@@musselicious I like the E90 better than the E92 also. The e90 rear end has those nice wide fender flares and you’re right about the extra doors for family. Might have to switch mine someday 😊
@@Sals_Garage yes I agree and if I would live in warm place and no need of 4-doors then E93 feels like the best option. So if possible have both in the future 😁
Proud owner of an E93 M3 DCT! The overall driver experience is unmatched with other cars! Best content creator to rep the E93. Keep up the amazing work!
Love this video and repping the E93 M3. I am a proud 2009 DCT E93 M3 owner also...love the driving experience and the smiles every time I drive it...the sound is awesome, especially with the roof down plus it's no slouch performance wise on the street 👍🏼
I do agree with you about the fact that you don’t need to drive this car 10/10’s just to have fun. I have a manual e90 M3, so a different experience all together, but I completely agree with you. That is the biggest misconception is that these cars are only fun when you’re at 8400rpm (or 8600 tuned). That is just not true. I’ll be honest I spend most of my time between 3-5k and, even there, it’s plenty fun. Don’t get me wrong I’ll red line her every now and then when I get a nice stretch of tarmac.
Thanks for the comment! Yes the V8 engine really is a fun motor for sure. I bet the manual is twice the fun, I wish I had gotten that instead 😂 Luckily the DCT is paired really well with the S65 engine.
2 weeks ago got my 2008 bmw white e93 335i with N54 43k original miles, 2 owners, brand new condition full stock… I love the car, convertible is amazing thing! I live in California and love drive highway 1. The only disappointment it’s automatic transmission… the n54 is very friendly for tuning, ,y friend has e92 with crazy intake nose, turbo whistle and pops… and it’s not too loud. Crazy 450hp with intercooler and tune up. I got my car for 10k$ in Seattle WA
The question today is which to buy? An E92 or E93 M3? I think you already answered that question even before you asked it at 0:03 with that smile on your face!👌Lol. Great long term review, great points and comparison with an E92, and reasons why the E93 might be the better choice. You bring up some excellent things to think about and consider, if someone is debating between the two. Your car definitely makes an excellent argument on why the E93 would be the more fun car to have for sure! However, you have done A LOT of work to yours and have modded it very tastefully, which makes an even more of a fun toy. Just the way it looks and the stance it has at 3:38 is perfect! The latest exhaust mod you have done is just on another level. Love that exotic sound, and it would definitely turn my head if I heard it coming down the road. That exhaust mod by itself is amazing! One thing that I like is that you get your hands dirty and do these mods yourself. You also show us how to do things step by step and describe each step in detail. Also you show us how to do mods on a budget, and where to find the best deals on parts and tools. That is always appreciated! I've already figured out from your videos that you are an especially helpful person. I have not run into any other RU-vidr that offers to help their viewers with repairs, mods, and to help work on their cars. That is REALLY nice of you! Now, I also see that you help people in your career as well. Very cool! You have a special knack and talent with cars and it's nice of you to share it with others. Keep up the great work and great videos! 👍
I appreciate your thoughtful and wholesome comment Alek! Reading your comments keep me motivated to continue making YT videos. That and helping people out 😆 Hope to see you at a car meet soon, it’s been a while. Would love to see the Diablo as well 🙌🏼
Hi Sal Being a E93 M3 owner I agree with all that you say The E93 has everything you need It’s a beautiful car I enjoy your videos cause I enjoy my M3 just the way you like your M3
Great review.. I’m a cabrio guy myself and I have the E93 in my top 5 fav BMW’s..I always say that verts give you 2-3 different looks… hardtop, soft top and no top…
Right on 👍, sounds awesome. I'm Right here in San Jose. Hit me up if u ever go cruising around ill try to meet up. I got an 08 e93 m3 and I think u would really like what I did with my exhaust 🙌 and ur right with the right exhaust they do sound like a ferrari.
Your car looks great😎, and I agree about the wing you've added, makes it look better still! I agree that being able put the top down means you enjoy the sounds so much better (my x-brother in law's M6 S85 demonstrated that to me nicely!), but at the end of the day I don't want the extra problems that any convertible can give! Please tell me though that your air intakes aren't filtered only by thin cloth!? That is not going to filter the air properly, and that's really bad for the engine! (it does sound amazing though!). Not too loud!? It sounded deafening with the valves open! 🤣 Ah mate, please don't let random strangers drive your car! Before you know it, someone will steal it from ya! 🙁 Btw, is E85 even ok to use with these? (as in, does BMW say it's ok?).
Thanks for the comment! I don’t have the open intakes anymore, I have a full carbon fiber and glass intake setup. Check it out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8B45DUwMNlY.html
Nice BM3 E93 👍! Sounds amazing. I have the same car and has done the OEM Muffler Mod + Secondary Cats delete. It sounds good but not as loud as I expected. I am also thinking about removing the Res, what do you think? Thanks
Hi Sal, greetings from Perth Western Australia. Well after hearing the sound of your car, Iam looking to re purchase again OMG , I have had a 6 speed ess 625 supercharged e92 M3, a modified e90 M3 and a modified e92 M3. Seams I can’t get away from them. Really enjoyed a FBO ISF I had and have been tempted to re buy , but now that I live in the mountains in the country, I can’t think of anything better than a convertible. Yes the e93 is a bargain. Could you kind tell me about your wheel and tyre , spacers , size , suspension etc. many thanks. Love your work and generosity.
Thank you for the comment! Wheel specs: ESR RF2: 19x10.5 +22 with 295/30/19 tires 19x9.5 +22 with 265/35/19 tires Suspension: BC Racing coilovers with Swift spring upgrade.
I am very close to get m3 but I am also concern what will happened with petrol cars in near future? I don't want to spend a lot of money and in a moment be forced by the system to own an electric car.
I had the e46 m3 it was amazing, Long story short I was evading from the police and they spiked stripped me and I totalled it. After jail I came out and bought a nissan gtr 35 the 09, that car is the fastest car I ever drove, but it has no soul imo and the speed thrill goes away, And I miss the less powerful cars, I feel like 400 hp is the sweet spot for daily driving, we dont need that much power on these cali roads. at least compared to the e46 m3, the S2000 I had, or motorcycles ect. So Im think of selling my GTR getting a convertible e93 m3 and pocket the cash for upgrades.
Another note, I really like these m3 models because there is nothing like a naturally aspirated engine, there's something about the precision of the throttle around corners that you just can't get with forced induction engine cars. including my GTR. BMW kinda had thier hands tied due to emissions and having more performance by using turbos. thanks for the video btw @@Sals_Garage
I would like to chat with yiu about my sons E93. We are from monterey Ca amd Remy from Zen Rage told me you are a good resorce for an advisory for a exhaust or any modificarions.
For everyone that need a 0-60 car; you're just insecure. Take a deep breathe and re-evaluate your future - if you're living for the now, the future is very bleak.
😂 mind elaborating? Some of us only get to enjoy our cars on straight roads. A 1-2-3 pull from a dig is about the most fun im gonna be able to have on a daily basis unless im on a road trip or at a track day
