2018 BMW M3 Competition Pack - Still The Benchmark?

[@karlgibson]

No, no no, you can't be doing this. You'll put Top Gear out of business :O One of the best produced car videos I've ever seen! Hope there's more where this came from :)

[@JoeKnowsBest]

This makes it all worth it 👍🏼 thank you

[@SK-rj6vx]

The edits are unreal. Serious talent. And solid content every time. 👌🏽 Waiting for you to get your hands on an AMG GT!

[@bruinsfan3725]

this comment sums up this channel so well

[@lukayonny5898]

Do u think top gear has bussines?

[@KaiZeeYT-os9jt]

Top gear shut down

[@oDiProductions]

Editing on this one is next level 💯 Makes me miss my E92 M3

[@SpencerBerke]

///M life ;)

[@oDiProductions]

Spencer Berke Whatup Spence!! 🤙🏼

[@abrahamg3354]

I know you'd buy it again. This time zcp.

[@Th3Falkas]

what do you have now?

[@oDiProductions]

abraham G yessir. Space grey ZCP. Add full akra exhaust and BPM Tune. Coil overs, wheels, big brake kit, and call it a day

[@LeBilletAuto]

Now that's what I call a cool review... the car is awesome, the best sedan ever. Hoping the 100k soon ! You deserve it ! Greetings from France ;)

[@realtywithseankemp9704]

Woah! Best sedan ever??? Watch It there son. 👊💀..haha it's all subjective. I will say it's a great time to be a car guy companys pushing out the best possible product they can with as much hp they can put under the hood to meet customer demands and It seems to be the year of the sports sedan which is awesome. Owned an m3 and m5 and a couple corvettes over the years. Last 2 years though I've daily driven a c63 amg sedan with some tweaks😉. So I've had plenty of outside experience. For this point and time and m current needs being what they are the c63 is what ill be driving for a while. Future though...who knows so many awesome options. Honeslty, I wouldn't even compare cars like the c63 and m3, the overall goal of each car and personality is so different. I think they are 2 very different realms. Each with a different idea of perfection. Best sports sedan? It's the one that fits you the best. Not going to pretend to know what is best for someone else.

[@SanandaMerrick]

Joe could you review an Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifolio? It would be great to compare the two👍

[@alekseyshcheglyuk3830]

Sananda Merrick too many reviews already on KZbin

[@TheSuperpod]

Individual youtubers these days put out such a high level of production. Just watched 3 in a row from different guys and all were absolutely stellar. Badass work, hats off.

[@stecky2010]

I bought this car 30 days after watching this video. I still own till this day. One of the best decisions I have ever made.

[@Gonzalex84]

Joe, thank you for the video ratio. First KZbin video where I was able to take advantage of my iPhone X full screen without cropping parts of the video. Oh, and thanks to you I’ll be selling my e92 and upgrading to f80. Thanks!

[@defineivan]

Alejandro Gonzalez dude I was thinking the same thing about the whole iPhone X thing! As far as trading really look into it. I worked at BMW for 4 years and I first bought my E92 M3 6MT but due to some complications I can’t drive a stick shift anymore so I saw it as a opportunity to upgrade using my employee discount. I took home a brand new 2017 for a weekend and I honestly didn’t like it as much. So I decided to just buy another E92(without employee discount) and just really build my own e92. That might not be for you, maybe you’ll like the F80 more but just really look into it before you jump Into and possibly regret it. A friend of mine has a E46 with less than 20k on it and he lives that car and leased a F80 and he said the same thing I said, it’s good for a lease but you get rid of it as soon as your lease is up. It’s just not special enough to keep. Just to drive. But again, just an opinion. From one e92 loving owner to another. Would love to hear what you decide to do though.

[@williamwilson5125]

Define Ivan I've owned a 2009 e92 M3 and now own a 2016 f80 M3 Dct and I love everything about the F80. The e92 has a better sound and a little better steering feel but that's where it ends. The f80 m3 does everything better. Faster, quicker, and lighter with a better ride IMO, and looks more up to date due to the e92 platform looking out dated. Did I mention better technologically. The f80 M3 is also a better and cheaper platform to upgrade due to being turbocharged. A tune and a downpipe and your at 600hp and 650ft tq for far less than what it takes to achieve that in a e92. Supercharge an e92 and it's almost the price of a second car and it still wont have the torque of the f80. Granted it was a different feel than the e92 which I didnt appreciate initially but after driving the car for a couple of weeks I understood what the f80 was all about. The f80 is not trying to be a e92, its setting it's own legacy down a different road.

[@rhenzlemuel09]

I own 1 and I still enjoy watching m3 vids man, couldn't have enough

[@AryanM3]

Glad you liked the car! The video turned out great.

[@Neil3D]

M8 that car would look sweet with a set of carbon tips, you possibly know about them, if not search "alibaba carbon tips F80" and you can get x4 M Performance Exhaust tips shipped from China for like $250... I just got some for my F83 CP and they're absolutely magnificent, properly finishes the back end off with the CF diffuser! If you're on Bimmerpost there's a thread on there talking about sizes etc called "Carbon Fiber Exhaust Tips" I can't put a link in here else the comment gets auto-blocked. Sweet car though m8.

[@felixh97]

Absolutely incredible editing and video quality. Putting shmee stg sol etc to shame

[@alekseyshcheglyuk3830]

GermanCitizen I hate shmees voice 😂 got so annoying that I just unsubed 🤣

[@sebduncan-king5783]

I was thinking the exact same thing. Top quality everything

[@Thousandairee]

BRO you definitely shot this one to edit. Captured my attention right from the beginning. The minimal scripting made it feel very well thought out and put together even though you probably only had the car for a few hours. Also BMWs use Google maps for their navigation which is a big deal in terms of automotive but not as big of a deal with the popularity of Apple car play/android auto which are AWESOME.

[@fmartin59]

Thousandairee That's what I loved about this. So simple because it's edited well. First ever video from his and I've subscribed.

[@aja23136]

Video production level over 9000

[@Svtcobra60]

6:04 That is quite the house.

[@yusufchoudry414]

Svtcobra60 rich mofos lol

[@carlj4992]

whats up with the house with the falling columns...

[@bruinsfan3725]

house is an understatement

[@Nathan-xp4rv]

Bro that aint no house thats a city

[@jcdebbs]

Lol that’s exactly what I thought when I saw it.

[@charleto9]

Saw you at the movies last night . Didn’t get a chance to say hi but wanted to let you know you make amazing content and your only going up from here .

[@JoeKnowsBest]

Should have come said hi! Thank you!!

[@NoWheelDrive229]

I think a lot of people hate the M3 BECAUSE it's the benchmark. Also, a lot of people don't understand what it means to have a car that does everything well as opposed to one that's FAST FAST FAST! Good review Joe.

[@fread51]

No Wheel Drive 229 bullshit your getting fucked over by BMW shit. Not worth the money

[@nameunko]

Buy a 440 and tune it, n58 sounds way better than the s55 piece of shit. People hate it because of the shitty sound.

[@Michael_00001]

People that hate on any particular car usually can't afford them anyway. It's all just jealousy in the end.

[@flomcdougall2143]

Yuan It's B58, not N58. Get your facts right before opening your mouth.

[@Michael_00001]

Club Bmw Amg - You aren't comparing apples to apples. Yes, perhaps an RS7 has 600 hp and AWD. But that's not Audi's direct competitor to the current M3 Comp. It's probably the S or RS4 (do they even make an RS4 anymore?) Maybe the S3? I dunno but you're talking about a huge jump in price for something that is comparable to an M5/M6. Around the ring, the M3 rapes those Audi's in the same catagory. And let me tell you, 450 hp and over 400 ft lbs of torque in my F80 Comp is pretty damn fast!

[@Diego-he1ku]

Probably one of the best m3 reviews out there

[@HarrisonNevel]

Loved seeing this comparison compared tot he original M4 videos, awesome to see the openers to opinion change!

[@adammccartan-mooney7797]

I love mine. Had it a year and a half and still makes me smile.

[@ashanlingam312]

The quality of your videos are amazing and the edits flow with the rest of it so well👍🏽. Keep up the good work joe

[@Boostd4]

Definitely my favorite M3 review. Well shot and edited.

[@ItsTwigs]

Man... You stepped up your game with this one. One of few KZbin channels I’m excited for new vids from. Edits are art.

[@hinds90]

Do this more!! Better video than most main stream reviewers

[@Scoobyfreak86]

That a boy. I am glad to see you seeing the light again on M3's. This such a great review and I was able to genuinely tell how much enjoyment this car brought you. Daily an f80 zcp m3 and weekend the GT3... do it.

[@THEBLAX21]

The shots in this video were incredible! I swear Joe can make things look better alone than a team of 10 people could! Never disappoints!

[@eateryu]

You get better with almost every video. This is another step up bro. I love BMW so I'm biased but honestly, you made this video so intriguing. You're beginning to tell stories rather than making videos. Keep it up!

[@CobraAquinas]

Thanks for making great video's, and not spamming us with vlogs. you're one of the few actual content makers. Thanks.

[@tysanborn554]

Joe, seriously. Your videos are soooooooooo dope, and if you were able to make them happen on a daily or every-other-day schedule, your channel would skyrocket! From the cinematography... to the music... to the actual content, you have a serious talent for this... Keep it up!

[@vincentfresco5767]

Joe, that was an amazing review. I am an Audi fan boy and I absolutely love the RS5 video but this video definitely topped it. You’re going to make every other car reviewing KZbinr go out of business and envy you and your skills

[@SeanDrinks]

I never commented on this video, but picture proof. This video made me buy that exact car. 2018 Yas marina blue comp package new back in summer 2018 from herb chambers bmw Boston. I watched the video the night before and while drinking in the middle of my Tuesday off went car shopping and the 3rd dealer had it and made the deal. Got rid of it in 2021 and still look back on it as my favorite. I want the new one in man of isles green, but finances are just not there to do it with my priorities. Great work Joe, wanted you to know you inspired a kid who forgot to come back and say thanks 👍🏽

[@kyletremberth]

Really well done, man. Keep up the awesome content. Maybe you could do a behind the scenes video on how you shoot all the footage - camera & drone settings, etc

[@AdamAus85]

Actual real exhausts. Mercedes should follow suit.

[@austinoakley7391]

To think you pull this off on your own without a huge production team and tons of money is just amazing! You're truly special not like any other car reviewer/vlogger on here keep it up, so look forward to your videos let's get you to 100k soon!!

[@keepit100kg]

I actually laughed at the shot with Nabil, lmao.

[@robinbarbieto1121]

Nick Lewandowski totally agree! Nabil killed it at the end 😂

[@wealllovepaton]

You’re video’s are just a pleasure to watch. It’s a breath of fresh air compared to every other reviewer out there.

[@sorted0blud]

Everything about this video is different gravy congrats Joe 10/10

[@Matthew-wz6sq]

The quality of your videos is absolutely INSANE!

[@slicksav4599]

I own a 2015 M3. To be quite honest I drove my friends 2017 competition package with the 444hp but didn’t feel much of a difference from my model which has a base 425hp. I did not go with blue instead a metallic grey which is a lot smoother and blends well with carbon fiber additions if that’s your flavor. Overall very impressed with the overall performance and drivability. It always gets attention but not to outrageous and the twin turbo and the broad torque range I barely feel any lag. Dinan already offers multiple stage kits to push the limit to well over 500hp but to be honest stock 425 is more than enough for me.

[@Clint_Not_Eastwood]

How is a car review video on KZbin this good! Geez! TV, high budget quality! Love it!

[@5078forLife]

Very underrated channel. Love the content and one of the best editors on KZbin imo

[@danielhoang011]

The editing is absolutely amazing on here man! Damn!

[@Mod2Fame]

Man Joe you really went ham on this video. We just need more videos from you...

[@trappermontana]

Quality review, Joe! This is my favorite review to date. Also, I like the bloopers outro. It illustrates how hard it is to shoot a single scene and all the work you put into it. Cheers!

[@mikevacy2495]

Another sick review yet again Joe🔥🤙🏾and even though Nabilel killed the last clip😎

[@Felipesweird]

Next video: I'm buying a M3 A year from now: Why I hate my BMW M3. Hahaha, awesome video/edit as usual. Such a nice car, but you (and your subscribers) already know that Porsche rules this game, so please get back to the mighty German and stop jumping over brands. Big fan !

[@JoeKnowsBest]

haha i'll say right now that i would never take an M car over a GT car from Porsche... But i'm man enough to admit the M3 and probably M2 are great cars for what they are!

[@ZaDude1970]

The BMW M3 Competition Pack makes 444 hp in the US & 450 hp in Europe instead of the mentioned 425 hp, which is the actual output of the regular M3/M4.

[@cna1406]

Its so impressive just you were able to make a video of comparable quality to a tv programme basically on your own. Puts big production companies to shame really. Well done 👏

[@KEITHKINOTI254]

I honestly swear this is one of the best review I've watched on KZbin and this being my favorite car helps too. Awesome review with the bloopers at the end.

[@xtremenum14ax93]

The editing and video quality on this video is some of the best I've ever seen out of a KZbinr

[@chupacabra377]

This might just be the best video you've done yet. Fantastic editing, great review, sick sick b-roll. And I second someone else saying you need to review the Quadrifoglio!

[@JohnGlasscock]

RIP Motor Trend

[@FPR2104]

Joe, the production quality on this is just next level... And that wasn't an easy task! Keep it up

[@newwoodlandsspring2601]

Appreciate the review Joe. Just purchased my first M car last week. Mostly will be an everyday/ second driver for myself. I'm looking forward to learning "Likes" and "dislikes" of the vehicle. Following.

[@cbz1956]

Sit in one with extended leather (and not in black) it dramatically changes the interior.

[@phillipberk5767]

CBZ and one that has an M performance steering wheel with the carbon and alcantara and shift lights, that makes a big difference

[@bimalpatel8606]

you mean full leather

[@cbz1956]

Bimal Patel yes! Full vs extended still screws me up

[@individualistds1646]

Full leather adds so much to the price, is it really that much better than the extended leather? I dream of one day buying one of these. I should stop watching videos like this until I can actually afford one

[@cbz1956]

Individualist DS I think it’s worth the improvement of the interior appearance, but yeah it’s a lot.

[@ricardorangeljr.5441]

Joe, you killed this video! I am starting to like your videos more and more. Keep it up dude, you’re going to attract a lot of eyes, and I wish nothing but success for you!! M4 review sounds dope, maybe an M2 as well?

[@hyypersonic]

Theres simply no bad angle on this car. Goddamn this thing is gorgeous. Its cars like these that are motivating me to stay in school

[@djhoddakabigscooby7089]

finally you BMW their props! I'm a e92 coupe owner and love the brand, great video, been rocking with you since day 1!

[@VEDEMRACING99]

Amazing quality review, color grading is on point! How do you not have more subs?? Also you should build a S2000 for your project car

[@bicepcurl157]

What a review. Thank you!

[@MlgLegacy806]

The production value of this video is insane!

[@jessecisneros4351]

Love the Bloopers at the end! 😂🤣 You should do them more often with Nabil!

[@TheHoffmaestro]

Joe... you really know the best bro...! Love your intro to the videos, the concept thrue out is amazing, so NOT quit doing this, progress is the way to success... 📈💯✔

[@ayoublahrim9312]

I love nabil’s shot at the end hahahaha

[@md4159]

Right, that’s it, I’m getting one. In that colour too. Superb motor.

[@DavesTJ]

Missed these types of video...Joe is back on his game

[@Neel-1]

You forgot to mention, that car also has the carbon fiber pack. Bumps up the price a lot. Test driving one tomorrow!

[@usmanrai1244]

the blacked out details looks dope

[@parkerfreitag6137]

Great headlight shots. Those turned out great.

[@BrandonWallach]

Amazing content joe!!! I’m a f82 owner and I can say you really did an amazing job with this video, this is a huge milestone for your channel since I’ve been a day 1 followed when I first found you from your video on why you hate your m4. Great review!

[@lifefordummies2983]

The quality of videos you make are amazing

[@kennyd7667]

I'd take a Giulia Quadrofoglio over this anyday, any week, any month, any year. (My phone battery died before I finished my comment 😂 lul). I'm not really bothered about the subpar interior I can live with a more plasticy interior for an engaging drive, and with the Ferrari style 'bumpy ride' button, it's seems like it would be quite comfortable, I love the jaw droppingly gorgeous looks and my God does that V6 (that's basically a Ferrari engine, ino it isn't literally one) sound absolutely splendid

[@SoloModz99]

Dream car, not getting married, not having kids until i have this.

[@damnitdang]

Goals bro. Wish you success

[@Barclaynathan]

Awesome technique of walking and talking and bloopers are awesome

[@jalloor]

Dope, so dope boy! Please do more country, windy road driving shots. They are way cooler than boring highway cruises.

[@CrooklynPilot]

Finally!! Love for M3. Massive shot out though on the video production. Maximum Effort! :)

[@cris_stn]

My God I wish I could have watched this video in 4k on my 55" tv !!!!! It looks so good even in 1080p !!!

[@richfromlondon3254]

Editing and content is next level! I'm pretty sure Joe and Nabil could make a video of an abandoned cardboard box look insane

[@jayoung597]

The production on this video was pretty sick!

[@Arturvalerio]

I almost teared tears of joy seeing joe being nice to a bmw

[@chevymaro92]

Joe loving the new review style!!! Keep more content coming.

[@gvaspirated]

Love the review man! This is the type of videos I need to be making! Great work!

[@franmagnin6375]

This reviews top any other youtubers, the edits are really good

[@bash8822]

I saw this car on a post for sale and fell in love with it. wish to own it someday

[@seanwilkes5792]

Joe is one of the best at this. Take notes people.

[@DexxonGamer77]

BMW has so much great stuff. The fastest 4 door the new BMW M5 competition. The M3 competition the benchmark in small saloons, the M2 the benchmark in little cars too throw around and the 850i the perfect GT.

[@Somethindrkside]

Never been the biggest BMW fan, but that thing is clean.

[@aarondunne3519]

The blues are all track names. FYI. This reminds me of the “Laguna Seca” blue from the e46. And those wheels are incredible! I enjoyed the bloopers at the end! Keep it coming!

[@danhall5761]

Aaron Dunne is there a Santorini race track?

[@sukhoi350]

FINALLY! None-boring (Starbucks coffee/ boring-day stuff content) lol. This is your best episode so far Joe! I'm starting a car youtube channel with my E92 M3 now and I use some of your editing and ideas as inspiration. Speaking of editing, how long did this episode take to edit for a tech pro like you? Just curious. Cheers! And keep up this sort of car content!

[@robertcrider5584]

Such a clean well put together video honestly on a new level. Great video

[@eliorehayem8093]

I drove this car a couple of days ago and it was the best thing I've ever driven.

[@shaanvarma1369]

Another great review Joe 👍. Get your hands on the new RS3, you will be pleasantly surprised at how quick it is. Look forward to your next review.

[@CopiumEnjoyer]

Dude. If you get it tuned (Using a proper flash tune, not just a piggyback boost controller), the power delivery becomes so much smoother and linear, and the M4 GTS transmission flash makes that transmission 96% as close to PDK, because it becomes so much more aggressive and the clutch clamps harder. If you think that a stock ZCP M3 is the benchmark, wait until you drive a slightly tuned one it's magical. If you ever come to Los Angeles, hmu if you wanna review it

[@burimduka1705]

What a great video... this kid is something special...

[@scottmchugh6508]

Yet again, Joe puts out an absolute banger!

[@LemogangM]

The editing skills just keep on improving!🔝 Awesome one Joe...

[@Juzpe69]

I'd really like to hear your opinion on the alfa giulia quadrifoglio as it seems you already have experience on M3, RS5 and C63

[@Skystreamgames]

Juissipeteri Same!

[@saskwotch19764]

Best carvlog editing ever? Great, great job 👍

[@xResourceHD]

Nabil is rly good at shooting and editing videos man! Impressive

[@leovillanueva5576]

Yes to the M4 review. Gotta compare them too.

[@3DTreats]

Nice review, nice editing, hilarious outtakes.

[@jaypers232]

Love this review my man - back to your roots!!
