Be patient when searching guys, I searched for about 1.5 years for the right deal and it was worth it. Recently picked up a 2017 F80 comp that was babied and had full ppf with 36k miles. Prices are also dropping, not a bad time to buy!
bruh who’s realistically asking this question lol? people are still buying old e46 m3s to this day. meaning in 10+ years people will still be looking for f80s
E46 is a completely different buyer than a potential modern M owner. E46's and other specialty cars of that ERA require, money, knowledge and the want/obsession with having things perfect. They are not turn key cars (The majority of whats left) and really are for true driver car enthusiasts.
@@detailersworkshop i don’t understand why you’re telling me this. it doesn’t change anything i said. i’m aware they’re not the same car they’re obviously different generations.
@@Metoy3rthat’s the problem w most ppl that are into new BMWs, they don’t even care ab it just want whatever is a foreign and fast, they don’t even know what an e46 is 😂 love my f30 as a daily tho, and e30 as the weekend car
Valuable insight! With prices going down this is a great time to get into an F8X. Been following since the 340. Congrats on your 1 year of ownership and getting into your dream car. Keep going 💯
When I was taught to drive a manual (long time ago) I was told to always put the gear into 2nd before throwing it into 1st. Doing so helps open the synchros making it easier to put into 1st. Always worked for me.
I got my 2018 F80 M3 Competition 6MT with 77k miles for 52k out the door (with taxes) last Summer! Now had it for a year and adding FBO with CrankHub going MHD Stage 2+ 😅.
@@kevinsosa6502 mine was great..didn't not have one issue for 9+ months! Mine is a manual and a 2018 so I was a little worried about the CrankHub so I just got it done and went full Bolt On. No issues at all man. If you get the CrankHub done, they have to change all the gaskets such as oil pan and valve cover gaskets.
One more note is mine 2018 has every option on an M Comp manual as well. LED headlights all Camaras etc. I was excited with the spec I have. But now it has the CrankHub and Full Bolt on with MHD stage 2+
I'm calling it now, been right about every damn one before they were a classic. The F8X will go down as one of the best modern M's and a future classic, especially the CS. I'm not really an M guy but do plan to own a late E46M. The weight and looks of the G8X absolutely killed it and solidified the F8X as one of the best.
@@Reaper_f30 do it mate.. you wont regret it...I coums have bought the new m240...no status upgrade driving it or th4 M340 for that matter. The F82 is scary fast and as a daily it's very capable. You can dominate traffic. Also ppl love seeing them on the road.
i had an g30 540i 400hp, i bought the 540i for the newer interior but regret it.... i drove once an M f chasis and sold immediately my 540i bcs the M's are so much nicer and u cant even compare it to an non m. now im in the market for an m2/3/4. good Luck!
From another F8x owner, i bought my 2018 M4 Comp at 32k miles and put 10k-11k miles in a year. I have to say, smiles per gallon for all those miles. An advice, have some extra cash put away 😂
Probably the last chance to get a clean one. Prices are getting lower and soon most will be clapped out. My advice~ be ready for expensive maintenance if you don’t do your own work. Just the parts for brake jobs are almost a grand per axle.
HIGHLY UNUSUAL to see a young person speaking with proper grammar! Especially in the car community. Also, I have a 2016 manual f80. If you can afford the surprise maintenance and scheduled maintenance bills, then yes you can daily it. I only put about 6 thousand miles per year on mine.
Hey man after one year of buying my f82 from the dealer my Apple CarPlay has expired. Do you know a place here in Vegas where I can get it activated again ?😊
Interesting to hear about the 1st gear issue. My civic si does something similar from time to time. Think it’s related to the synchros not being fully aligned. Thanks for the vid!
F8X arent worth it for how much thy going for. For the price a supra is a 10x better and reliable car. Or any M340/440/B58 platfrom car. Plus they look so dated and wont hold the value as much as the G8X. Everyone thought this was going to be the a last staight 6 M car thats offers a manual… and boom G8X has manual and Turbo staight6 and it sounds 100x better. The S55 sounds like a fart can honda 😂. And they look so tame compared to newer cars. Not worth 50k no where near. For 35k-40k def worth it.
Hillarious post..dont ever compare mlite B58s to an M S55. You have no idea what you talking about. Also the M cars love cornering..and are extremely agile..homie also included an M Lite Supra..smh
@@Metoy3r I mean no .. we get the point of the video .. I’m just saying it’s not realistic to expect problems on a car u only put 5k miles on with very low miles .. not really much of a good sample size
