If you used to your family sedan having the front wheels where they are and feeling the turn ir could be familiar. Something feels missing inside, but lot's of screens and something you could do to the speedometer with c++ and QT oh my meaningful lowest of the low.
I bought a 2016 BRZ Limited about a year and a half ago. Couldn't pass it up as it only had 13.8k miles and one owner. I definitely like the body and wing style better on the first-gen. I can't stand duck bills. Mine is still stock, with the exception of a sound generator delete - I removed the tubing entirely and plugged the holes. It's my first sports car so it's out-performing everything I've ever driven before, and it's certainly more fun. No problems yet - though I wouldn't expect any at so low a mileage. I drive it year-round in Minnesota and it's a great drive even in winter. The Yokohama tires that came on the car have been flawless. The dealer had recently replaced them, so they were new. They also did a bunch of other maintenance just before I bought it, including replacing the diff fluid. The car was originally bought from this dealership, and all maintenance had been done there as well, according to CarFax. Overall, I highly recommend the BRZ even if you never modify it or track it. It's an awesome daily driver.
If Subaru/Toyota is going to pipe-in engine noise, why stop at a 4-cylinder boxer? Why not have the choice of an Italian V-12 or a vintage Ford flathead? Good video. Thanks.
@@losouknoso22 I feel it's a car that is typically owned by a younger generation, who is inherently negligent imo. The car itself is phenomenal, but seems to require an excess amount of attention. The boxer engine seems to chug oil, like nobody's business. I seriously have no idea where it goes, and I drive the vehicle like a elderly woman. That's one reason. However, I'm not sure all of the rumors apply to daily drivers l, other than the one I just mentioned. In short - it's better to know exactly where the car has been or buy from someone you absolutely trust.
@@RAY_FILET got u n yea the oil is one reason why I’m hesitant to buy I heard that a lot n the fact that my wife bouta have our 3rd kid she won’t be too happy with a 2 door lol
@@RAY_FILEThonestly, these cars are pretty darn reliable - old boxer engines especially the EJ’s do consume a lot of oil but for the FA platform engines, they’re pretty great. the FA20DIT and FA24DIT in the WRX’s are pretty good and reliable and the FA24 in this BRZ are super reliable. - only problem with this generation is the oil pan RTV gasket issue.
Coming from a tremec 6060 both on my Srt Challenger and Ct4 blackwing the manual transmission bmw makes is horrible..rubbery, boring and now im having to spend even more money to change out the shifter + CVD just to try and make feel closer to what a real manual should feel like,sad af Bmw..
Honestly i'll never understand why people daily these cars. You definitely and certainly can. i've always had my M's as weekend cars. Truck for daily, M3 for fast practical fun on the weekends.
Hey I might be a little late to give my opinion on a tune for your m3 but I currently have a manual M2c with a stage 1 Carbahn tune and it is fantastic!! Big difference and fills those gaps of lag while giving it safe power and it’s very noticeable! I’m waiting for a manual g80 m3 and I’ll definitely be getting another Carbahn tune. Possibly even stage 2. Let me know what you end up getting.
You’ll get used to the display and the more you familiarize yourself with it. It’s jaw droppingly beautiful at night. It was overwhelming at first. Did a BMW genius help you with the tech when you bought it? -‘24 G83 owner🤙🏾
Your car looks fantastic! What brand / % tint did you go with? Anything on the windshield too tint wise? Great content, I’m waiting on my Isle of Man g80 order to arrive.
"Many videos to come" Two months later: "I sold it" Curious what you think of the 4runner over this? I'm in a 2021 tacoma pro i purchased new, i wish i could buy the m3 and keep the taco but no bueno. At a crossroads of decisions and know the smart decision would be to do nothing and keep driving a slow oil change only truck.
Your channel is all over the place. What a complete mess. Ownership reviews of a BRZ, G80, Bronco, and a 4Runner that you apparently don't know if it's a 2022 or a 2023 model year.....and mentions of a Cayman GT4 (but strangely, no video), and now a Tundra. Are you a car flipper? Used car salesman? You're never going to build a substantial following on RU-vid with the kind of content you're putting out. And thats a shame because you're obviously an enthusiast with some good insights.
Loved the 911, but it was a little too “precious” for daily use and lots of miles (to me at least). I had an M3 in 2003 that I put 50k miles on and thought it was the best all-around car I’ve owned, so got another one. It really does it all and I’m not worried about leaving it in a parking lot.
Just got my G80 a few weeks ago. Agree with everything you said. Do you find the 1-2 shift a bit jarring? Still not super smooth with this. Was smoother in my s2000.
