What It's Like To Own A BMW E92 M3!! 

My 2012 M3 has 241,000 miles on it and still going strong. I got it new.

E92 M3 is the Ring track car to have. With all these reviews on the E92 M3, prices are going up for the good ones. Dream car for sure!

E92 M3 is a legend and will be a modern day classic. Bespoke engine and its classic looks have aged well.

Best M3 gen ever made!

By far the best M3.

As someone who’s put nearly 150k hard miles on the E9x chassis, I can tell you it’s a really hard chassis to beat. The experience of this car is what makes this car so amazing. Common misconception that people have - low mile cars aren’t better than average/high mile cars. It’s all about maintenance. Low mile cars generally lack that.

The most special of all M3 generations next to the E30. The last true M car to be powered by a bespoke, Motosport derived high revving, ITB equipped N/A motor. They have aged extremely well!

My M5 E39 and B8 S4 are 2 different beasts. But I need E92 in my life ofcourse manual. Never driven DSG nor automatic paddle shifting performance car. I can say beaten many with my 3 pedal vehicles which suprises many. I like this video and E92 SOUND never gets old!!!!!!

I’m Glad this guy is doing well. Vehicle virgin did him raw

Who love turbos like track days, but for street driving no turbo and no supercharger. You don't need it. Beside it will suck your bank account fast..have two naturally aspirated, and just love them both 2010 E92 and a 2013 E92 M cars and nothing else has that type of driving experience..! You guys are great infomercial road testing experts for the brand.

It’s my fav m3 period

I’m getting one of these shortly. The sweetest M3 in my view.

Normally Im a JDM fan boy but the E92 M3 and the E63 M6 are still my guilty pleasures 😈

I love mine. I did the rod barrings and motor mounts out of precaution but it’s been remarkably reliable.

Hi from a Perth Western Australia. Nice work guys. I am on my 4th e90/92. Had a ESS 625 SC e92 , another e92 FBO and 2 e90 FBO , keep coming back to them. Definitely no need to SC the V8 , more fun as is. I have a full Akra exhaust with test pipes, it’s the quietest I have ever had but will add a full intake and plenum soon, I have finally learnt after 57 years that’s the way to do it. Honestly better off playing with carbon fibre drive shafts and lower ratio diff ratio if you want a supercharger feel. Now I need to grab a E 60 M5 before they get too expensive. I have a Ml63 with the 6.2 very fast but like BMW more I think so no C63 amg for me. You guys are right, I get nothing out of new crazy fast cars, this vintage is the best for true drivers cars that give back to you. M, RS, AMG Lexus ISF.Maserati 4200 GT , and or early Maserati QP with F1 transmission, pre 2008. That’s my list. 😬

My favorite M3, and the one I would be most interested in owning.

Amazing cars. Love mine. It's a bit heavy, probably its only drawback. They can be stripped down to close to 3k and it makes it an insanely capable track car, easily matching GT3 lap times at my local tracks with proper setups. But as a daily (only drawback mpg) or dual duty track car, its hard to beat. And you can find them in the mid $20k's all day!

Back when you had to pick between the Boss 302 and e92 I was really hoping for the M3.

I had a 2013 E93 loved that car

I had one. Great car! That DCT is wicked.

These cars are so good. I always go back and forth between DCT or manual, my heart tells me manual

I bought mine, a 2012 comp back in 2020 for only 27k cad. Somehow the car market went berserk and I sold it a year later for 50k. Still regret selling

Car of my dreams .

I got my E92 tcu tuned at a place in the PNW called 22rpd, dramatically changed the gear changes. There was little to no delay in thr dct gear changes. They made it perform like the f8x dct gear speed. Idk how they did it, but they did.

Weird how cars go through cycles. I weren’t really into the e92s - always preferred the e46 M3s, but how good does this look! Appreciation for these have gone up ten fold.

The M3 e92 GTS has a rear wing from the factory (which is fire orange btw). Nice car you reviewed 😎, I am biased towards white e92s though as I have one 😁

U need a front carbon lip on this thing esp on a white e92. It's a must. Changes the whole front end.

I test drove one years back to buy, awesome package, but not on the same level as the GT350. Two of the top NA cars though of the last 15 years.

Has to be a manual for me,to each their own but if it doesn’t have a man pedal I wouldn’t buy one

E46 m3 is the best m3. Best size and s54 engine is a gem too.

Love my e93 m3

Never did the rod bearings, just a battery and Throttle actuators.

Lol why is the guy from valvetronic driving the car lol in the beginning

This DCT is the best DCT after the DKG in the Porsches

What’s the name the wheels and size

Dude's got a GT3 and an M3 - that's epic!

Yes no questions asked.

It’s not the only M3 to come with a V8 🫣 (Every e9x M3 RU-vid video says it’s the first/only/last V8 M3) 🤷🏼‍♂️ They are great cars 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

What’s name of those wheels and size

Wheels are nice. What size?

Would you get one of these or a W204 C63 as a long term fun car? Or maybe even a RCF?

F80 have nothing tò compare with 9x3m the s65 engine nominated 2008,09,10',11'12 the best One!!!

Where was this shot in Phoenix?

This guy having a GT3 and a Mclaren saying that these are reliable after taking care of a few “minor things” tells you what you need to know about the maintenance costs of these.

Why did you buy it? My friend always liked it...... 😂😂😂

Conrod bearings ?

Dct trans sounds slow. Get the GTS tune

The only thing is the power numbers . I think noone came with 420hp like advertised.

Totally sidestepped the how much question...js

I will never forget that gearbox kick in this car, so special 🫡

The m6 has a v8

Fuel consumption - how bad?

Such a great car

That U turn in middle of the road at 7min ish was sketchyyyy

You both speak English really well! I love the e92 M3🙌🏻

Cool motor. Didn’t really care for the platform. Heavy. Steering not that great even in the era. The DCT is too slow. I do love manuals, but I do respect those that don’t want or can’t drive them. But no reason to get a DCT in this car.

To me it's not the best looking M3, I don't like the front or back that much. Great engine though! Did they offer a manual in the E92?

the best m3 e46

Great car but the lack of torque and lifeless feeling below 4k rpm means it feels like you’re driving a prius most of the time if you’re doing mostly city driving. Above 4k rpm is a lot of fun tho and sounds great. C63 from that gen is much more enjoyable as a daily but certainly worse if you’re gonna track it. Seating position in the m3 also feels like you’re refereeing a tennis match

Blasphemy… the best M3 is the e46

The F80 m3 is a better car for your money. Yes the 9x m3 sounds great but thats about it. To extract any power from the e9x youll have to get yourself a bank loan aswell another loan to maintain it. The f80 its basically bang for buck. Also the e9x never made claimed power. At best they would make sub 340 to 380hp max

Find an lc500 owner

Knock knock!!! Who's there??? Rod!!!! Rod who??? Rod Bearing!!!!!

not even manual eddie aha...please dont tell me its analog when its autooo :'( aha...keep going man like your enthusiast !!

You mean the worst? Engine was total crap didn't last 100k, brakes was terrible, no steering power ,all electronic disaster....

nice m3 but W204 C63 all day over this car 😂

Too heavy, too numb

The M3 F80 is the Best no doubt

335i better 🤷🏽‍♂️

Overrated money pit.

The best m3 up to date is g80 ….. period
