, so first impressions were great! When I get my first job, I will definitely save up for one, after I have settled my Alfa Romeo Giulia love first!

    This car has grown on me pretty quick, I did not like the grill when I first saw it but the more I look at it the more I like, the humps on the bonnet going into the bumper and the grill look pretty aggressive, I actually do rather like it now.

  • @nightdriver7216

    This is one review I've been waiting for ever since I got hooked on Autotrader. Let me first say again Rory you're on a league of your own when it comes to reviewing cars. With regards to this car, whether one thinks it's ugly or beautiful we can all agree that it looks striking & compelling. I personally love what BMW has done. Lately manufacturers' top performance cars look like normal versions with just added body kit/extras. This car looks different. I love it. Also, I've always been a fan of a 2 door M3 (or M4 lately) & have never really liked a 4 door version BUT this time around I love the M3 more than the M4. Lastly I also agree with Rory that Beemer & Benz have pulled out their A game when it comes to interiors. Audi used to make the best looking interiors but it's been unseated by BMW & Mercs. I love this car. Just 2 wishes, I wish it didn't share that grille with the ordinary 4 series & I also wish it did not have to have a front number-plate. Did I mention i love this car?

    It's interesting how a lot of reviews and reviewers describe torque figures. Torque figures detail mid range power, therefore you'd be saying that peek mid range power comes in at about 3000-5500 rpm, reaching maximum rpm power at just over 6000 rpm.
