I’ve now sold the M3 and bought this: • Porsche GT4 First Driv...
In this video I discuss my ownership experience, thoughts on the F80/F82 platform, what it's like as a daily driver and much more! I also detail the running costs of the car.
Not a typical review, but just me getting my thoughts out onto camera as if I was in the market for a well priced performance saloon, the M3 would definitely be my choice!
If you have any questions, just leave me a comment and I'll be sure to respond!

More info on the M3:
The M3 version of the F30 3 Series was designated the F80 and was produced from 2014 to 2018. The F80 M3 was powered by the BMW S55 twin-turbocharged straight-six engine, therefore being the first turbocharged M3 model. Despite the smaller displacement than the V8 engine used by the previous generation of M3, the switch from naturally aspirated engines to turbocharging resulted in peak power being increased from 309 to 317 kW (420 to 431 PS; 414 to 425 hp), and peak torque being increased from 400 to 550 N⋅m (295 to 406 lb⋅ft).
The official 0-97 km/h (0-60 mph) acceleration times are 3.9 seconds with the M-DCT transmission and 4.1 seconds with the manual transmission. Top speed is limited to 250 km/h (155 mph) but an optional M Driver's package raises this to 280 km/h (174 mph). The kerb weight is 1,621 kg (3,574 lb).
The F80 M3 was unveiled, alongside the F82 M4 (its coupé counterpart), at the 2014 North American International Auto Show. In 2016, a Competition Package became available for the M3 and M4. Changes included an increase in power to 331 kW (450 PS; 444 hp), revised tuning of the electronic differential and the electronic stability control ("DSC"), suspension upgrades and new front seats. The official 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) time was 4.0 seconds with the dual-clutch transmission.
