Here's How Shockingly Similar the BMW E92 M3 and Mustang GT350 Really Are

Spot on review. I’ve owned both cars, moved from the m3 to the gt350. The m3 is incredibly impressive given when it was built, but by today’s standards it just is a bit slow. The GT350 is a bit more wild and aggressive, has a better suspension setup but feels huge in comparison.

[@johnnyvudu]

When it came time to buy a new car last year I had two I was torn between two. The M2 and the GT350. I ended up going for the GT350 for the shear rawness and everyday excitement the car brings. Not a time goes by that I start it up and feel bored or complacent after 8 month of driving it. And when I get on it hard the smile is still ear to ear, every time...

[@lenf3641]

Same here. Was contemplating between M2 Comp and GT350. I choose GT350. GT350 has soul. See myself get boring with M2.

[@captainminecraftist]

damn im in the same boat right now. except ive realized ill get used to the power inthe m2 so im torn between e92 m3 which i like the sound of better and its smaller and FEELs smaller. But the gt350 has power and handling and modern stuff ughh. I hate decisions. I was honestly just really surprised at how cheap gt350s are in the current market. Right now they are high 40's

[@willjam465]

Have owned both cars. Agree with your takes on them. Both wonderful cars. Love both engines, but M3’s just revs out smoother from my recollection. Miss them both. Probably miss the M3 a little more. It was much easier to live with on a daily basis.

[@LS2Z51]

Great comparison and thoughtful insights, as always. E90 M3 owner here (and GT350 admirer) and I had wondered about this - many questionss answered!

[@kpxkrnkidx]

I had an e90 as well, and currently own a GT350. There’s something special about a high revving naturally aspirated V8, but the GT350 just wins by nearly every account other than not being German

[@lenf3641]

You were smiling in GT350. That tells me what car you prefer better. I was considering buying 2020 M2 Competition or 2020 M4 Competition. Test drove both. But when I drove 2019 GT350 and compare the prices, it was no brainer for me. Current M class BMWs are synthetic(steering and automatic rev matching) feels to drive various GT350 feels like a driver car and what I missed from E93. I'm now owner of GT350 and like you said - it's very rewarding to drive her.

[@dho]

Was really looking for a video just like this. It takes a careful eye that many car enthusiasts gloss over to realize that both of these cars have something special. It's a pretty crazy concept since they're totally different cars on the outside and the companies are reputable for very different things, but it's really interesting that they both created these seemingly one off cars that shared so much in common

[@CJBarbour]

Had a ‘17 Mustang GT w/ the performance package, 6 speed and the power pack that added the gt350 induction and tuning from Ford Racing. Kept it a year and traded it in for a ‘13 E92 M3 DCT with the competition package. I couldn’t go back. The Ford interior feels like it is cheaply made whereas the M3 feels solid and comfortable. Another big difference is the Ford back seats are unusable for an adult compared to the M3 which can sit two full size adults. The overall package the M3 has even after all these years makes it a better choice for me over a gt350 unless you’re buying a track car.

[@davidarmstrong3989]

Agree 100%. Just sold my 2017 Mustang and kept my 2011 E92 M3 with DCT. Mustang feels cheap and seating position sucks. Seat belt cuts me right across the neck. Have had a bunch of Mustangs and 6 E90 & E92 M3’s. BMW just wins, especially now that they are cheap.

[@andymantoronto]

Hey....where's the laugh in the opening??? It always makes me laugh, please bring it back.

I've driven both back to back as well and agree with you. I would still pick the M3 all day!

[@sammatchett6014]

@@moneyparhar The BMW sounds great, and the mustang sounds good too. However the mustang doesn't sound very refined, it almost sounds broken, but still very good. The issue with the mustang is the plastic interior, it ruins the experience. Also the brakes are not shared between the M3 and the 3-series cars in the e9x generation.

[@cartergarnon6299]

Did anyone else notice that the brand new M8’s body is eerily similar to this Mustang?

[@NatoriousGamePlay]

Thanks to crash safety standards. Many cars in the same category will tend to have similar body lines. Can't get around that anymore unless you are spending close to or over a million dollars

[@JoeMcEvoy369]

You can't beat the MagnaRide in the GT350 but the EDC in the E90 M3 with upgraded Bilstein EDC dampers is a great alternative. I run Dinan swaybars and springs in mine, with the Bilstein EDC setup, and it offers three distinctive settings. I also run high-flow cats and a Dinan silencer with upgraded coilpacks and throttle bodies and an intake with an AFE filter, and it's helped the low-end torque issues that the S65 V8 is noted for. The fit and finish of a 2009 M3 along with the venerable iDrive system is still great ten years along. A nice supercharger kit is in the works in the future as I love the styling and the flexibility of the M3. By flexibility I mean that it's luxurious inside, racy when you hit the M Button, and low key on the road when you want quiet and comfort. I have the E93 version which is a hardtop convertible with a rear frame stiffener and although it's considerably heavier than the coupe, it is a very capable sports car and feels more planted the faster you drive it. I love the Ford (THAT SOUND!) but the fit and finish of the interior and complaints about squeaks and rattles from GT350 owners after just a few thousand miles for a car that costs twice the price make me doubtful I would ever trade my M3 for one. He mentioned that the M3 is based on a regular 3-Series but if you put a regular 3-Series on a lift next to an M3 and looked at the underpinnings, the M3 is a sports car based on a track tuned car. The Getrag sevn speed dual clutch gearbox is the exact same unit Ferrari sourced in the California V8. It's still great by today's standards even though the Porsche PDK gearboxes and others are simply amazing. When asked what I don't like about the M3, I would say the steering rack could be quicker, like the rack that was put into the Lime Rock Edition M3 or the M3 Competition models. A retrofit is easy if one can be found and would be worth it. The proportions are eerily similar as he mentions and although the M3 is a smoother design that has aged well, the GT350 has more presence and is a lot more muscular. I would say my tuned M3 is a great cross between a Ferrari California and a Mustang GT as far as sound, luxury, performance, maintenance, and handling and original price with the mods and options I have. The iDrive system is amazing though and intuitive and a plus over even the Ferrari's nav system and is a big reason you see so many Bimmers on the road. It's even easier to navigate than Audi's newer MMI systems. Get a low mileage M3 V8, throw some mods and a supercharger on it- upgrade those rod bearings of course ;)- and save some money and wait for Ford to catch up in the fit and finish and you'll be happy owning the Bimmer long term and be more satisfied with it's "dual personality" usability. Buy a used Z06 Corvette if you want to go fast in American Muscle and get attention for the same price as a GT350. ;)

[@zhaoyangxie]

Have u driven a f80/82 m3/4 before? How do u think it compares to the e92? I’m on the edge of getting either

[@JoeMcEvoy369]

@@zhaoyangxie They are beautiful and very quick. If you can find one in Yas Marina Blue or Austin Yellow with a nice Sakhir Orange or cream colored interior, you'll have a stunning vehicle. The sound isn't as great as the V8 M3 but with a Burger Motorsports Tune and upgraded intake and exhaust, the performance is off the charts and the reliability seems great as of now. If you can find one with a DCT and the carbon ceramic brake option, you'll surely enjoy it to the limits more. There are examples in the high $30k range that pop up weekly and seem very worth it. The torque from the twin-turbo I6 is amazing down low where the V8 suffers and mileage of course is improved. It'll be my next car and I'll trade in the M3 unless I can find a nice M Coupe (06-08) in a great color as they are truly the last 'visceral' M Cars ever produced. With a set of Forgestar F14 wheels and upgraded coilovers and swaybars, they are so much fun and will hold their value because there are less than 1500 in the country! Great feel from the hydraulic rack and although the Caymans are more balanced, the exclusiity and the fact that maintenance can be done by just opening the hood are huge pluses. If you're a Bimmer guy, they are the car to get NOW. They styling although polarizing when they were first released has aged very well and the interiors have too. Hope this helps...

I've been saying this for years myself. Love them both. I think the gt350 is definitely a more raw theater filled experience where the m3 is more refined

that wheel bending bump...

[@gregs8685]

Former e90 M3 owner here. I can confirm it did not feel that fast when I bought it 2011! Smooth, high revving and fabulous sounding yes, but it feels very ordinary unless revved to redline in each gear. The main reason is the weight of the e9x, just too heavy for a small NA V8. If BMW made the larger 4.4L version of the S65 engine (was only available in the GTS and CRT) standard in all M3s, and trimmed 200 lbs it would’ve been a truly great car. GT350 seems like a fantastic car but the image and chintzy interior are not going to appeal to most BMW people.

[@joev3754]

[@gtr1952]

Is the gearbox in the E92 a Getrag? They started using ZF 6M’s sometime but not sure when. The BMW US market 6M also had an OD 6th gear, the euro spec was 1:1 and gears spaced accordingly to utilize the power delivery. The Mustang uses the Tremec 6M with an OD 6th, as does Camaro and Cadillac.

[@tekyguy]

I think the GT350 is very progressive in how it looses traction. On track it’s so good at the limit and lose! It begs for more throttle on oversteer actually which is very surprising. Your pace was much quicker in the GT350 and the smiles were many more. By the way on track the GT350 really shrinks around you.

i found it funny how the E92 M3 is way ahead of its time and still better and more enjoyable than most modern performance cars and most horsepower wasters.

I drove a friends e92 m3 6spd for a few months and did not like the shifter. I ended up buying a BMW 1M which has a better shifter but still not as good as ITR/S2000. I like smaller cars for tossing around. I have to say Gt350 has better seats and brakes vs e90/e92 m3. Have a quick look on forums on how many m3/m4 owners have to upgrade to BBK for any track use.

[@davidmitchell5638]

So get an M3 for $20k, stroke it or supercharge it plus better suspension and brakes= Heaven! I love GT350 engine but the build quality is not there yet.

[@augustortiz]

David Mitchell an enlightened comment.

[@JacesOwnWorld]

David Mitchell after owning an E92 M3, I’ll say your comment is dead wrong. Firstly, the E92’s interior is not great and the gt350 feels just as good. Secondly, the E92 will be highly unreliable with a striker kit, will require a LIT of maintenance, and still won’t be as good. Maintenance nightmare if you plan on driving the E92 hard. GT350 will be great for years to come, as it’s built almost perfect from the factory.

[@robertace906]

Jace MK7 I am 100% with you. Same here I’ve owned an e46, e92, just recently an f80 and after driving a gt350 I instantly made the switch. For him to buy an e92 for 20k there will surely be almost 100k miles on it couple that with the constant headaches of that e92 in maintenance and it would just be a nightmare. I don’t think he’s had a chance to really drive a gt350. Honestly would buy an e92 again but only as a second car after the Shelby.

Way more issues with the E92 on top of the horrific gas mileage as a stock small displacement V8. Just not my cup of tea. Loved the E46 M3 and I don’t have it anymore due to crashing it hitting black ice. It’s my favorite //M car for sure. My next car once I’m out of Nursing school, is going to be a GT350. Probably will supercharge it, but even from the factory, it’s an amazing car.

Savagegeese did a roadcourse comparison between a regular GT with minor suspension tweaks and a e92 m3. The mustang was faster. A Shelby gt350 is miles better than a regular mustang and definitely better than an e92. I used to think like everyone else in these comments but the whole euro car is better era is slowly coming to an end. This gt350 and 1le camaro family outpaces and outdoes bmw for a cheaper price and no they don’t “feel” cheaper even though they are. The motor in the gt350 is ferrari-ish and the suspension is much better than an m3. The zl1 1le for 65k gets you such low Nürburgring lap times. You have to drive them to feel it. Most of the people in the comments are just bmw fan boys that never really get the chance to appreciate the new age American Muscle.

Great video! I love both of these. I do have a question that I think you can answer. Right now for a weekend car I have an AP1 Honda S2000. It's a great car, but I don't love it's lack of torque and twitchyness at the limit.i.e. you're fine and then boom, the back tires break loose. I'm considering selling it and getting am E90/92 M3. Since you've owned both can you speak to the difference in driving experience between the two? Thanks!

[@nemesisxxprime]

Might I suggest, a lotus elige? I went from an s2k to a supercharged elise as my weekend car. If you're looking for a pure drivers car I'd give it a test drive

[@jonathanrobinson592]

@@nemesisxxprime Thanks for the reply. I know the s2k is a great car but I find myself wanting more. Newbie question. I don't know much about a Lotus Elise. Are they typically supercharged or was that aftermarket?

[@nemesisxxprime]

Jonathan Robinson there are both NA and supercharged from factory options. They use Toyota Celtica engines and are pretty bulletproof. The NA by itself is quick enough, the supercharger just gives it more daily driving low end torque power really. They rev high, have that "vtec " sort of surge when they come on cam at around 4-5k rpm but mainly, the cars handling feel will make the s2k feel numb in comparison. And I love the s2k. Also they're convertible lol

[@jonathanrobinson592]

@@nemesisxxprime Thanks! My wife says a convertible is a must. I was considering 1. Keeping the s2000 2. A porsche 911 or 2. BMW m3. I didn't think much about other options. What I don't like about the s2k is it's lack of torque and how it just feels slow unless you drive it super hard and then when you do drive it super hard but go too far you loose the back end. Spinning out is terrifying.

[@EatSleepDrive]

In some ways they're sort of similar. Both high reving, but obviously the v8 in the M3 makes more power, it is a heavier car though. Regardless, the M3 is faster, but if you're frustrated with lack of torque the E90 M3 might not be great for you. It's more of a revver like the S2k than a car with low end torque. Once again, the M3 will have more power everywhere and faster so it all depends what you're going for. The handling on the M3 is way more progressive than the M3 so i doesn't snap like the s2k. Since it sounds like you have a daily and you're looking for more of a toy weekend car, I like the suggestion that Raging had about an Exige/Elise. Check some of my older videos, I went from an S2k to a Lotus Elise and loved it. Especially as a toy car. The s2k is more livable on a daily basis, but if you have a daily driver the Lotus is hard to beat. Even the Elise will be faster than the S2k stock. The Exige is bonkers with the supercharger and you can find factory supercharged Elise's as well(albeit a bit rarer). They also have Toyota engines so they're surprisingly reliable.

[@TornikeJashia]

How does this M3 compare to E92 335xi N54 on the engine side? Afaik the N54 gets easily modified to surpass the M3 V8 power and the xdrive version also has the LSD.

[@fastboatster]

Xdrive doesn't have an lsd, but you can add an aftermarket one.

[@EatSleepDrive]

Sure you can tune a N54 to higher power levels than the M3. It just depends what you want to use the car for. If you have any intentions of taking it to the track the N54 struggles greatly with cooling. The M3 is more motorsports grade, and this isn't even considering all the other changes in the suspension and steering they made from the 335i to the M3. 335i is great for the street, the M3 is better for track duty.

Completely different. These to handle great, but they are nothing compared to a mid engine Porsche. The 718 handles amazing and is the right size. The problem is the engine has 0 character. These two ooze character from the engine department. They're more exciting while the Cayman is more serious. They're all amazing, but the GT350 and M3 have way more soul.

[@gray7863]

Thanks for the input and I think that the flat six gives the Cayman so much more personality vs the 4 cyl turbo's. I thought about the GT 350 when they came out as they were close in price if you ordered one and did not go crazy adding on a bunch of expensive options. As I did not need a car with a back seat that kind of sealed the deal for me.

Conclusion : BMW will always be 10 years ahead of Ford in every aspect. Anybody that appreciates build quality knows this already. What a rediculois comparison.

Is the gearbox in the E92 a Getrag? They started using ZF 6M’s sometime but not sure when. The BMW US market 6M also had an OD 6th gear, the euro spec was 1:1 and gears spaced accordingly to utilize the power delivery. The Mustang uses the Tremec 6M with an OD 6th, as does Camaro and Cadillac.
