I won't lie I absolutely love this machine. I have enjoyed 4 months of happy ownership and today we discuss why it is in my opinion the best new car bang for buck on the market right now.
Let me know what you guys think in the comments, do you agree or no?
See you in a week ✌️

I think the fact that is 80-90k is why I wouldn’t every buy one. Car prices are getting stupidly high now.
This....
You can always wait a few years and buy a higher mileage used one. Or you can easily buy the F80 gen for 40-60k depending on year/mileage.
Car prices are high and luxury goods (such as a BMW M3) are especially high. It’s just inflation. I mean have you seen the price of eggs?
@@tomw485 Well, I think that these cars should be owned before the owners get them that just own them for six month to brag with and use them without care. Im personally looking for a BMW m2 now, but the most of them have had 10+ owners and that is not my cup of tea.
@@jbmectronic4314 Look at it this way. A car under 90k USD can do 0-60s at 2.8s and post a 7:28 Nurburgring lap time. For reference that’s the same time that the Porsche Carrera GT, McLaren MP4-12C, and Lamborghini Huracan LP 610 all posted. The original 458 Italian and Pagani Zonda F each put up a 7:33 lap time. 10 years ago you had to pay 300k+ to get this kind of performance and these were in mid-engine supercars with no daily drive-ability or practicality.
You’ve never been able to go as fast for as cheap as you can now.
Just built a really nice one for 76k
What do you guys think? Best car on the market or just me 🤔 Get a quote for one here at Magnitude www.magnitudefinance.com/beckyevans
Perfect example of less is more, I think you've just done the OEM+ mods, the car looks spot on. As for the wheels, you're right, they look great out f the box, after market ones will just make the car look cartoonish - it's not needed. Glad it's not let you down Becky, I've done 15k in mine now and love every mile. I still have my E92 M3 and of course it's a different beast - I'll never sell that - but the G82 just leaves me thinking where does it go from here? It's just SO good.
couldn't agree more. I've had my E92 for 7 years and will never sell it, but my G80 as a daily is just so much car for regular needs, and can double as a track backup if my E92 is under the knife.
I got the new M4, wanted the CSL but i wasn't quick enough, i have the CSL front grille, carbon pack and Tom Wrigley 750bhp kit, bigger turbos etc etc now the car is a beast on track! I agree, they are a car that does everything, I've had 3 M3's and as my daughter is grown up I didn't need been doors anymore so went M4. Fancy new M2 next. Nice car and nice colour combo you have. Love it
So pleased to hear you're enjoying it so much, it is an amazing all rounder.
Beautiful car. I just took delivery of mine about a month ago (M3CX) in the same Tanzanite blue with carbon fiber exterior and interior. Went with Kayalami Orange interior with sport seats. Already have the front lowered via Eibach and 15mm spacers all around. Vorsteiner grill goes on soon. I’m in love with it so far!
Great breakdown! Just ordered a 108K USD build 2024 M3CX to replace my RamTRX as a daily/weekend track toy to keep miles off the exotics. I'm REALLY looking forward to it!
M3s look amazing, especially once you change the front grill to something more sensible. Your build looks great!
Great video. Nice recommendations on the g90, yours is lovely as well.
Hi Becky, I bought the Black M4 comp convertible new in December and it’s amazing! My question is, I’m from Northern Ireland and bought my car from Bavarian in Belfast but live in Cheshire. Would the Belfast - Liverpool ferry not be easier as I do that pretty regular.
Great car and glad you love it!
Oh, I got the comfort seats as I’m a big guy and the carbon weren’t so comfortable for me :-)
Awesome car but for a daily driver I would choose the M340i. Cheaper to maintain and a better ride.
I would have gone the same route if I didn't demand manual. I don't live in a city and have worked from home for 10 years so I don't really have a commute to speak of, which makes it easier to justify owning manuals. M340 is the sweet spot for a daily with AWD. B58 is amazing. I've got a '21 X5 and that engine is like butter power delivery with the zf8 programming.
You hit the nail on the head man, B58 with the ZF is perfection. Enjoy your bimmer in good health.@@jwardTLS
So happy you got one!
Beautiful car! 🤩 congrats on the new car !!
I have a 21 rwd g80 comp , in the same tanzanite color but orange interior, lovely car, set the boxs for everything, just change for the csl grill :)
Becky i love this car. Im a huge fan of thse cars. Tanzinite is THE COLOUR for this car. Lazerlights and carbon., X drive. This is the ultimate daily for me in the way id spec it. Becky you are WINNING. Im glad it drives as well as it looks
Currently at the point to decide if i want to go for the Touring or the regular M3 with a manual gearbox…like the space of my current G21 but also like a good BMW manual gearbox 🫠
Love your channel!!!
You named AMG, Audi RS, didn't name Alfa QV 🍀
Picked up an Aventurine Red Metallic M3 last week. My first M car and it’s AMAZING!!! Got the Competition version. The thing is a beast!
Nice review ! Thinking of switching to an m3 from my GLC 43
I think I saw you driving into Stratford a few days back in it! I really liked the colour looked great!
No way!
The looks aren’t subjective ….this thing looks insane
Good content. Nice rounded review 👌🏻
@Becky... You can shrink the resr head rests... Push the button on the side of them and they fold back... Making rear visibility better 👊🏼 you're welcome.
Gorgeous motor that is keep as it as long as you can then get the m3cs touring when it comes out .
I went from a Dravit Grey G80 M3 RWD to a Marina Bay Blue F90 M5 xDrive, both cars are utterly astonishing and make perfect DD cars, the M5 suits me better sure, but would I have another G80, you bet your ass I would, especially if it were as well as the M5.
more of the m3 please.
I agree. I have a 570S that I daily'd for a while, and recently added a manual G82 M4...and the M4 is an absolutely perfect daily, but also terrific performance car. The Mac still gets plenty of use, but I enjoy the M4 way more than I thought I would.
Rubbery manual gearbox though and limited torque capacity. The auto is better for most people, and yes I've driven manual cars for decades
@@fzr1000981 It's an improvement over the F80 manuals. Good clutch feel, better shift action. I'm not looking to add any more than 60WHP to it with a basic stage 1 tune using a US 91 octane map. I personally prefer the manual.
@lockingdiff CT5V Blackwing is a much better manual and I'm hardly the only one saying that
@@fzr1000981 I don't really care about the CT5V, how it looks, drives, and the interior. My only let down with the G80/82 is the front...which I've already fixed with the Adro bumper.
@@lockingdiff RS7 definitely looks better
I agree I think the G80 M3 is a great daily driver. I've finally decided after a lot of deliberation to get an E92 M3. It will be a weekend toy mostly so the petrol bills shouldn't be too ruinous. From what I gather the DCT is a great gearbox but I'm leaning towards a manual for the added involvement. The only issue is most of the later cars seem to be DCT with manuals mostly seem to be 2007 or 2008 cars with the odd exception. Are there any must have options in your view? Is EDC a must have? and is it worth trying to get into a later Competition model?
Manual on the m3 would be sick weekend car id go for the manual it will rise in price too
Def go manual on the e92 m3. I love mine. As far as EDC it depends on what you are doing with it. I put coil overs on mine which deletes the EDC. Later comp model will cost more. I went with a low mileage 08, saved about 20k and put that money towards mods.
Epic daily !! 🏆💙
The best!
Those bucket seats are uncomfortable in my opinion and difficult to get in and out of. Is a brilliant all round daily driver with the exception of those seats.
I got a F82 a little over a year ago. Even though I love it, I'm kinda looking at the G82 and thinking ..... hmmm, should I? Only thing that's holding me back is the loss of the DCT 'box. Do you notice the ZF lacking in any department over the DCT? Especially in paddle-shift mode? I love the DCT. I had a 335i and the one thing I couldn't abide in it was the lag in shifting in manual mode. You had to shift about 500 revs before you wanted to shift.
I haven’t driven a G80, but from the videos I’ve watched, the auto seems to shift very fast, certainly a lot faster than the older torque converter autos of yore.
With an xhp tune the zf transmission shifts quick like a dct some say it's faster
Went from a F82 M4 DCT to a X3MC with ZF8. I have to say the new ZF8 is very fast; however, less engaging. It's much smoother, but it's missing the mechanical feel. You won't be sacrificing speed, but you will not get that kick anymore when you shift (at highest shift speed setting). At least I miss that feeling very much.
Best all rounders going Becky.
Performance.
Practicality.
Looks.
Handling.
The M3 Touring feels more settled than the saloon & the exhaust note is more prominent.
As for the new M2.... the manual is way more engaging than the auto.... also, at last the manual shift is short, crisp & precise (the rubbery feel to the shift that all manual boxed BMs have been saddled with has gone!) 😁.
Your M3 looks wicked in Tanzanite 👌🏻
touring its the same car
Touring would be the one for me. Currently in a cheater estate cupra and can't see me selling it dies everything u need and 35+ mpg
What about the steering feel? I’ve heard that’s one of the biggest complaints - the steering feels dead. Thanks!
Edit: nvm I got to the end of the vid
I just cannot get past the front grille. Nice car otherwise. I like the understated colour you have also.
I have been driving BMW for over 25 years. I just can’t move to other brands. My latest G16 840i GC is of course the best. Ultimate driving machine!
Same here. First one was an E34 in the early 90s. Currently driving an M850 GC and just took delievery of a 24 X5 50e.
How are the carbon seats holding up? Any wear etc?
Really well. Not a mark! I jsur give them a little clean and hoover now and then and they are as good as new 👍🏻
I think the oem wheels look amazing on the g80 than anything out there.
Station Vagon (touring) is AMAZING!
M3 or Model 3 can't go wrong for the fun factor even as a daily
Had a G80C for about 1.5 years . . . just did not do it for me. Prior to the G80C I had an F87C that I absolutely loved. Thought moving into the ///M icon and big brother would be even better. I was wrong. The G80C is a tank with a rocket launcher under the hood. . . the rocket launcher is good, while the tank part is bad. The G80C is just too damn big and heavy . . . and the nothing can hide either.
Just picked up my G80 M3 competition xdrive today!!!!!!
Congrats!
Thanks!!!!
What about the Alfa Romeo Quadrafoglio?
I used to have a cleft pallet too.
Did you! I’m sorry to hear that x
Would you say the ride is soft enough for long drives/commutes? And how does it compare to the RS5 in that regard?
Yes absolutely. I have driven RS5 and the four wheel drive system isn’t as fun as the xdrive.
@@BeckyEvans thanks so much for the reply. Considering an individual spec M340i and after all the options it’s getting up to nearly 100k CAD, which is very lightly used M3 prices.
Having tracked our M3 G80 RWD at Goodwood, You have to do it.....................
What is the ultimate 1 car garage out of the BMW M3 or the Audi RS4 ?
Ahhh that’s a hard choice. I’d say m3 touring!
Hi mate, love your content on youtube. Love the G80 M3. Have you seen Mr Jww's new vid in conjunction with AutoID, they do an awesome body kit for BMW's... have a look mate.
Fun video 👏
Super car. Looking at a second hand 16 m5
I find G80 the best looking modern M car. It’s so easy to spot now compared to 3 series / 4 series.
I got my G80 in June with a 6MT and daily it. For the money, it's so much car for the money. I don't think you can do much better for a daily. We have plenty of snow where I live and RWD + snow tires is just fine. The F80 isn't really comparable because the way BMW tuned the engine for that car, all the torque comes on very low and breaks the rear end loose erratically. The G80 is far more balanced and progressive with power delivery, which makes the RWD version MUCH easier to drive in inclement weather. I don't fault anyone for getting the AWD version, but it's not really the same thing comparing RWD F80 to RWD G80. I also have an E92 M3 that I've owned for 7 years and have never had an issue in bad weather with it. Very neutral.
Funny how this popped up for me to watch...
👋 Apologies for being right on your chops 😂 commuting made fun 👌
Great points on the g80 though, strong contender for my next car, who doesn't love an M car that can do everything!
Haha is that you in the m2! Small world 😂😂
I'm more than a aldi man than a bwm but they are all right and where there heading looks cool too
Oooo rx9... anyway something I thought I'd never say but bought a golf GT, that's definitely a car that seems to do it all. Dam site more economical than my SL R230. But get where your coming from if you have that money a m3 is always a good shout
Great update Becky. Go for the touring, the arse end alone make it worthwhile 🙂
My dream next car😍😍😍
That is one stunning car just brilliant 👌👌👌
Thank you!
I nearly went for the M3 tourer, but couldn’t quite forgive the fragility of the finish on the back of the bucket seats and how uncomfy they are for a daily entry/exit… it was a tough call, but in the end went for an F Pace SVR which has a bit more practicality, and that brutal supercharged V8 that sings out of the exhaust.
You know they have these things called Sport seats, which don't have carbon backs and are easier to get in and out of.....
The EU has already legislated to allow internal combustion engine cars to be built if they run on efuels. Surely the UK will have to follow suit after 2030, due to the low take up of EVs currently.
Do performance mods to your G80
Cool you were in Ireland 🇮🇪 sadly M3 starts at 1450000 euros here...
G80’s a beauty. Didn’t know it’s X-drive
Dont buy a manual M2 Becky. I borrowed one yesterday, felt big and heavy, and the manual was a faf, compared to the ZF box, and i actually felt, it slowed the car down somewhat. These cars are all about ultimate performance, and the manual just isnt that, i think you would regret it. I really want to try the M2 with the ZF in CS guise, when it lands, but i still dont think it will trouble the g80s, unless, it comes with X Drive, which i dont think it will.
Anyone know what are the 2 sensors above the m3 badge on the seats?
They're bolts that hold on the headrest padding, which can be removed if it gets in the way when you're wearing a helmet.
g80 m3 or m5 f90? and why
If I had your BMW, I would have replaced the black rims with silver or chrome rims, it would have lifted the look of the car to the dark paint. Then I grew up with old American cars and they always have chrome rims.. I think these black rims ruin the overall impression while silver or chrome would have lifted. Just look at Tim from Shmee150 on His Ferrari SF90 and GTC4Lusso both painted blue and the latter dark blue and the silver rims lift the cars output.
In general, the blacking out of rims and body trim is a trend I don't quite understand. It is mentioned frequently as being more sporty and giving a more sinister look but in most cases I find that it detracts from the overall look and looks cheaper as well. It has a certain "base trim" look, though that might be a weird explanation. Don't know, it's likely just me because blacked out is insanely popular but in most cases I think chrome or another accent colour works better and lifts the car up much more. It also hides much of the detail of certain car parts like rims and bodywork I think, you can hardly make out the design when it's fully black. There are exceptions though, certain cars do work like that but it's usually cars that are fully blacked out, inside and out. I realize this is an unpopular opinion but that's how I view it
I agree with you that it looks cheap and full. I grew up in those days when all cars had black steel rims with a silver plastic cover on the outside, usually the cars lost these and you could see the ugly rims. This is precisely what these black failures remind us of. Then I hate black interiors, because it becomes so dark and gloomy. Then what is also popular that also spoils the appearance of the cars and that is to paint or foil all the chrome on the car black, it also spoils the overall image of the car. I think that those who do this today do not understand the design, color and shape of the cars. They destroy the whole thing instead of lifting the beauty.
Chrome grill and rims are standard. The car comes with a black package that charges more
The black destroys the car. just idiotic.
I love mine so much!! Enjoy!!!! 🎉
Have an F82 in Tanzenite blue. BMW do great sports cars.
The front grill looks a lot better than a lot of BMW's lol
Amazing car ❤
I am pleased you like it Becky, and I like all your videos but I can’t handle this car aesthetically it does not have one good design angle from any angle. Let’s get James view.. ❤😂 ask Frank Stephenson for an opinion… my daily is a C7 RS6 and I understand the daily aspects.. keep enjoying it because it’s yours….and I agree it’s okay to disagree.😂
We're currently in summer what's up with the ducati.
It's looking like a wasted purchase
Especially a ducati (not the cheapest bike)
Haven't seen any content with it since purchase
Literally haven’t had time to ride it. My work comes first and the weather has been terrible. It has been sat in my garage waiting for a day off and some sunshine. Have faith 🥹🥹
@@BeckyEvans appreciate the response
All in one ❤
If I could afford 80k sure , but for me 25k was a jump and I’m happy with my i20N as a daily do everything car
If you change the wheels, go BMW 1000M, they suit the M3 so well.
I need to buy a G80 M3 asap, but does it have any towing capacity?
Towing capability.... WTF. You're looking at the wrong kind of car completely dude.
Get a touring! But I’ll be honest I have no idea of towing capacity haha
@@chiganuggoo9929 no dude, I need to be able to tow my classic bmws around
@BeckyEvans I can't find any details yet, to be continued 🤣
@@AlexMTX Ahh, I see!
Vicky, try the G80 1BMW estate M3
Sorry, Becky
I prefer this M3 in the touring model.
I think the new m2 is sweet. I’m not a bmw fan boy but do like the m2.
wait till you get close to 18,000 miles (about 29,000 kilometers), the exhaust sounds way better! it sounds really nice in my M4 :-)
Sure if I had a spare 60 grand knocking about I might consider one but then again probably not as I'd not want the immense depreciation that would come with a car like this. Hope anyone considering one will wait a few years for prices to bottom out and doesn't get sucked in by "influencers" that say things like "you must buy..." whilst simultaneously publishing affiliate links to finance companies. It's kind of irresponsible to be honest.
They have actually dropped in price quite a bit already. A new will.set you back 84K. If you are prepared to buy a 12/18 month old you can get them for 68-70K. I don't see them dropping that steeply in the next couple of years. Yes, maybe a high mileage one, that's also not within warranty anymore.
The grille looks better like that but it almost highlights that bit sticking out where the badge is. Looks like a pimple on the nose job.
You forgot alfa Giulia QV ? Or are u just comparing AWDs
my only beef with these type of cars is they look a tiny bit like 'cool dad' car but tbh I'm picking fault for the sake of it there :) M3 is the best looking of the current BMW's though
I absolutely LOVE my g83 M4, Pictured in my profile. BEST car I have ever owned!!!! EVER!
Fantastic colour!!
@@BeckyEvans Thank You, It is a good Colour and get loads of attention.
Next time you’re in dublin give me a shout 😉
Post 2020 M550 best overall daily.
"The tits" 😂 not heard that term before made me lol
Although its way more car than id need i am please that BMW still offer different coloured leather interiors options
How did that washer fluid taste haha :P xx
Great car love my M4 thirsty bastard for a daily but smiles per gallon is worth it
M3 old new ❤
8:30 I was thinking about Alfa romeo giulia quadrifoglio
Imagine having her as a girlfriend on a long trip on the German Autobahn to Austria just chatting away about the m3 and other cars..... the fucking dream...
All M3s are nice
When will the Ducati street fighter make another appearance on the channel?
When it stops raining 😫
Ye I would. If I could afford it.
Evening Becky
Sound motor 😊
