That one year passed by so quickly!

[@Peanutdenver]

Three things that really stuck out to me when I went from my F82 M4C to my G82 M4C was steering, power and its delivery and what a big step up BMW had done with the interior. I always loved the look of the controversial front end, call me crazy and I'm glad to see another G8X owner. Btw nice vid per usual.

I have a 2022 M4 manual. I took delivery 10 months ago today. My wait was 345 days, 20 days short of a full year. My car is Isle of Man Green with Tartufo brown full leather interior. I have al most 6000 miles now and have had not trouble at all except for a tire cut in in the sidewall o my right rear, which looked suspiciously like vandalism as there was no other damage to the tire, the wheel, or the fender. I traded in a 2015 F82 M4 manual, a car I loved for over 7 years. That said, I live my G82 even more. I find it much easier to drive as it is much smoother starting off from a stop and shifting gears, particularly from 1st to 2nd. I believe that this is partly a result on changes in the torque curve from the S55 to the S58 engine and possibly changes in the clutch linings. I really love the interior. That Tartufo brown full leather makes the car feel even more expensive than it is, like a luxury GT. I did not order the carbon fiber seats. I tried them at in a car at the dealer before I ordered mine and found the awkward getting in and out of the car. I'm in my 70's and not getting more nimble at my age. I really like the looks of My G82. I didn't like the front end when I saw the first photos in Car and Driver, but when I first saw one in person, I really came to like it. I saw a car in the showroom thin in Isle of Man Green and immediately decided that if I was going to get one, that would be the color. My ordered the moonroof so I don't have the carbon fiber roof, and did not order the Shadowline package. My roof, mirror caps, and lip spoiler are body color and my exhaust tips are chrome. The bi-color 825M wheels really pop. Perfect! Overall, I find the G82 much improve over the F82. If I had to order again I wouldn't change a thing. I'm loving it!!!

[@TheDailyDriven]

I definitely appreciate your Insight and I know others are reading this and feeding off of it. The tartufo brown leather interior definitely makes it a more luxurious look and feel to it. I know you almost waited a year, but I know the weight was worth it! Thank you for watching the video.

[@jamesbondeson669]

@@TheDailyDriven The wait sucked. 😞 At least I still had my F82 then, which, of course, was my trade-in. And, as I said, my G82 is a whole lot better. 🙂 That is certainly not to say the the F82 was bad. It was a great car.

[@micraw714]

Thanks for the feedback on shifting, good to know it's an improvement! I never got along with the clutch in my old F80, the take off in first never seemed smooth and often had a judder. Same thing with my current M2 sometimes. I was reluctant to go MT if I get a G80 but if it's better than the previous gen, I might go that route after all 😁

[@all4bspinnin311]

Im a larger frame person and at the BMW performance driving center I was able to drive the G82 rwd on the track. I can say, the track seats are worth every penny! I was super worried i wouldnt fit but it I dropped right in. Plus if youre in the back you can tickle the driver. :P Also, most people have no idea of the capability of the G8x chassis. It handles amazing, the traction control algorithm is one of the best in business. Its an absolute monster on track and has plenty of power even in stock form. Driving that car was one of the best experiences ive ever had. Thrashing a 100k car with carbon ceramic brakes was a memory i'll hold onto forever.

[@GrandTheftAutoFans1]

Can I just ask how do you justify having a race car that has 3 extra seats and 2 doors in the back that puts extra weight? I mean with that money you can get something more race focused while buying a normal daily camry you can use practically. Not only will you get more performance but also less concerns driving your car daily and parking it anywhere you like. Thoughts?

[@juannyboi]

Congrats on your 1 year ownership🎉 beautiful, I have only had my Violet Blue for about 2 months, I went X drive and I actually like the staggered wheel look, so just did M performance HAS suspension, 10 and 14 mm spacers and I have kept the stock wheels...love them. So nice that these cars become a part of you and can represent each ones style. Awesome to see how each person does their own things🙌🏼

[@drewgzz]

The break squeak is normal for performance cars. I got the same with my GTR

[@aelganzo1]

My M3 had excessive noise from the brakes (realizing that all M cars have some squeaky brakes) but after one track day it was gone. You really have to brake hard and it will go away. A track day will do it but you just need to take it to a free road and brake hard and it should be squeak free for awhile.

[@oneiljunior9837]

The squeaks only goes away after the pads and rotors gets hot.

[@BertrandDussert]

Just picked up my 2024 G80 manual last week and absolutely love it. Great to be back into a manual M3 daily after running an M5C for a few years since my F80C manual. On the squealing brakes, they’re just high performance pads. All it takes is a couple of high speed applications to quiet them for a while. Just speed up to 80+ and roll into the brakes moderately hard down to 30 mph. That will clear up the squealing for a while.

[@TheDailyDriven]

Congratulations on the Manual M3. This will be the last Manual M3 unfortunately so definitely enjoy it! I might have another solution in a future video with the brakes. Especially the horrible brake dust.

[@BertrandDussert]

@@TheDailyDriven last manual? 😢 Now I want to buy a couple extra spare cars and store them! 🤣 Looking forward to hearing what you’re thinking on the dust. Ceramic coating helped a bit on my M5 but steel M brakes generate prodigious amounts of brake dust!

I just took delivery of my 23 Twilight Purple M3 Competition xDrive a month ago after a 13 month wait. It is an absolute beast. Just had my run in service done, so I can't wait to get on it! I've had several BMWs Audis, and Lexus models, but the G80 is just another level. Definitely agree with you on the rear calipers. They should have put 4 pot rears. Agree about the exhaust tone, but a midpipe and exhaust flap controller completely solves that. Wheels are subjective. Of course you buy a car and it comes with stock wheels, but BMW M wheels are pretty great for stock. I'd love to lower my car, but the roads where I live are atrocious, so having the front clearance it has is beneficial.

Great video honestly. I will be ordering a 2025 g80. Especially about the rotor rust. I have that same issue on my x3m although it isn't that bad at least in my experience. Usually i drive it a little after the wash to dry the water off to not have that issue. just maybe a slow cruise down the street or parking lot. I want the carbon ceramics on my g80, but I can't bite that bullet of almost 10k honestly. I can always upgrade the rotors and brakes later for way cheaper. I have seen plenty of people do it on their g80 now. I upgraded my brake pads to isweeps because of the brake dust. They cut down the brake dust some. You could also ceramic coat the wheels and brake calipers and it helps as well. I will be doing that on my g80. Thanks for the video. Great spec.

[@kierankelleher]

The squealing brakes is annoying for sure. There is a page in the manual with a remedy for “functional noises”. Basically brake hard (not emergency ABS engagement) from 60 to 15mph about 3 or 4 times to clear the glaze on the brakes and that should stop squealing for about a week.

[@TheDailyDriven]

Good to know! I'm sure others would appreciate this info.

[@samthai818]

Will be ordering one towards the end of the year after my new house is built. I was an original owner of an E90 M3 that was totaled last year by an idiot with no insurance running a red light. I wanted to keep that S65 engine forever, it was a manual and it was just as tight as the day it was delivered, even after 14 years at 110K miles. The most reliable BMW ever, with original Bearings. I had two carseats in the back for the first 4 years and a double side by side stroller in the trunk. It was my daily driver and the absolute best choice to compliment an SUV.

[@thomaslomanno8427]

This car is definetly on my bucket list for the future. I'm very happy with my e90 atm. I am a little worried about prices on this car becoming impractical due to it being the last non-hibrid manual m car... I think it's still an attainable goal. Love the vid!!

[@oneiljunior9837]

The brakes make that squealing noise because the pads are asbestos and metallic. They are performance pads that allows the car to stop quicker especially when you take them on the track. If you don’t like the sound or are embarrassed when driving in public, just change them to regular asbestos pads.

I'm torn on the M2 vs M3. What made you choose the M3? (I have kids, although I've been making it work for the past several years with my F22 230i)

[@TheDailyDriven]

To me, I've always admired the four-door M3 as compared to any 2 door M model. I think the visual Aesthetics look better in my opinion. One major factor that helped me solidify the decision was knowing that at the time My wife and I wanted kids. So having 4 doors was a bit more practical.

Love my G80 M3Cx. You mentioned the brake dust and squeal, another -con- is cleaning the stock wheels as a result of those issues. They're beautiful wheels but that is a lot of work every 2 weeks to keep clean with all those spokes, switched to ceramic pads to resolve.

What ceramic pads? Did it really resolve it?

@@fzr1000981 I went with iSweep1500. Squeal is gone and dust is much much less, about same as stock performance. One issue though is the pads 'clunk' on some bumps which is common to most aftermarket pads probably since they don't have the weights on them like stocks do.

I can’t believe it’s been a year already considering we got ours at the same time. Same boat and truck and all! For me, because I work from home I’ve only put 2800 miles on the car which is a little crazy. I came from a low mile f80 comp and had an m2 cs in between. I love the looks of the car, the technology, the platform/motor, etc. however, I miss the rawer feeling of both the f80 comp and m2 cs. I don’t mind the zf8, I think this motor was tailor made for it. The only do over for me would be possibly ccbs and an individual color. Mines a keeper unless the lci is worth it but I plan to absolutely keep a g80. It’s the last ICE generation.

[@aw614]

I've joked with a friend that his M240i's caliper looks better than the new rear caliper on the newer cars. He put himself on the new M2 allocation list at his dealer so I am looking forward to checking out since he's probably going to do some autocrosses in it. My guess on the brake dust and noise is BMW "could" be using a compound that should the owner decide to take it to a track day, they "should" hold up. Of course a more experienced driver may overheat them, etc. But I think given the sporting nature of an M3/M4, you'll have to live with the brake dust on the OEM pads. I can deal with brake noises b/c racecar noises lol, but the dust is the worst. One option would be to find a less dusty pad and sacrifice of overall brake performance (which might be negligible on the street), but would require testing several brands of brake pads out to see what works...or getting the carbon ceramics lol

[@TheDailyDriven]

Yeah those rear calipers are definitely something very interesting to not look at lol. Yeah that M2 is going to be epic on the autocross track. Yeah I've heard of less duster pads and I'll have to look into them in the future. Getting the carbon ceramics are a far distant option lol. They are very very costly after the fact.

Glad you touched on the rattle, it drove me nuts in my f80. Coming from a different viewpoint, I always tune my cars to the max. Now I have a 340 manual with xdrive that makes over 700awhp but the cali traffic really sucks, I only drive it once in a while. The new G80, like you said looks great lowered on a decent set of wheels. To me, the biggest pro of the g80 is the interior with bucket seats and the fact that a downpipe and a tune will make more power than what took me countless mods on my 340

[@darksideemt]

I will say seeing your car and exactly how you have it is the first new M3 I have said "damn that looks good!" The nice emerald green color is the only other color I can get past the nose on them. Even if I could afford one I personally think I'd go for an M340 but seeing your spec is amazing.

The way I feel about the G8x is that they are just going for what sells and away from their roots. They made the ride more subdued, more luxury, and less raw. No dct, got 8 speed torque converter auto for more smoothness and luxury, interior is better, car is pretty heavy, has awd too now. That's not what m3 used to be, but it's what sells these days. F80 is even more raw experience than the G8x, let alone the older generations. Not to say it's not a great car, but it certainly is far from what the original m3 was. I'd definitely say your F80 looked better

Bro, I agree. The F is badass and the G is too bloated. I saw one and thought it was a mid size Lexus.

[@raptordc5]

Looks like my option is to build my comp x now days. Hard to find colorways I want.

[@TheDailyDriven]

Yes that would be a good option. Only downside is the wait time.

[@FFFFFfffjjkkc]

Nice Bro me too i bought mine exact at same time 😎👌 Best Car i've ever had

what's the name of the wheels ?

Thank you 🤛🏻

Imo this video is incredibly biased towards the G8X. When one buys an M3, the persuit of driving dynamics is paramount and salient. The long standing DNA of the M3 has diminished with the G8X generation. Look to an M5 if your needs requires more creature comforts, you're looking at the wrong product offering.

[@joshuawi99]

Exactly that’s the point mate! I don’t buy an M2/3/4 for being a daily driver. The M5 and up does this very well.

[@samiwasti8400]

You’ve never driven one and it shows

[@mammothkiwi]

Love my G80 Comp X. I think with a full carbon package, reflector deletes and a GT style grille it's really good looking. On power I saw that someone recently dynoed the Comp and it put down 502 WHP which is nutes. Also agree on the M day. Maybe I'll see you in Austin this year?

[@TheDailyDriven]

Yeah all those changes make a big difference. The only time I'll be in Austin this year is to visit the friends. Unfortunately no car related activities

[@rengietorres9482]

I only got 4 months with my g80 and put 3300 miles on it love this thing 🤣

[@TheDailyDriven]

Clearly shows how much you love it 🤝🏻🤛🏻

[@speeddemonRS3]

Love the car and that color, but the exhaust note doesn't do anything for me!!

[@SSalach]

brake dust /squeeking = change brakd pads to ECB Yellows and u good.

[@TheDailyDriven]

I'll definitely look into upgrading the brake pads

[@362chop]

What bothers me is the length/width increase but most of all the weight. Nice clip & skills. BTW Toronto Red was a fine choice.

[@TheDailyDriven]

It's actually BMW individual imola red

[@362chop]

@@TheDailyDriven I'm currently in a 2020 "Heritage" and guess what, Imola Red. Best red on the planet.

[@jgaines3200]

I'm also a big advocate of learning the car before you abuse it....especially after I spun out my G87 m2 making a left hand turn at a traffic light and hopped the median :(. Wish it didn't take that happening to respect it but it was my first real "performance car". My prior car was a GV70 with a JB4 that made close to 500 HP and 500 Torque but it was all wheel drive and probably a 1000 pounds heavier so you could stomp the throttle all day and ti would just grip no matter if it was wet or dry..

[@buggyscards]

The car is growing on me. Still am ehhh about the front end. Adro front bumper is the way to go imo. Keep up the vids 👌🏽

[@TheDailyDriven]

Thank you!, I got a few things lined up for the summer. The mods should be rolling in hopefully soon. There's been a lot of delays

[@Keitan97]

3:30 Thank god my vendor’s the best at its Job 👍🏻
