i dont get people hating on martijn's reviews, i really enjoy both him and max. both share the same passion for cars!

I don't see any hate.

[@christpower5402]

Who is Martin? Is he Max’s brother?

Yeah, Max is a special talent but they are both enjoyable and together have created the best channel on you tube

[@braidontennant]

it's because he literally reviews bad cars and just does autobahn pulls

I actually have to say, that I really enjoy watching Martin doing the last few reviews. At first I wasn't sure how I felt about it but I grew to like it more and more. I guess not everyone seems to get along with his way of doing reviews but in my opinion Martin adds his very own nice touch to them which makes for a nice change. I'd like to see more reviews done by him in future even if Max is the main review guy.

[@jamesmello5358]

i never comment on these videos, just because theyre always so well done and i love how max does the interviews, watching martin give a review is just as enjoyable as max and its funny how they kinda sound the same too, dont know why hes getting hate, i like his style and hes got a good sense of humor.

[@tjuroyares]

for real .. if I'm being honest i never noticed the difference until people started saying this and that

[@demurgetroid]

I love the gesture control on my BMW! You can use thumbs right/left to skip tracks, and close/open fist to start home route navigation etc. Plus you can simply turn the gesture control OFF in settings if you hate it so much rather than whinging about it so much haha!

[@AL-gh6co]

Thanks for your video. Ordered one a month ago, so that helped me to keep me busy. Few amendments, though: 1. The colour is called Brooklyn grey, not Nardo Grey which is an Audi thing. 2. It is not a "BMW Individual" colour. 3. The 3d cylinder head is a S58 thing, not a F97 LCI thing, meaning that also the 600Nm version had it. 4. The "new display" also existed pre-LCI with the 2020 model. 5. Illuminated logos are not an LCI thing either. No disrespect, but a lil research would be helpful.

[@maxmannonen8170]

Great review!

[@assettocorsaltu922]

@AutoTopNl You have two major problems with your settings for launch control. 1. DSC OFF. Dont turn it off and it will much better 2. 4wd xdrive mode. You basically send most of the power to real wheels with dsc off and want perfect launch? Select AWD xdrive mode and engine into sport mode not sport+ (+will not give any more power.)

[@AutoTopnl]

1. Launch Control does not work with DSC off 2. Launch Control does not work with Sport

[@assettocorsaltu922]

@@AutoTopnl If you dont see LC message or flag you think it doesnt work? On all F series vehicles you can launch control from any mode, comfort, sport, sport+, DSC off, but LC message comes only in sport+ mode. I Dont know how on this X3M but im sure in any mode with brake and kickdown it should hold the rpms (~3500 or whatever). And anyway, in any bmw if a guy says that bmw launches shit with xdrive - its only a driver problem. IF you see that vehicle struggles with grip, just do brake boosting from 2000-2500rpm. IF this X3M struggles a lot now, it only means it has very very very strong launch control already from factory (without LAG as many vehicles do) and thats very good if u like to go to same drag races. You need to install some sticky soft tyres and play with the rpms. So for me these comments about very shit launch control is nonsense, its actually vice versa.

I've taken my X3M comp to the track. Brakes are not a problem and yes they last longer than 5 laps. Also all the complaints about gesture control is unnecessary. Place a small piece of electrical tape over the red IR transmitter in the ceiling and it's blocked. End of funny comments.

I actually tried a lot of Michelins on my F80 including PS4S, Cup2s and etc. ... those tires are ok the first 1k kms and than it is just ****. I am driving only Pirellis now and I really love them, the grip and the control is on another level and they lasted more than 8k kms without any issues.

[@thomax7689]

You made pretty nice video but i think now it's time to have a better sound xperience. Like a mix with microphone at the back to ear the exhaust, at the front for the intake. A 3d sound, cause even with earphone you don't have a better sound xperience. And i think that's every body want here. Even if. You do a very good job ;)
