Covered 2000 miles, what's the M3 Touring like? | 4k

[@Kelveron]

New car, new house, new podcast, new frequent flyer champ! There is no stopping Joe Achilles. 😂

[@rg6982]

This M3 is actually so so perfect! Years to come, we will look back and it will sure be known as one of the greats

[@MichaelWoloszynowicz]

Yeah the yellow DRLs look fantastic. Tempting to get this on my M4 Comp LCI

[@tonwhelan]

Very tastefully upgraded Joe and I absolutely love those yellow LEDs. They suit the colour of the car so well.

[@Adam-M1]

Love the lights Joe. Looking forward to you fitting the after market wheels from your saloon on this touring! Cheers.

[@bellastaffypearmapearman2666]

your rise is phenomenal,absolute legend. You deserve all your success fella.👍

[@MegaRetr]

Love the lights Joe.

[@Flip_Angle]

I bought a bmw and now look forward to your videos like a kid does Christmas. Look what you made me do!! LoL Love your work 🎸

[@MichaelWoloszynowicz]

Did you put spacers on it as well Joe? The stance looks nice and wide.

[@ahorton6786]

Engine bay is looking clean enough to eat your dinner off, and loving those yellow LEDs, they look so good!

[@hl236]

Good luck with the podcast. Less competition than creating car videos, higher average watch time and more engaging comments! There is probably only 1 automotive podcast for every 200 Automotive KZbin channel.

[@SomeCan.]

Nice car and well done Joe, great clip again!🎉

[@TheDailyDriven]

I wished the US had the opportunity of getting the G81. Would have been a big contender. The way I can explain your exhaust setup now, it's the gentlemen spec 🤙🏻. But I know what you mean where you were pushing some of those limits. Great review as always 👏🏻. Getting in and out of the seats do become a task. Try using the door sills as a base to push off of. This has allowed me to avoid of destroying the side bolsters. I made a video about it too a few months back.

[@chriscampbell867]

Just got back from Germany at The ring, saw one of these cars.. very handsome in person. My buds and I were all looking hard.

[@ibana8449]

Evening, Just looking at the M3 Touring and came across your review, well I already love and enjoy PetrolPeds channel, so now following your channel and the new podcast. I am booked into Sunday's FOS this year and would love to hear you two do a FOS newbie visitor guide. Already plan to breakfast at the Porsche Club as per PetrolPed recommend. Great review and what a find your channel is. Good luck . Ivan

[@phillipchandler8862]

Good to catch up with your views on the M3 Touring. Will be interesting to hear how it fits into your life after a few thousand miles. After all it's a car that people have been asking for for many years. We all have our views on after market add ons and I think yours are tasteful but I can't help but question their value for money over stock with such an expensive car. Hearing your comments regarding the carbon seats make me think they are best reserved for the coupe models where the doors are bigger giving easier access and the cars are more likely to get some track time where the benefits will be felt. Thanks for the update. Cheers Joe.

[@alinm1015]

Love the car but those exhaust tips are just too big,just a smidge bigger than stock would have been perfect

[@MarkB4444]

Exhausts look so wrong 😬

[@karlInSanDiego]

Touring looks really cool and pretty practical. Can't ever get used to long rev hang

[@GavSloan]

The yellow daylights really suit the car. Like Joe says especially with the grey body colour! 👌

[@mynameIan]

Can’t believe that BMW don’t bring this to North America. As a Brit living in Canada, I long for more proper driving vehicles in estate/wagon form. Nice video. Good luck with the getting in shape. I watched this whilst drinking beer and eating popcorn.

[@leobats14]

fantastic video sir

[@motorconcierge]

I had the chance to ride the car last weekend. It was an absolute blast. What I was most surprised is by how good the interior built quality is and how far the infotainment system has jumped ahead compared f.e. to Audi. For a daily a bit too stiff for me, but videos often don't do justice to how crazy this car launches.

[@I_am_Monty]

I found that the stock resonator really does remove drone. I went for a slightly different set-up on my x3m. I did a custom midpipe with stock resonators and stock back box. You get to hear and feel the true s58 from inside and outside plus the upshift is hard loud.

[@BenArends-s9k]

What a beautyfull car it is! I got my M4 convertible in Stratus grey delivered at about the same time as you picked up the touring. Nice to follow your videos and see how you personalize your touring.

[@spadgm]

Great stuff Joe, the upgrades are all stunning!

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Love it Joe, editing/intro I’ve noticed a slight difference too! Keeping us on our toes 😆 insulted the Tesla then complimented the driver 😅 great vid bro!

[@magma1526]

Keep it up Joe! The M3 Touring is my favorite car on your channel and a brilliant design!

[@Pulitnt]

I liked the comment on the Tesla haha :D

[@beckygair2272]

Wicked video Joe Love the new style of Lights -daytime running lights in yellow Defo suit the car now

[@faizalhakim3772]

Love the car and the positive vibes

[@ashman0071]

Savage Whip - great channel - still plenty of time for you to own something with the engine in the right place ; P .

[@siecweb]

Definitely this video puts my mind into 340d that for sure 😊 Powerful and way more efficient.

[@andrewsmith7636]

Amazing mate love it

[@andrewhurstcars]

Nice update Joe. With the ride, mpg, cabin noise, and £30k saving, it sounds like the M340i might be the best buy in Touring format. In your M2 review, you said you might not have got the Touring if you had driven the M2 earlier - is that still the case?

[@biddyboy1570]

I've not tried the M3 touring but coming from a F82 M4 I can tell you that the G21 M340i doesn't disappoint.

[@sebastian.brottman]

Interested to know this as well :)

[@hardchemist]

People are already putting the M2 on a dyno and measuring 474HP to the wheels! Same as a standard M4 basically.

[@smwatson1512]

M340i is definitely the sensible choice. Who's going to track an M3 touring? Hardly anyone. On the road the M340i is the better car.

[@andrewhurstcars]

@@smwatson1512 yup even Joe said he’s not going to track his, when he was talking about PPF. Touring body seems to move the argument to M340i.

[@matteo8895]

love the yellow day light runners!

[@ovinesongs]

Milltek is a stones throw from me Joe. Thinking about getting a system on my M140i stage 1 MHD. If you fancy a blast next time your up let me know dude👍M3 touring sounds and looks the business!

[@richardchristie6708]

Love, Love your M3!!!

[@BROWITT2010]

The yellow lights are amazing!!

[@DavidTaylor-xd5ng]

Great looking motor. Thanks for the update.

[@tomd328]

Great video as always, Joe

[@davidbillberg2203]

Thanks for the update on the M3 Touring, it still looks so damn good!

[@s10lucky]

It’s perfect now!!! Love those lights. What a huge difference in the way it looks. Almost like wolfs eyes 😂

[@quantttum]

I think the Estate version does alleviate the front-end design issues because it has that amazing back end

[@davetreanor5303]

Your G81 has to be the nicest one in the Uk! You’ll have to keep it forever.

[@pjmoody]

Great update Joe. Thanks for sharing

[@kraakjalg]

In Northern Europe, I'd definitely lose my warranty with all those mods. I imagine if Joe's M3 T turbos will brake down, the dealership could say it's because of Eventuri due to changes in the flow and temperatures. Same with the exhaust and the engine. I see it as a pure gamble. Surprised by the mpg though. In my opinion, it's quite a fuel efficient considering the power and acceleration figures.

[@EnterTheFenix]

I guess the attitude is, if you can afford to get one of these new, then you can afford to replace anything that breaks due to the modifications...

[@robertcocks2145]

Daytime running lights look ace!

[@gavinlewis3049]

Big thumbs up on the lights, as soon as I saw them I thought, they look different, didn't click to me that they look like the csl ones, I haven't seen that car that much.

[@iBladey]

Great engine bay upgrades..... looks so good.

[@hitek3943]

Nice with another video Joe! I see you still have the transport protection tape on the M badge on the passenger seat :D

[@tommy516]

It looks sooooo goooood! I'm happy with my M3 Comp, but this is amazing looking! Wish we could get this in the US....BMW!

[@brianstewart74]

Joe I think you are the man to resurrect the top gear franchise after a dismal couple of years of it.👍🏻

[@brycebrown1]

Full on! The lights look really, really good 👍

[@KUBABATIJUS]

The DRLs look mega! Great spec Joe!

[@garysimpson3900]

As a matter of interest, how do these mods affect the BMw warranty especially if you are PCP or Leasing the vehicle?

[@FabinFlacht]

Gone 100%

[@Bewareofthedog69]

That's a beautiful looking machine, I'm slightly jealous.

[@DeltaDubai03]

This Touring looks really good inside and out. The engine bay might be the highlight...

[@R8andGT3Fan]

Nice vid, as always! 😎

[@geoffchaplin2123]

Great update Joe 👌

[@kdm_entertainment]

Those exhaust tips just look too big imo

[@jpdp3339]

Love the yellow

[@mkm6073]

So many updates but still the sticker on the passenger seat logo? 😅

[@MsGman598]

These cars look epic in the flesh especially in this colour 😍

[@ghost_lukh]

Car looks mad awesome - welldone

[@santana9537]

Love your car so much Defo similar spec and similar mods when I get my M3 Saloon

[@agraf85]

Is it just me?! I think these tipps are way to big and looks horrible 😅

[@simonhancock2511]

Totally agree. The whole car is about as subtle as a sledgehammer.

[@douglasturner1257]

@@simonhancock2511 it is an M3!

[@simonhancock2511]

@@douglasturner1257 exactly. Should be a subtly pumped up version of the 3 series as per previous models. The new one has stick on bits everywhere and looks far too chavvy for me but each to their own

[@Singh-qy4ps]

Although it’s an M3 and it’s made to stick it out. Can’t help but notice how the tips ruin the backend.

[@Lifeseasy-z1c]

Just you

[@SilkcutHHH]

@Joe Achilles How have you found having a front splitter on the car on UK roads/everyday driving I.e. driveways, car parks, speed bumps etc?

[@Khathutshelo_N]

LED lights are on the next marvelous level!

[@richardbursey7262]

Loving the hoodie. And the car obvs.

[@TheKeinahnung]

The exhaust tips are really too much. Stay with the normal ones. They look Miles better!!!!!

[@victorgibbons4237]

Great video Joe 👏🏻 I’m interested to hear if you’ve made a visit back to Suspension Secrets with your M3 Touring?

[@cliftonmcintosh6193]

Love them very very nice Joe 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

[@PrettyGreenMonk]

The yellow lights look awesome mate

[@andrewrogersdewpoint5662]

South Bucks, Joe? You’re about as far north as you could be 😂 - agree about the quality of the roads around Stowe and the whole of north bucks, absolutely dreadful and is steadily killing my 5 Series one pothole at a time! Great video, as always Joe. Must keep an eye open in future, seems we share the same neighbourhood…

[@hensh911]

Loving the plate 😂

[@ozemsadventureofrandomstuf252]

Mann Mr Joe I’m really impressed with your work. I’m glad I watched carwow and got your details from Mat 😅 You converting me slowly to BMW😅 but only the 320D and M340 nothing else 😂

[@pearsebarrett2660]

Love it Mate 😊

[@nop8v]

do you like the general drive on the car??? on a bumpy road??? is the m spots car seat good for the rathet bumpy road ????????would you be able to go on a 2~3hour drive smoothly on this carseat???? thank you

[@Chris-yg3nj]

"I think yout car is really ugly but you're a very nice person" 😂😂

[@an09dre]

❤ Great up date Joe. I wish you would go a step further and ECU Remap 😮😳But obviously warranty issues 😢 Cheers

[@chrispayne1029]

Great Video car looks 💯👌👍Joe

[@MarkB4444]

To add though the rest looks awesome

[@marlonbaird6070]

I wish the put up the front grills of the 340i,I can't get used to those grills..but the rest of this car is stunning

[@ahlsn7346]

Im sorry but the exhaust tips and the yellow DRL looks like something the boys with Volvo 740s would do here in Sweden. But hey, what ever you like.

[@FNG2584]

Hi Joe, we are about the same size, whats your thoughts on the Carbon bucket seats for longer drives?

[@Tubes23]

Interesting regarding consumption. Appreciate its a different shape, weighs a bit more and used a lot for content but spec’ing DAP is a massive plus for managing fuel. Can see 35mpg in the g82 xdrive and 30/32 on a mixed drive commute of 30 miles.

[@reset1101]

As always with Joe, very entertaining and informative video. I think you should record a video together with Sam (STG) on your M3 Tourning to share your experience with him, and maybe make him get one :)

[@TheZigzagsteve]

The DRL’S look mega, really like them. Looking for a way now to change them on my M140 shadow edition 👍

[@Adam-M1]

Also wanting to find a way! Think Evolve said the ones they had weren’t compatible but there may be more available since then as this is a recent thing.

[@TheZigzagsteve]

@@Adam-M1 yeah, eyes open 👀 😂. For the moment I may just try to take my ones out and cover in a yellow/amber film..

[@milzy83]

Which parts voided your warranty if any?

[@revlucm7301]

I’ve been speaking to Evolve about CLS lights and their CLS carbon grill, which will be next on my list…i want to lower it as well (G82) but worried about the ride quality? New dash is awful, just because its new doesn’t make it better…

[@DenizGursu-oc3sk]

Your spec is very very beautyful.

[@kammy7865]

Where did you get the exhaust tips from?

[@user-om2fg7yh6s]

The touring looks incredible Joe, love the yellow LED's. Overall would you say you prefer the touring to the saloon?

[@tsardikorsou9817]

@JoeAchilles1, do you like the Dravit grey better than the Oxid Grey?

[@walterzxr]

@Joe Achilles How have you found the yellow leds?

[@sadman6295]

Joe do the parts you've put on invalidate the BMW warranty?

[@M3TouringGlobalChannels]

Nice video mate. Trying to match your Mod list will be expensive!! 😂

[@raldyjimenez3319]

Does the Eventuri add power

[@McLeod750]

Royal Steering wheel coming?

[@ricardopinto1765]

Hi Joe... Car looks awesome,regarding interior mods have you wonder changing the paddle shifters to the Evolve one's in titanium I think??? The yellow DRL lights looks good 😉👌👏😉k
