Less is More: Arkham Performance BMW E36 M3 // Nürburgring

[@big-R]

Why is this more fun to watch than any new stuff with 500+ hp.

[@MrAntnoden]

Epic car!!!

[@sjoerdbonte213]

All that mathers is horsepower these days…

[@DullBoyJack]

More dynamic, more engaging, more fun. New cars are so fast they can make the speed look boring!

[@lenn4272]

Cuz analog dash ofc

[@Ahheck01]

We could actually afford this one.

[@328irossi]

Proper car , proper mods and no stupid cameras being held, this is how it should be 👌🏻

[@AudiRS3Daniel]

That was mental! staying ahead of the M2 with a manual was exciting to watch!

[@naruto6063]

MISHA yall! hehehe

[@Racerman27410]

This is exactly why i watch this channel.... a great driver doing what he does best... wringing every drop of performance from every car he drives! That looked like a ton of fun!!!!!!

[@josefinkjellsson7051]

Couldn’t agree more 😊

[@ErnestoLezard]

Lolz great driver! Behave, he makes videos, he doesn't drive great

[@thespeedlife]

He also raced and won a gt4 nurb race? ​@@ErnestoLezard

[@M3fahrer]

I love the format now with car intro, lap, and then thoughts. When the cars are modded I do wish you’d spend a few more minutes hearing about all the specific upgrades. Coming from the states I love seeing the style and approach the Ring cars take to track modifications.

[@ninja_slothsracer]

well said

[@TheCoverVerse]

We could actually see that when you got the hang of it you were unstoppable! What a great round!

[@mgcharoudin]

ABSOLUTE RIOT

[@Robert_Langer]

Could listen to these all day... and as per usual with E36 content, now I miss my old E36 Race car all over again 😂

[@gouldnj]

I owned one of these when I lived in Spain. Drove it all over the continent. Ring, autobahn, IT Riviera, Switzerland and more. I miss that car.

[@CM-tc6pp]

Wow! looks like a perfect setup for this track. Watching this is way more enjoyable than your previous m2/m4 drives. It just seems so stable and sounds like a proper little racecar that you can wring out to its limits. This car is so good!

[@givenmanamela9602]

Old school cars are just something else man 🙌 the rawness is unmatched 🔥

[@thomascloete4713]

Had a friend who passed away before his time his car was also an E36 even has his own KZbin channel...life's a journey

[@kcdesignconcepts5216]

This is exactly why I love my E36. When I go out on the track I am driving the car. Not the other way around. This is from the long gone days of what ( the ultimate driving machine) used to meen.

[@MAG-Crew]

Thats Sound of e36 M3 is pure Gold. Amazing car

[@andrewlewis5251]

The further away Misha got, the more the M2 behind him lagged, he was receiving a huge boost following Misha line.

[@TranceFur]

Absolutely love the smooth, whistly tone of the S50B32. Such a unique sound

[@evanstewartryker3505]

Sounds so fecking good. Also you can tell the suspension upgrade made an absolute massive improvement

[@SimtecV]

The best sound!! This E36 is very good

[@ajl0426]

Tell the car's owner to get a stapler that would be used to staple papers together and open it up as if you would want to staple paper to a board and staple the headliner up to the fiberboard. Best option until he can pull the seats and the cage.

[@honda4185]

This is how all new M cars should sound.. REAL sounds of driving an M car!! 💯👍 WHAT a lap Misha... well done and damn good drivning..and could see the owner smile from time to time😀

[@papapetad]

It was nice to have a reference in the rear cam. The E36 definitely looks sticky and these motors sound good.

[@rickjames6867]

Car sounds terrific. Low traffic on this one. Got to open her up real good. ☮️💙

[@anthonysaquinoworld839]

This is why my e36 m3 is still in my garage 💯❤️❤️❤️

[@rideepicdriveepic]

E36 is the king of the ring 👑

[@UmarTheGreat10]

no it's not...

[@rideepicdriveepic]

@@UmarTheGreat10 Step 1: Get out the basement Step 2: Go to the Nürburgring Step 3: Observe that the most cars you'll see there are modified BMW E36's Step 4: Stop taking comments on KZbin so seriously.

[@UmarTheGreat10]

@@rideepicdriveepic My, aren't we witty. If you see many modified E36s it's because they're a great affordable platform when properly set up. Far from the king though. In most of Misha's videos he's passing them left and right because they're usually pretty slow (though a blast to drive). So by king what do you mean? Far from the quickest, and there are more enjoyable visceral cars out there as well (notice how Misha always has the most fun in old school VTEC Honda builds)

[@rideepicdriveepic]

@@UmarTheGreat10 ....erm yeah. Sure. I suggest you actually go there and see for yourself instead of forming your opinion based on the stuff you watch on youtube.

[@UmarTheGreat10]

@@rideepicdriveepic Right, because all the Nurburgring videos don't portray reality and in real life it's totally different where E36 are gapping every car. Get real. Look I own a built e92 so have nothing against BMW but it's delusional to call any BMW the king of the Nurburgring. I'd argue something like Porsche GT3 cars and the like

[@jritechnology]

Shorter 3rd gear would own the ring even more. Great car, great lap....had me excited towards the second half of the lap with that M2 on his butt....nicely done.

[@stevebmw69]

Older cars the best to watch 👍

[@josefinkjellsson7051]

I live for videos like this. Mischa my brother, you are a beast in that E36, thx for the video 🙏🏻 And happy Easter 🐣😊

[@JON3Z]

Awesome car, and great lap, especially the end. Misha seemed so fulfilled after driving the car, and you could see the owner enjoyed it aswel! He definitely appreciated the compliments to the car 😄 And what the heck did that dude at the very end say 😂😂

[@tylerpalmer8973]

Nothing like the older cars to put a smile on your face. Wish my E90 revved the way that E36 does. Extra 1000rpm to play with, and it sounds awesome.

[@davidsmall7676]

E36 is incredible! Great lap 🎉🎉

[@Totor14400.]

your thoughts was always very interesting and pleasant to see, thank you very much misha. Big pleasure to watch all your videos :)

[@rmoore6471]

Good old E36 M3.. King of the tracks cars... I would love to see one boosted on this track..

[@MasterJ209]

sitting in my e36 watching this vid made me very happy 😁

[@hopebear06]

Fun to watch that drive. Those missed gears! The poor guy in the white car must have thought you were intentionally slowing down then taking off just to mess with him.

[@pistonfury]

One of my favorite drivers you are! I love your left foot braking.

[@dominiquehuot-fp3dd]

Quand tu vois des baquets Corbeau. Tu sais que t'es pas dans un Jacky tuning mais dans une machine à déchiqueter de la gomme.

[@SteveShawJr]

the biggest complement a driver could get " Its nice to see someone drive it properly " awesome drive Misha

[@user-jl7hx1zz6d]

Misha u looked like u were having fun. Beautiful lap and definitely sometimes less is more!

[@2sipsMax]

I love the sound of the engine, sounds like a race car.

[@cloudlight9784]

This one was really fun to watch!

[@RDEnduro]

A nicer sound than that really loud Porsche Cayman you had on imo. This car was great excellent performance and it didnt really seem so ruff in there on you, good suspension nice seats, the steering wheel is exactly what id want too

[@elcasho]

e36 talking to the newer BMWs "get out of my way kids, grandkids and great grandkids!"

[@farkinarkin5099]

4:48 ... heck I have trouble with 2nd gear just commuting. :-) What an amazing lap. The sound alone is worth it, but watching a skilled driver get that much out of a relatively stock car is amazing. Thanks.

[@mostafa3rs]

This was what I call a rockstar lap, good going Misha!

[@RasoulMojtahedzadeh]

Wow! What a race car, what a great setup! 👏👏👏

[@Will_M600]

Always makes me smile when the owner seems like a nice bloke

[@Worthers199]

Wow what a lap. That car holds some serious corner speed. Unlucky with the 2nd gear but wow.

[@karmanclementli]

Man!!!! That engine sound so amazing!!

[@MrAntnoden]

Absolutely monumental!!! Fantastic!!!!

[@CR-ju9th]

it seems that Misha has outgrown this car.. he is an excellent driver. very nice lap bro💪🏼💪🏼

[@big-R]

Cornering speeds were visibly very fast

[@SingleSpeed427]

WHOO!!! Mischa pushing HARD in this one. That M2 or whatever was behind him got him going. FUN lap!!

[@AZAR44]

One of the best Car of 20th century 😍🫶

[@waylinstone8155]

Gave that m2 a hiding 4th gear has alot of power

[@jethrox827]

Nice track car, nice camera setup 👍

[@Namprikong]

I look forward to your videos every midnight. Thank you for sharing your experience.

[@peterthemaniac]

looks like a fun tracktool!

[@ryanabrahams6446]

Love the car! Misha you are an inspiration once again, thanks to you I now have a goal to sell my z4 coupe, buy a Cayman/911 S and hopefully meet you later in the year

[@Porkycheun]

Now that's a proper car! 😍😍

[@Buzzweld]

Proper video and enthusiast. Loved the video. All before BMW went turbo.

[@UgurTekcan]

Breathtaking lap 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@exajoules]

i could see Misha had so much fun drving such a honest car, love those inline 6 and light old cars, bussin!

[@robertskeen1427]

Brilliant

[@UnrelatedNonsense]

Hearing tires rub is like nails on a chalkboard. It’s also Incredibly dangerous. Just raise the car

[@ArkhamPerformance]

We did advise it be higher but version 2.0 will have e46 rear arches grafted on & 10mm wider front wings 👍🏻

[@raduorban]

Perfect ! As a b32 owner.... oil was getting on the hot side. Might want to upgrade the cooler. Otherwise nothing to comment 😅

[@JerainJezza]

130°C no probem for S50 with good oil:D I drove a full trackday in my old S50B30 with a stuck oil thermostat at mostly 150°C without a problem, car still drives today without overhaul...

[@RealAnimeHours]

As the old adage goes, paraphrased, it's more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow.

[@duangc3280]

E36 M3 is not slow, anime boy. Keep hating, stick to cartoons.🤡

[@loredanatafuro7826]

The gears on that 5 speed are sooo long. Long live NA power

[@friendlybucket7268]

misha you said what i was thinking about, the car revs just way to nice! i could see it handles really controllable not to much understeer oversteer just perfect, it revs high and quite good, maybe just a PINCH of power but well on the other hand it doesnt need it, somehow the mondern bmw behind you couldnt overtake you, he was catching up when u messed up your breaking in the slowest corner (Wehrseifen). i expected he will catch up and overtake you on the uphill section, kesselchen. he didnt :o) great driving!

[@TeodorIacob-xq6iz]

Happy to see Misha started using fluent gears out of the corners, no more red line exits. GT4 is doing you good! Keep up!

[@nelsonnunes7291]

Real car to a real driver

[@leored79]

Looks planted and very well damped. Wonder what rollbars and links he was using?

[@scoobysean555]

Perfectio ❤

[@superbrit3845]

Very sorted package, suspension and brakes spot on and despite probably having less than 300bhp in reality due to the age of the engine it performed exceptionally well and looked fantastic fun to drive flat out.

[@UnrelatedNonsense]

Not sure if I would say completely sorted. Tires re rubbing like crazy

[@Xi4Xi]

Wow! ❤

[@Murphy252000]

As usual, great going misha, props from Ireland

[@12345678939218]

This is more exciting and fun to watch than many cars with twice the power. I already missed cars like this on the channel. thanks.

[@cauri_virtual_wraps]

Loved the end.

[@yvangascogne]

Great car, smooth driving !

[@FlightSimXtreem]

This is what I want to see more. Man o man Misha what is this good stuff.

[@Ramsi-Berlin]

It sounds so nice ❣️👌🏼😊

[@adrianproniewicz1987]

In older cars fwd or rwd ( manuals ) with 300hp for example, you need a skill, in 500 hp+ cars with quatro and automatic you only go full throttle. ITS fun too. :)

[@Edison73100]

2 cool, proper lap.

[@Armalyte78]

Great sound!

[@grastmast]

Great car and time

[@fernandorubio972]

Se siente la velocidad, la emoción real... no las lavadoras hormonadas de la actualidad. Una vuelta perfecta

[@dokterkarel]

I did not hear the tires squeal. These seem to be very grippy

[@micheltebraake7915]

Old-skool, heerlijk.

[@stasisthebest]

Those tyres really work their magic

[@MrLince-hr4of]

i look abound 40% to the front cam, 10% speed and people reaction and 50% rear cam 🤣

[@R19Robbin]

Gotta love an E36 🚀🚀

[@hondaboy_jim2514]

Just saying to myself, Mischa can drive like a pro! Wow this was epic! They fast car behind you (think bmw) tried but failed.

[@dennisk415]

My daily dose of adrenaline 😊

[@MarloC137]

Thats why the 80's cars were the best, minimum weight, little or no assitance, just the most fun for your engine size. They were deadly tho, better not crash.

[@Watts378]

Superb 👌

[@denneberg]

Nostalgic

[@Aliens_Gonna_Get_Ya]

Awesome!!! 👊👊👊💥💥💥

[@sergeykondakov2645]

Миха ТОПЧИК!

[@michielheylighen6820]

Great lap. Love e36 ❤

[@RDSAlphard]

I'm surprised by the torque's availability at 4000rpm! But then it is 3.2L afterall.

[@tothemax0729]

This is usable power

[@MrMrHelix]

I'm a great fan of both of you wearing helmets, your driving becomes much more dedicated when there's no talking BTG 🙏 I just compared my own best lap in a rented Renault Megane with yours side by side and we're very close 👍
