Hey guys! Today Marcus is behind the wheel of an 850+HP BMW M Coupé running on E85, one of the most polarizing vehicles ever made. Is it ugly? Is it beautiful? It's a little bit of both, honestly. With a custom Vortech supercharger setup under the hood feeding the 3.2L S54 engine from the BMW ///M division, this car gives the turbocharged E46 M3 we filmed a run for its money. Enjoy!
Thanks again Ghery, Vik, and the rest of the guys over at Garage 54 for making this happen! Check out their work below!

'02 S54 M Coupe owner here. Gary's an awesome dude. This car is known as one of the "greatest m coupes ever built" among the community. so glad you did a review of it.
I've also got an 02 M coupe 🤙
'00 MCoupe owner here. On a mod scale of one to Ghary(11), mine is around a 6.5. Just getting caught up on superspeedersRob Sorted and Ghery's MCoupe would do very well in this and I would have liked to see Ghery show up in his fishing hat all nonchalant about a car that just absolutely dominates.
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen one of these in white. It looks killer!!!
only made about 100 for the NA market in white - pretty rare
Brad Hext I figured the numbers were something like that!
I’ve never seen a white one either and I’m in SoCal!
Not a fan of the white or the red stripe either... otherwise... ;P
Mine is Alpine 3 white. Its beautiful.
The short throw of the shifter at 4:18 is crazy. The shifter barely moved! Beautiful car and amazing video as usual.
Derek! Didn't know you were such a car guy, hell yeah!
10:54 - 11:16 - 100% agree. Same with people who buy expensive sports/super cars and drive them like once a month it's like why? I get it if you're investing into it to sell later but if you're planning on keeping the car just drive it. Life is too short to have something just sit in the garage when you should be enjoying it.
i don't understand what is to dislike about a video like this? Great content man, love the new evolutions of the channel.
Love my 01 M-coupe and have had my coupe for 15 years. Coupes are so much fun and that car is a beast 500+ hp. I can't imagine Great Job Garage 54! Thanks for sharing.
Follow @roadsuntraveled, @exclusivecarsociety, and @garage54inc on Instagram! Also, S50B32 engine code jet tags are on our store: bit.ly/2UQo6hn Stay tuned for a 900HP R32 GTR next week ;)
Great content as always guys!
This intro was just amazing the way you executed it. Keep innovating.
Cheers.
cant believe how cool bmw used to be
Awesome video , I've always loved those cars just because they were so rare. Used to see a couple years ok driving to work downtown Vancouver but it's been a good 7 or 8 years since I seen one in person. Hearing people call them clown shoes makes me like them even more.
So glad to see this car getting love. An S54 Estoril Blue M Coupe is one of my dream cars after photographing one, and driving the Roadster model as well
Eyyyy same dream car! Either the blue or that lovely green.
Amazing build. I love my M Coupe with its S52. Great driving ride. Thanks for the video.
Coolest BMW ever made.
I also like the Z1 and Z8
But clown shoes!
@@CarsofGlasgow z8 was sleep
@@SicSemperBeats Yeah :)
@@CarsofGlasgow Z8 is incredible. Real present in person.
*These cars are definitely a legend...so badass this guy built one to over 800hp!*
I enjoyed this, thanks for making this Marcus. Good work!
0.30 AM here, sleepy as hell... But when I see the notification, baamm, instantly awake and click immediately...
Keep up the good work, Marcus.. Your videos are amazing..
By the way, any chance we will see another K-Car or Muscle cars review in the future?
I'd love to see you review a Suzuki Cappuccino or Dodge Charger or something.. Thanks..
Beautiful car! And that dog is pretty cool too LOL good point BMW is the ultimate driving machine and was never intended to be the ultimate parked in the garage machine!
Incredible, love the passion, and, of course, the dog is awesome!
Garage 54 the love for cars is real bro, cars are life
not sure why people don't like the z3 m coupe. it's a long nose hot hatch, how could you not like it? its unique asf(rwd long nose hatch)
I feel the same way, plus the hatch makes it easier to carry tires to the track.
Valencio Danes Lol when did i ask for your opinion?
Looks like baby ferrari ff
I'd love to own one of these Z3 M coupes and and drift them around my grandma's house
130i at a fifth of the price , as much as I like the z3m coupe the prices have gone crazy in the last few years ,,, a sorted 130i will have to do ,. for now.
Great video guys, and great timing - lots of press on the m coupe this week with the big BAT sale.
This was my dream bmw since I was a little kid.
Get one. They are all that a d more! I was lucky enough to buy mine new in 2001. I still love my M Coupe!
@@FastEddie368 It's rare in my country :(
Literally my dream car. Vortech Supercharger and all. Just perfect.
Still one of my favorite BMW, the BMW z3 M Coupé, congrats man. The time when BMW were building good cars. 1990's cars is killer, the guy should throw in a Lancia Delta HF turbo integralle in the garage too.
Wow dude... That's been my dream car for maaaany years now. I never imagined it was gonna turn into a sought after icon.
Probably the best fitment I've seen on one of these cars. So cleeeaaaannnn
Bought our M-Coupe, (Estoril) 25 years ago, will have it forever.
Honestly quite like the look. Very unique and it grows on you. Then again this is coming from a hot hatch lover
Love your video workk ! And wat a heck of a car 😱😱
I'm no BMW fanboy, but this is one of your best uploads yet!
Great vid. When are we getting the review on the golden yellow E46M3 behind there?
Garage 54s the shop I go to for all my needs lol. They build amazing bimmers
Awesome build. I own a 2001 Z3M Coupe with the S54, i had an E46 M3 as well. Think of the Z3M Coupe as a lightweight M3. There were 25 E46 M3’s sold for every one Z3M Coupe. Its that rare. Only 678 cars here in the U.S. have the S54 engine. it’s a blast to drive and it’s doubled in value in the four years I’ve owned it. Buy one now before prices skyrocket. A low mileage stock example just sold for $92k on Bring A Trailer , but I agree drive it. I have 53k miles on mine.
I bought my new in 2001. A few tweeks really bring it to the next level. I.E.= Lower rear end ratio, Polyurethane rear subframe bushings, coil overs & uncork the exhaust
I'm running the same indy firehawk 500's on my Z3! Really cool video.
I think it’s cool that you review all kinds of cars, but have you ever thought about making like a 5 episode series, talking about what you think the best cars are, in your opinion, when it comes to tuning/modifications? Since all the cars you review have been tuned/modified. Maybe one episode you take 2 or 3 cars you love just driving, another episode you take your favorite 2 or 3 cars are for handling and braking, another episode 2 or 3 cars you think re the best bang for buck for tuning, etc...
It would be a fun series I think. You could do so much with it.
Those rolling shot are on point
Owned and bought a super low mileage Z3 M roadster for £6k when I was 21 sold it 6 years later for 20k and about 40k miles more on the clock definitely a huge appreciating classic, loved it in every way you'd never see another on the road and completely unique, would of kept it if I could, miss it. Did always prefer the coupe looks though
great job, you enjoyed it, got a deal, and made a profit. You're a smart man
M coupe or M Roadster?
Great Video. Incredible car. Gotta drive them like they were meant to be driven! I just regretfully sold my 98 M Roadster and picked up a Cobb N54 335i sedan....had to make room for the kiddo’s. Should’ve bought a e90 M3 with as much money as I’ve dumped into this thing!
Thank you so much for your video today 🌞. It saved my day
Glad to hear that! :D This car did the same for me when I drove it ;)
@@RoadsUntraveled you speak italian ? ? ?
The owner really put love into it what a build !
The best build I have ever seen!
Congratulations!
I wonder what this would sell for?
There’s just something cool about 90s and early 2000s bmws
Such a driver's car....that sound is euphoric!
i love the mission statement of Garage 54! i have an E63 M6 that i'm scared to anyone change my oil because i do know these shops near me in Orlando mostly have No love for the customers vehicles...its all about $$$ for them.
Try to get a personal connection with a garagemanager! I had the same problems with my shop. Always got my car back with 20 extra miles on it.
Super nice video an super nice car!! Thanks!!
I’ve always liked the look personally but this one is over the top! Mind saying what suction cup camera mount combo your using for the windshield camera?
A great custom build, need people like that in the UK.
Sweet video man. I hope you review more Bimmers!
einer der geilstens z3 ever! der motor ein traum!!! great job dude
One of my favorite things is talking cars and mentioning I have a Coupe and most people nod knowingly. But most of those same people go "Wtf is that?" when they see mine in real life.
Saw one the other day. They are so badass looking
My dad and me always love that hatch man. But I didn't know it was a more dedicated drivers car than the e46 💖
Yes Sir, a more intimate and engaging driving experience for sure.
Wonderful opening man ! 🤙
That Dog really felt the M Spirit!!
3:51 the dog was amazed by this speech
Dude that downshift at 16:59 is amazing woow!! Nice stuff'
I prefer this z3 over the z4m coupe. Has 6 speed swapped in suspension is built better and still has s54. More unique. The power is way more than enough for the car. Great video by the way!!!Seen the car and road in a few times. Nothing short of amazing arguably the best all around built car I've been in.
Nice!...me e85 factory lowered, e70 diesel, e24 shark, I am thinking about your approach on my shark with the m30 b32. nice shoe man, wayyyyy nice shoe!!!!
Passed by one of these in black years ago in my AP2-very nice; I liked it better than the convertible for sure; but still found it a bit odd. This video has made me think twice for sure. Though, if I can be picky lol.. I'd much prefer the rear to slope more aggressively as it sweeps to the rear with a Ford Shelby Daytona-esk back-end. (Not a american car enthusiast, and still like the rear lights, but a less "clown-shoe" presence would be cool)
I've always loved these!
Damn that thing is cool!
3:55 I think all viewers are fascinated and looking at the screen like the dog looking up lmao
In the UK, it's affectionately known as the "BMW Bread van". Who wouldn't want their bread delivered in style?
Can anyone tell me which smartphone holder on the air vents grille it is, looks like it's really a good one? Many thanks for your help!
I like the owner of the Shoe very much.so humble and passionate about cars.
Is it missing on throttle tip in or is that some kind of traction control?
Great review on the Z3. Pleaseeeee do a review on a rotary or turbo Miata.😥
When those first came out I thought they were HIDEOUS! I suppose just like my taste buds matured when grew up, so did my taste in automobiles. The M Coupé, aka "shooting brake", is a phenomenal car! Unique styling, great handling, great brakes, lots of power, great gearbox, LSD differential, comfortable yet sporty interior, etc, etc. I would love to have one of these but the prices have gone up and will just keep going up from now on.
Love the z3m coupe, thats why I bought one, but they do look awsome in white, mine is stock s50 and thats quick, 850hp would be insane, love the attitude of the owner, if he was local he would have my business. Gary, keep it, they dont make em like this anymore. :)
@roads untraveled: minute 6:28: Can you please tell me what camera suction cup attachment you use?
Love the video, love the car, love the dog
Great video!
Good job Ghery.
I can imagine how it pulls. Nice build
Amazing modifications. I'm trying to sell my 2001 Z3 3.0 roadster to get a 2002 z3 M but no one is selling or trading
A set of wheels I'm interested are 18x11 et 16front and -6rear anyone know if they have a chance fitting?
What's the story with the steering wheel? Looks like a good upgrade. Direct fit?
what kind of steering wheel is that? Can that be swapped into all 1999-2002 M Coupes?
What company did the engine work? I want my 02 M3 done?
bring a trailer is where people actually take "i know what i got" seriously
And where you'll never find a good deal on a car because of that. ;)
"12mph and it's still connected to the road!" ;) XD
What engine management and rear diff ratio?
Love it in very way. On my bucket list.
Ever since i sold my z3 my heart aches for another one. This time instead of building an m54 im starting with an S54 and swapping in the 6 speed m3 transmission into. Perfect daily.
I put 3.73:1 gears in the back of my S-54 M Coupe and really don't see any need for the 6-speed transmission.
Hands down one of my favorites too
You happen know the wheel spec, please 18X9.5+?
18X10.5+?
Please and thank you
You must be running CTR spec for the front
I hate spacers I want flush look no rubbing or roll please and thank you so much
What road was that and we’re is it located
Im building a 2015 X1, its a 4 door version, and imo looks better and much better engineered, but needs widening.
When you called the closet the first time it was interesting after a certain point it becomes really redundant besides that most enthusiasts really don't call it a clown shoe best response from other BMW car owners m3 guys. still cool though
that steering wheel is THICC!
“No it’s not a Z3” uhhh yes it is ? Lol
Lol 😂
Technically it’s an M Coupe :P
Will Bo that’s what I said
Will Bo nm sorry thought you were replying to me
Will Bo you know what else is funny? How many people think that it shares parts with the e46 m3 (aside from the engine). Everyone thinks it’s got e46 based suspension etc. because of the time period it’s from and the engine from the e46
Interesting setup.
What gearbox they using again?
Man, I love your work, really. I think it would be better if you could show the car specifications on the screen in the introduction scene. You know what i mean.
Sorry for my grammar
I'm in SoCal. Where is this? Always looking for good roads to drive.
How do you pass smog with this?
I'm getting serious Tyler Hoover vibes off this dude... Like a young Hoovie
Lets see it at the track
Is there a parts list anywhere ?
-diff
-trans
Etc.
I LOVE the clown shoe. I really wish they were a bit more affordable...but one day I might have one
