Ever since the E90/92 the M3 has been more fitting with the DCT than the manual. While it's cool that they offer a manual, most modern performance cars are just better suited with an auto. Cars these days are not as playful as they used to be. The only cars that really go well with a manual are Porsches and lower powered performance cars (gt86, Miata, civic type r).

@@nozopoke1782 rev hang is when you upshift and the car struggles to lower rpms or just does it slower, which forces you to leave the clutch in longer, it doesn't keep you in the power band at all, just slows down shifting
@@jonathanflaig8799 - There are several possible reasons for rev hang. One of the most common is emissions in port-injected engines. Because the fuel is injected onto the backs of the intake valves, not all of the fuel enters the cylinder after each injector pulse (some liquid fuel clings to the back of the intake valves). Rev hang is used to keep the RPMs high for a bit to clear that fuel off of the backs of the valves and then combust it in the cylinders. Otherwise, the fuel would pass through the engine without combusting, and raw hydrocarbons going out of the tailpipe is bad for emissions performance. Another reason is that it's easier to drive for people who are inexperienced at driving manual transmission vehicles. Someone who shifts slow (like a beginner stick driver) could let the RPMs fall below where they should be for the next gear. Holding higher RPMs gives a new driver like that extra time to complete the shift.
I always get surprised to see that this channel does not have a lot of subscribers, this channel is easily worth of million subscribers, Topher is great and been the same for years now, that he is genuine and humble! :) Quick question, where in states have those beautiful roads and temps still at 42? Here in NYC it feels like this state is now outside of Earth and is bit closer to the sun lol :D 100 degree days :C
Having a manual makes even mundane drives around town infinitely more engaging. With an automatic the transmission upshifts to 6th, 7th and 8th at 40-50 mph. I test drove an MK 7.5 GTI with a manual and absolutely loved it coming from an MK6 with a DSG. I forgot how fun a manual was. I ultimately chose an MK7 GTI Sport with the DSG simply because it was $8,000 cheaper even though it had the same amount of miles and was just as well cared for (a 2017 vs. a 2019 makes a big difference in price). Sometimes (but not always) I wish I had a manual. The DSG is phenomenal in its own right though.
Not to be pedantic, but the extended carbon fiber you see on the deck spoiler and rear and front bumpers is a $ 4,700 option. For carbon fiber on the interior only (steering wheel, center console, dash trim), it's $ 900
I almost bought a M4 but settled on the RCF. Yes, the M4 is performs better but I just see so many similar looking BMW's around and wanted something more exclusive, not to mention the V8. I'm happy with my choice. Just wish the RCF came with a manual.
Awesome machine. So much better rounded than the previous generation. It performs better, yet it has a nicer interior too. Engine definitely sounds better too!! I'd definitely go with the M3 with a stick. Exterior proportions are much better on the M3.
@@omitence Yeah I test drove the Civic Hatch and the Si and they both irked the hell out of me. Ended up with a Mini Clubman, which has its own quirks, but I digress. My E46 is still the most amazing car to drive. The shifting in modern cars just doesn’t compare.
@@sterlingsilver320 facts i loved my e46 was a beautiful experience to drive. Got a bk1 2.0t genesis now, 6 speed manual. Doesnt even compare to the e46
I agree, I daily a 10th gen si and the rev hang was pretty bad but I never noticed cuz it was my first manual car. After I got a tune that deleted rev hang it was a night and day difference. Way more comfortable to drive now. Annoying that you have to get a tune to delete it though
That interior is so incredible, am I seeing correctly that those seats can support an Anti-Submarine belt Harness (5 or 6 point? ) The only other thing I wish it had would be a flat-bottom steering wheel... know it can be added aftermarket but still.

Nice! That extended leather looks great. The blue looks terrific also. I like the dash ten times better than the gigantic iPad for a dash that the life-cycle cars get.
I thought that after the M10/M20/M30 engine generation there would not be a good sounding BMW engine. But this engine sounds like what a typical BMW should sound like. If you have a barbecue somewhere in the garden, then you should hear that the buddy is coming with the BMW.
In German vehicles I think BMW and PORSCHE are the only brands still offering manual transmission options.simply love a PORSCHE or a BMW with a MANUAL ❤️
@9:40, no, the real reason for the 8HP slushbox is the AWD M xDrive ystem that's coming later this year. Bringing the costs down by sharing powertrain bits with other models sure also was a good reason as well. Remember that the F10 M5 with more torque than this had the DCT which was then put in the F80 M3 later on.
Nobody dares to criticize anything these days, that's the problem with the world. Everything looks good, everything performs good, everything is nice, everything is awesome,...

Topher, great video, but it's a shame BMW doesn't offer the manual in the 340i. This is too gaudy. BMW used to be all about subtlety and restraint for styling.

One thing is certain. This ain't no long distance cruiser. While short gear ratios are great for going at it like a hooligan, the engine sound is too present at 3000rpm, or thereabouts, for comfy, noise free cruising to a vacay destination.
As always great vid! I have to ask, what was the ride quality of the m3/m4 like (especially on those MI roads) compared to the ct4v blackwing? Also overall thoughts on one vs the other?
I always love and look forward to your videos. I cannot wait to see the IS500 review and maybe hear your thoughts how it stacks up against some othe cars in its class and maybe the M3 as well 😉😁
@@dlo7950 I am just hoping for driving enjoyment. My IS300 (first generation IS) MT was not as nimble or as fast as my S2000, but I enjoyed driving it much more. Something about that 2JZ-GE. It was smooth and the MT was nice too. I know IS500 will have AT but I hope that the V8's character will win me over. Like you said, we will just have to wait and see. And Lexus reliability over BMWs maybe enough for me.
@@alh06 Even still, it will have about 100 hp on both of those cars so it’s really going to be in a class of it’s own. It will be interesting to see how the others match up though.
I was always curious why do youtubers blur out there mph when it's "too" high. Was there an example of someone who's video's where used against him or is it like a...idk...old wives tale? Like if they wanted to they couldn't match the rpm and gear to the mph even if it was blurred out?

Being followed by one of this actually send chill down your spine because of the front grill, but everything else is absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks for letting me know that there are still manufacturers who understand that some people like to row their own gears!
Honestly, the grill looks okay after seeing that in person.
Saw the car yesterday and thought the same thing!
If you need a licence plate to somewhat hide a hedious design, you know there's a problem with it.
Not a BMW fan at all but I love my stick shifts. The way the engine sings when he hits the highway. I could listen to that all day! Save the manuals!

Nothing like a cold start😍
I love at 12:45 , he blurs his spedometer again but we can clearly see the waze app saying 101 😂
One thing is certain. This ain't no long distance cruiser. While short gear ratios are great for going at it like a hooligan, the engine sound is too present at 3000rpm, or thereabouts, for comfy, noise free cruising to a vacay destination.
Great review! Just wanted yourself a subscriber! Keep it up 👍🏽
As always great vid! I have to ask, what was the ride quality of the m3/m4 like (especially on those MI roads) compared to the ct4v blackwing? Also overall thoughts on one vs the other?
I always love and look forward to your videos.
I cannot wait to see the IS500 review and maybe hear your thoughts how it stacks up against some othe cars in its class and maybe the M3 as well 😉😁
I don’t think the is500 will be nimble enough to be considered an M3 competitor. It will have the power though so we’ll have to wait and see.
@@dlo7950 I am just hoping for driving enjoyment.
My IS300 (first generation IS) MT was not as nimble or as fast as my S2000, but I enjoyed driving it much more.
Something about that 2JZ-GE. It was smooth and the MT was nice too.
I know IS500 will have AT but I hope that the V8's character will win me over.
Like you said, we will just have to wait and see. And Lexus reliability over BMWs maybe enough for me.
@@dlo7950 The Is500 will face off more with the M340i and TLX Type S
@@alh06 Even still, it will have about 100 hp on both of those cars so it’s really going to be in a class of it’s own. It will be interesting to see how the others match up though.
@@dlo7950 Yeah it's definitely kind of an in-between enthusiasts' dream

I was always curious why do youtubers blur out there mph when it's "too" high. Was there an example of someone who's video's where used against him or is it like a...idk...old wives tale? Like if they wanted to they couldn't match the rpm and gear to the mph even if it was blurred out?
Maybe just better safe than sorry
There have been cases of less known UA-camrs getting caught in various countries. I mean most people don’t want to video themselves breaking the law.
Autobahn: Something is missing..🤔
Autobahn: Don’t blur it, let it glow 😜
Sadly, BMW, Porsche and Aston Martin are the only premium brands still providing the 3 pedal experience
