Please note - I have since found out the Carbon ceramic brakes aren't standard on the G80 M3 CS, doesn't change my option on it's value though!
Hope you enjoyed the video regardless!
Cheers 👊
I 100% agree with u. You get a lot of car for your money, incredible value. Loved the vid
Probably better without them for Road use - no need to get heat in them?
@@neilrobson3064 No the ceramics are a must have, even for road use. The stopping power improves by a lot.
Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!!
Is the frozen white a bone charge option?
Supercar territory
I love love love that you produce non clickbait content. It makes me want to watch your videos even more, over others! Please stay this way, don't give in. New to your channel, love the Drive Torque pod too! Well done, Joe!
Thank you buddy, really nice to read! 👊
@@JoeAchilles1 facts, wholesome reviews every week
Joe! I'm picking up mine in next 10 minutes in BMW of Nashville. Same color same spec. It's incredible. Thank you for your videos!
Congrats 💪🏽
How's it going 😂😂
Bullshit
Hope to see you drive around sometime! I’ll definitely be asking you to gun it if I see an M3 CS!
@@HamzaGuzel690 it's amazing
Just bought a f80 cs, couldnt be happier🔥
Nice!! Love the looks of the F80. Never drive one, it always wanted one as a family fun dd.
Another wonderful review …. I’m one of the lucky 75 in the UK. You did the same maths as I did that’s why I ordered one. Was worried that it wouldn’t be too different to my current G81 (great car) but fantastic to know that it’s different enough. Worried about those radiators and that grille too, is there anyone out there that does a mesh or something? I’ve gone with Brooklyn Grey, Bronze Gold wheels and red ceramics. Can’t wait till October now! Keep up the fantastic reviews.
*100
Lucky bastard
@@SH7SH7SH7 m5 CS for the win …
You can get a mesh direct from BMW
I agree that it is better value than the regular M3 for the reasons you cited. Sure, some will say you can tune the car, etc but with the M3 CS, you're getting the manufacturer's refinements. No fiddling, no worrying about warranty support, no need to declare modifications to your insurance company and, most of all, the exclusivity, all of which translate to better residual value.
What a package of a car. It's almost the perfect stepping stone from a JCW when you grow up or are expected to be more mature. Love it and the seats, wish my Jag performance seats were carbon just for the bling.
I instantly recognised the road! From Harry's garage🙌🏾
I'm so glad we're moving past the gunmetal/black wheel phase as we're onto this bronze/gold/whatever color. It looks amazing.
Agree on lighter wheels etc but I'm not feeling this car's looks
I don't like these short videos and prefer your longer videos even more.
This M3 CS is a beauty. So many thanks for your Testdrive.
This is possibly one of the best review I have seen from you joe. Thank you.
Another great review, thanks Joe. I much prefer full length videos like this rather than shorts. Keep it up.
Great review, thanks as always!
Great video. Your edits are the absolute best of any car journalist out there, and this review is outstanding. Can't for the life of me understand why you dot have more subs.
Love it Joe! Quality stuff as per! Don’t leave it too long for the next one!
I have been looking forward to this one !
Exceptional review, special car. Thanks Joe.
Thanks Joe for all the content you make. Not sure why I wasn't subscribed already as I've watched your content here and there throughout the years. I really enjoy how thorough you are with your reviews, you give such a great picture of what the car is like to drive I can imagine myself driving whilst I watch. Keep doing what you do 👍🏻
Great review once again Joe 👌
All my life I have not been keen on white coloured cars. That changes today. The M3 CS looks so good in that frozen white paint job. And what a car it is. Another CS gem from BMW and kudos to Joe to wasting no time giving us the first drive.
What a Video! Great watch love the M3 Touring too
Looks like the M5cs has new rival, its own younger brother.❤❤❤
Thanks Joe for your love of these lovely machines.
Brilliant video Joe! Would love to have got one of these 🙏🏼
Great job Joe.
Great video. Stay with this tipe of format. The audience you get this way is there to stay. Shorts are just temporally numbers. Keep it up
What a car!!! Love it.... Great video buddy
Great video. I can't wait to get my hands on it.
G80 m3 is honestly in a league of its own in the sub 100k price bracket. No car comes close to its overall package interior and performance. BMW ontop right now, Mercedes and Audi slacking
Great review, been looking forward to this one. Also glad to hear the M5CS is still 👑 👍
Great review, great car. The S58 is an amazing engine. Nice points regarding price as well!
Really sorry to hear about the challenges with channel growth Joe, but please keep doing what you are doing! I come to YT for long form high quality content like yours which is from the very top draw of car YT as far as I’m concerned. Quality will I’m sure win long term so please persevere whilst the algo is messing about with shorts which I am sure won’t last in its current form.
Love this!
Man..I was getting used to the new M3 design untill i saw its predecessor and remembered how epic it looked.
Doesn't look right does it? Might look better in real life perhaps, but the fussy wheels look too small, the red highlights are horrific and the carbon bits and stripes are just too much for me
Keep making this great kind of content, Joe! I hate reels/shorts/whatever too...
Looking forward to more excellent and very honest reviews!
Why bother with the CSL? Great bit of kit, my only mini moan is the sound. So many M cars just don’t sound that great these days, a bit drowny and bass heavy, gone is that really exotic crisp straight 6 pure sound.
I think my 2017 M240i genuinely sounds better.
Great video though, keep em coming. And lots of UA-cam guys are also saying the same about the viewing figure drop.
Shorts are ok but I prefer these videos and Harry’s garage with proper content 👍
i totally agree on the shorts piece,,,
Great video Joe. As usual may I say. Late in the day but managed to secure an order for one of these yesterday. October 23 build. Paid extra for the white paint & carbon ceramics. Can’t wait. Simon
Err, no. Turns out I’m wrong… BMW dealer said there’s a few listed but after I paid the deposit was told none are available. So no. Still a great video though.
The new M3 CS is my new favorite Bmw M car. What an incredible machine😈 Great video Joe👍🏻
Cheers!
Me too
Those rims are literally perfect
I wish BMW M cars excited me like they used to. I walked straight past a new M2 and an M3 Touring in a showroom yesterday to get to a different brand. Never thought I’d see that day. Automatics, clumsy styling, giant touchscreens, a thousand driving modes and too much weight just aren’t my bag is a sports car. There remains a fantastic back catalogue and that’s where my interest in BMW lies these days.
What was the other brand, could only be Porsche?
Couldn’t agree more Colin. I think I’m just getting old and grumpy, starting to give the whole ‘back in my day’ 🤣🤣. I just can’t take to the new front end, particularly after the beautiful lines of the F80, F90 etc. I still enjoy the old analog dash/guages, and I honestly think that is why I love the previous models, it was the perfect balance/transition between old and new.
@@JoeAchilles1 Yes. It was.
Thumbs up about honest opinion regarding yt shorts. Dream car this M3 CS, brilliant!
Great review Joe - I think I'd have the M5CS myself as well, money being no object. I saw one here in the Pacific NW when I was crossing the border from Oregon to Washington and was able to snap a photo
Best M3 CS review ❤
Keep at it Joe, amazing content as always. I’ve been a longterm subscriber and have watched pretty much all your videos! Take it easy mate and just keep doing what you’re doing
Feel the same about the UA-cam shorts. Good review I got my cs last month and I feel like it’s the best deal m3 since it will most likely hold value better as well.
It’s more connected to the road and it does feel faster
Good vid mate!
Cup holders removed is an interesting one, since CS is still supposed to be a road car 1st before track
Gorgeous car
Awesome car ❤ love ❤️ it amd you Joe great review
I can’t wait for my one to arrive!!!
I’ve order with track tyres though as keeping just as a track car
Another awesome video Joe. In the nicest possible way of saying this Joe, i thought you looked very tired, maybe time for a small break ?. I love my G82 M4 X Drive, but very much miss my M5 Competition, how i rue the day, i cancelled my M5 CS order, you live and learn, take care matey 🙂🙂
Why not buy another m5?
@@yanzi1957 Going to await the new M5.
I got on a few weeks ago. Excellent Jack of all trades car
I would be interested to see what the torque curves look like in comparison btwn the m3 comp xdrive and the m3cs
I love BMW and it has always been ma wish to join u in your test drive anytime I watch your UA-cam videos.
Thank god someone understands me, 15 clips of nothing should be left to TikTok... great review as always mate, once again the 4 door special model is my favourite out of the group
Thank you Joe! How does the suspension and steering in this CS compare with a G80 comp on carbon ceramics? I know they can improve on some of the characteristics you've discussed. Hoping to differentiate effects of CS-specific tuning vs brake type
12:22 omg that is one of the most brutal launches I have seen from an M3. Wow. This is a damn 3 series and you’re getting super car levels of acceleration. 👏👏👏 Also BMW just knows how to tune that ZF 8-speed and turn it into basically a torque-converted dual clutch transmission. The shifts are so quick, the ratios are so closely spaced together for the engine to be in the powerband, and this thing just takes off. Wow BMW. That's nuts.
I can't believe you've not got more subs than you have.
Your review style is impeccable.
Great car.
Wow insane acceleration! What a Supercar, that right I said it, supercar!
good job
Amazing car
Great job Joe. Great car and as always love your balanced and open reviews. Smashed it again 👊🏼😎
Fantastic video Joe. What’s your opinion on the BMW habit (and Porsche’s) of different front and rear wheel sizes (diameter rather than width)? It always looks slightly odd to me.
What a Machine 😮
I love BMW M3 ❤
Hi Joe, new sub
I keep waiting to see you and Harry on that same bit of road at the same time.
The 0-60 on pilot sport 4S tyres 😮
Great review Joe! These cars are so quick. Those Pilot Sport 4S tyres just give incredible traction. No wheel spin just perfect launch. Given the number of super high-performance cars with them and their ability to grip dry or wet, Michellin transform so many cars! Makes you wonder why any manufacturer would fit anything different if you have, 19", 20" or 21" wheels.
because other tyres like cup2s feel better
There’s a super interesting story behind the PS4s that come on the G80. Tyre Reviews does an awesome video of it on UA-cam. BMW worked with Michelin to make a custom set of PS4s tires just for the G8X.
I'm surprised M, don't have engineers press releases when BMW launches these cars to explain the different value propositions, like the way Porsche does.
Epic .. not watched it all but I just know 😂😊
Faster 0-30mph than an M5 CS, I wonder if the 0-60mph is correct though because that looked faster than an M5 CS
It looked faster? Lol what. He timed both cars and got 2.75 in the M5 CS. I’m pretty sure he’s using VBox with 1ft rollout - so this will be .2s or so slower if you use a Dragy as a general note but either way he timed faster with the M5.
It actually looks fast in the video !.
I really want to see the new generation Alpina B4 review.
I thought we only had M3 comp and CSL. As a car nut, i never knew the cs was in existence until now!
You and Harry Metcalfe live close to each other right? Great video as always 👍🏻✌🏻
For daily usage I'd take this over the M5CS and it also takes more passengers than the M5CS and I believe it's lighter almost in all manners possible even on fuel.
Well I can’t argued against M5 CS as a daily but I’ve seen a few other reviews of the new g80 cs compared to the m5 cs and they found the official weights listed by bmw aren’t exactly accurate. They found w fuel the m5 cs is 1905kg while the m3 cs is much lighter at around 1780 kg. M3 def is def set up more for track loved to see Joe review it there too
Hi Joe need some advice what’s the best exhaust to go for on the latest m3 also by changing the stock exhaust will this void any warranty appreciate any advice
Wow what an amazing car drain pipe Joe it's lovely
Cool stretch of road
Bargain is perhaps too strong, decent value relatively speaking is maybe closer to the mark. Thanks for the content Joe, good watch as always
I still think the weight and cost increase of the G80/ G82 cars makes the the F82 M3/M4CS and M2CS series cars look way better value for their money (M4CS is 460bhp/600nm of torque and weighs in at 1580kgs). I think BMW have missed a trick with the new CS and CSL’s to give them legendary status like the E46 CSL.
The 4 wheel drive systems on the G80/82 cars has without doubt improved the performance through grip rather than power and weight. Four wheel drive is always compromised in performance cars and there is always a noticeable lack of feel on the front end (like the Audi R8)
I just think the G80 ‘specials’ could have been so much better and can’t help feeling BMW needed to bring those cars in around 1700kgs to make them standout collectible cars.
I would suggest buyers save their money and buy an F82 M3/ M4CS or M2 CS which are stonking performers and sound better. The G80 cars aren’t a big enough improvement overall to justify their premium imo - (driven an M4 CSL and I own an M4CS)
I also don’t like the dash in the new one:-)
The new G80/G82 drive way better than the F Generation and you get the daily usability with xdrive. The quality in the interior has also massively improved…not sure how i feel about the big screen tho
I agree on the grill….. Far too much exposure to those rads😮
Well you’ve finally done. This AMG fanboy is officially an M car fanboy. The M3 comp is on my shortlist for my next car
Given the last true Alpinas are now in production I would love to see a B5 M5 comparison
Does anyone know where that “special S-bend “ is that joe and harry use?
I cant believe BMW still removes the armrest and cupholders from CS models. This is a 3900lb AWD sedan, not a crazy track special. Not even a GT3 RS removes those.
Nice
The second market prices of the were absurd tho . Now they'll be up 20% after Joe's review
You forgot the carbon fiber boot is standard. Also, the lack of steering feel can be improved upon via aftermarket monoballs.
If only it sounded better but yes a great car!
What stretch of road do you take all
These cars to? Look like a really good set of straights and corners?
Only problem with your calculation is that carbon ceramics don’t come standard with the CS as they do with the CSL
Looks amazing, I wonder though is there not room for a stripped out light weight, no back seats, soundproofing removed, manual RWD cheaper M3
I think the shorts aren’t a replacement, they’re an addition. We get the real reviews to enjoy and learn and small shorts to enjoy when we want a few 10-30 second videos to spam at once
could you possibly do a drag and roll race with a m5cs vs the m3cs. everyone wants to see that
Car went back weeks ago. M5 CS would destroy the M3 CS in a rolling race.
@@JoeAchilles1 even if the m3cs is in rwd?
The m5cs will be more sought after years from now
No one makes better super saloons than the ///M division!
Yes Joe.. what an //M car.. drive it like you stole it too 😂😂👏👏
I also recently purchased the M3 CS, but to be honest, for daily driving, I feel like the i4 M50 or even the iX50 even though completely different cars might possibly be better options. Funny, isn't it? 😅
The no cupholders or center console armrest should’ve told you what you needed. If you wanted a daily you should’ve got the M3 Competition Xdrive
@@samiwasti8400
I used to have an M4 Competition Package xDrive. It wasn't bad for daily driving, but it left me somewhat undecided. It wasn't a car that stood out. It didn't have the same mechanical feel as a Porsche, and the mid-range torque was also weak. I didn't want to engage in the idiotic practice of ECU reflashes, spacers, and modifications like some of you do. That's why I ended up getting the M3 CS.
Would I go back to a regular M3 after experiencing the CS? If I had the money, the Cayenne Turbo GT seemed tempting. Nevertheless, buying the M3 CS gave me peace of mind compared to the more common M3 models. Around 30 years ago, it wasn't just any car that anyone could drive.
