Test Drive Review: 2014 BMW 435i M-Sport, The New Price of Admission

[@SinlowMusic]

My 435i coupe is now at 165,000 miles in 2024 and it still runs like new. Such a beautiful car to look at and fun to drive!!

[@sin.cereytg9691]

I’m about to buy mine tomorrow

[@spencerschofield921]

I just bought this with everything on it. White with the red leather and silver carbon fiber...awesome car to drive and I get a LOT of compliments on the color combination and how this car performs !!

[@davespin9034]

I just bought a 2015 435, has lots of those expensive options you mentioned. Love the looks of the car and it is fun to drive. It also has the M Performance package which includes the exhaust which is more throaty and deep, yet doesn’t increase horsepower oddly enough. Mine didn’t come with the blue M calipers or large 270mm rotors. Still, it’s fun and fast! Previously I had a 2009 335i with the N54 engine. That car went just short of 200,000 miles with very few issues. It’s why I bought another BMW

[@JohnGodwin]

Surprised by this review - every other review states how immaculate and well presented the finish is. Dated, for sure, but the materials in the cabin are exceptional. They're soft-touch almost everywhere.

[@RawAutos]

+John Godwin Most of those people haven't owned these cars and know the abuse they'll take. Some of the interior is soft, plenty is not. It's a shit-show of plastic. When you're spending M3 money on a car that isn't an M3, I'd like to see less plastic and bullshit. This isn't a C5 or C6 Corvette, for God's sake.

[@JohnGodwin]

RawAutos I've since taken delivery of a 430 and can confirm that most of the materials present, especially those within fair reach, are all nice soft-touch plastic. The funny thing is, even certain parts of the vehicle that you would realistically never really touch are still high quality plastic.

[@mytwocents9335]

+RawAutos How do you mean spending M3 money on a car that isn't an M3? An M3 costs an extra $30K over this 435i.

[@Ipuffyy]

I own this car and there's hardly any plastic, the center yes everywhere else is soft. The cabin feels great and spacious.

[@Arturo124]

is it me or the volume in this video is very low ?

[@3rd_iimpact]

Low for me too.

[@RawAutos]

daskriege Yeah, sorry. It was louder in post, but it seemed to get lower when I uploaded it to KZbin. In fact, I deleted the first video that I posted because the audio was a decent amount lower. But I was tired of messing with it, so I just uploaded it.

[@Rymek180]

Just purchased mine, thank you for the review!

[@walidzein1]

How reliable is it? have you had any major issues with car?

[@bodrulm1]

The interior in this is awesome. I tested an Audi A5 S line, Mercedes C Class but bought the BMW 430d GC M Sport. The interior to me is much better suited to what this car stands for. It's a GT. It needs to have that sporty touch. The other two felt like they were going for a luxury image, especially the Merc (a bit tacky too), which isn't quite in keeping with a sports trim in my opinion. The simpler internal setup of the BMW is also awesome from a driver's perspective. All the materials are soft touch plastic. High quality fit and finish.

[@DoktrDub]

3:54 - “You can fit two people in the back” *proceeds to show what looks like a couple of body bags in the trunk* Jokes aside, this is an awesome car

[@AutomotiveTherapy]

Today in 2018, you can get a used fully spec for $25,000, now that's what i'm talking about

[@awesomea3419]

What a fantastic car! The 435i BMW is one of a kind. Turbo charged sports brilliance at a cost of a price.

[@EddieK0027]

If you want Bluetooth Audio Streaming capability you don't need to get the Technology Package ($3150), you can just get Navigation instead ($2150), because the only difference is getting a HUD projection for another $1k additional. You have to understand that you can't compare economy cars with a BMW because it's in a different class of its own, remember you get what you paid for; luxury, safety, and sportiness also you forgot to mention that you don't have to pay for maintenance because that's already included in your payment. BMW puts more money investing in the technology itself rather than the car itself. I find it hilarious that people would lease/buy a BMW, not get the Navigation or DA package and say that they will use their phone as Navigation, first time BMW owners can't see the value, even though Navigation has a multitude of different uses other than maps. I always say go big or go home, you're already looking at a $50k + car and chances are your probably going to go with lease to get the lowest payment and not having the commitment to own it. At the end of the day everybody has their own idea of what luxury, safety, and sportiness means, it's up to the buyer to do their homework before they walk into the dealership, and if the salesmen can find out what your interests are than the car will sell itself, maybe that's why BMW doesn't have commercials against the competitors because they don't need to make fun at the competition. Instead other competition is making fun of BMW because that's what you see so prevalently on the roads and how many accolades and awards have BMW won over the years, so BMW can price their cars however they want, because repeat BMW owners can see the value in it. BMW has created the 320i as an entry level sedan to reach a newer buyer but make it affordable it may lack the aesthetics of the M-Sport but hey it's affordable for a college grad. I'm now going to another tangent, but the funny thing is you have read for this long so now I know you have my attention. Last reason why you should get this car; because you were smart in your decision making when you told your dealer to build your car; you picked Dynamic Handling Package. The Dynamic Handling Package gives the punch to the competitors but with brass knuckles, with DHP the cornering of the car on tight roads you can turn on a dime; you can hit nearly 50 MPH on a turn near 60-70 degrees and feel the 4g lateral force, the results; very little body roll, acute amount of tire screeching, impressive handling because the DHP automatically adjust the suspension for better turning radius, if without the DHP than you would have more tire screeching. You should take that car on the Nurburgring race track or your local race track to test my theory if you don't believe me. Anyways dude Congrats on the car I'm thinking of getting that or the new M4.

[@drdj69]

In Australia we get the M-pack standard in 435i which includes sports steering, adaptive suspension,19inch wheels (no blue M breaks). but we pay $120,000 AUD which is about $112,000 USD :-( but its a great car and i love it. Nice review.

[@easyvivo]

Its really worth the price..... whenever I drive the 2015 BMW 435i coupe, it brings pure enjoyment. I just wish that BMW made an M-coupe version for more headroom and maybe become a classic (collector). The inline 6 twin turbo together with taut handling, makes driving fun when maneuvering the mountain roads.

[@robertw.1499]

Will be taking delivery of the 435d Grand Coupe in August. Very good, objective report. well done buddy :-)

[@senorgato70]

Just took delivery of my 435i Gran Coupe M-Sport. Great price. Great interior (anthracite wood trim not that hexagonal aluminum). Amazing engine (last car had a 4.2L V-8) and transmission. Yes, the steering takes some getting used to as if it was pretty disconnected from the car. But the car is a blast to drive.

[@JackRR15]

How much did you pay for it?

[@j.warrenpadgett8192]

I am a BMW enthusiast (addict I have 3 and just bought a Used 2015 435i Xdrive with M Sport package) I did not like your video becuase as an life long enthusiast it offended me.......becuase I believe you where spot on! LOL. I was going to build and buy a new 2019 and just could not justify the 65K price!! Found 2015 for 22K less with M Sport, Premium, Technology, 19 wheels, and M brakes.....thrilled but you are completely right about the packages.

[@propchef]

The bit about pricing is just a bit misleading. I just bought a 2015 335i M-Line M-Sport package WITH Nav, bt streaming, backup camera, same Estoril color, adaptive suspension. I DID NOT get LED lights (lol), active cruise, and a half dozen other options that are really fluff. After some haggling (no one pays MSRP), $53k out the door. It's all about knowing the options and packages. Steering feel? Well, it isn't a sports car, but it is a very sporty and comfortable daily driver that is pretty damn quick and fun to drive. Find another car in the same price range that can compare. It's tough. Besides, I have an M3 in the same color when I feel a hooligan coming on.

[@RawAutos]

Well you're forgetting the fact that the 335i, your car, is $2,250 cheaper base to base after destination. So you buying your car at 53,xxx out the door would equal about 55-56,xxx OTD on the 435. So in total, your car is actually about as much as this car was. You didn't get LEDs because they aren't an option on the 3-Series. You haggled, which is great. I wouldn't recommend anyone paying sticker. So that being said, your comment about price is not really ranking everything on a level playing field. One costs more base, there's an option on this tester that isn't offered on yours, and you haggled the price down. What was the original price on the sticker? You should have added that in to make your point a little more understandable and valid.

[@Jordan-bf1ld]

harooni22 Is that the out of door price including tax? or is it before tax? I am trying to get an 435i m sport with the same exact option, I want to have a sense of what to aim for. Thanks

[@Jordan-bf1ld]

harooni22 MSRP$56000 to $51k out of the door... Wow, thats an amazing deal! Did you have to trade anything in?

[@Jordan-bf1ld]

harooni22 That is still a pretty sweet deal. I will try my best to see if I can get something similar to that. Thanks for you help!

[@savanpanchal6929]

Hey Propchef, I got 2013 335xi Sport. It is coming up on 20K miles now and there is lot of front tire usage to the point where I might need to replace them. Any good option for living in Midwest where there is enough snow to tackle everyday?

[@fazer12779]

I choose the 335i over an M3 as it's that good as a daily :)

[@tdoom2421]

You had me a gun nuts...LIKED!

[@ArchieMakuwa]

Thank you for the awesome review...

[@samaraiza]

When Honda Civics come standard with rear cams and multi-media over blue-tooth, I expect luxury brand vehicles to provide at least the same capabilities standard, especially if it's not a car designed for the track.

[@zazerocold]

I have tested this car, it is amazing with the price you can buy vette if I am not mistaken, but I gota tell you the eco mode was amazing if you test it as well.

[@lostholloway]

its humbling to see roads i recognize in a car review

[@RawAutos]

Which roads are you referring to, Tyler Holloway?

[@dimmukad3548]

Good review from Adam Sandler

[@jonnyspeed]

3 years later and they have depreciated over $25k...

[@JackRR15]

That's good!

[@Patrixxist]

If you wish more of the exhaust system, just install the M performance exhaust!

[@BPawn6]

Great car. Beautiful car. For the price, fully optioned, you can get a CPO M4 competition package. Depends on what you need.

[@harlemkiid149]

When it comes to German Cars,either Lease or Buy Certified Pre Owned,unless of course it's a specialty car like a GT3 or M3.

[@newcenturygoldllc9253]

I totally agree. Over $60k or the new 435i is too expensive. I have a 2010 335i fully loaded and I would never trade that in for this car. I like the changes BMW made but, not for $60k - $65k. I would rather wait a couple of years and get a used M4, for around the same money.

[@edwardkline1348]

I grabbed a fully loaded 2015 version with even the carbon fibre package for 52k out the door with extended warranty. who the hell just pays sticker price ? steering feedback is abit low but most everything in the interior is anodized aluminum or soft plastic. exhaust note needs to be louder but is quiet on long trips, I guess they have to please the larger crowd that doesn't want a growly exhaust cruising on the freeway. fit and finish are superb. this car is sooo worth 52k.

[@claus1225]

For those who are interested, M3/4 costs about $170k usd in china and taiwan.

[@claus1225]

***** of course not, it's not like you can afford one.

[@dsdawdawdaw9157]

Roger Lee still to expensive the car after 5 years will worth a ridiculous price plus the interior looks like a honda prelude 2001 lol , this car needs the red interior best looking in red leather

[@wjgreer]

That test car had the aluminum interior trim. When I've seen them that way, they've looked cheap to me too. There's an anthracite wood option now, at no cost, which is a black linear grained wood that I think dresses up the interior without making it seem to "lux-y". Or, for $1000, you can get a slick carbon fiber and alcantara dash treatment, or alternatively a full leather surfaced dash. Any of these options, I bet, would have improved your opinion of the interior. Also, that flat black plastic surrounding the shift lever isn't doing the look any favors. Looks better with a 6-speed. ;)

[@CKDC8]

fully optioned this matches an M4 entry price. Have you driven that one? That would be an interest comparison when you factor in value

[@19PSIWRX]

You forgot another $2k for AWD and $1500 for the M performance power kit, a must have OEM tune that brings the total cost close to $70k. Ridiculousness.

[@BigUriel]

You're better off with an aftermarket remap that'll give you twice as much power as the M power kit for half the price, and why would you deliberately ruin this car with AWD?

[@troika101]

Drove one manual m sport with all that koo bullshit and it had jb4 tuning the car was fantastic felt like power. Once you put the car into sport mode it's an entirely different car I recomend it but it's not a daily

[@fiending]

are you gonna review the 235i

[@chadskyblue1]

Great review josh but that damn pink shit was distracting lol WARDROBE ... Damn not in the budget lmao doing anything with Gumball 2014?

[@RawAutos]

Hey, don't hate on the pink, man. We keep it real ;).

[@xZen0sx]

Am I missing out a lot if I'm missing Dynamic Handling Package? I bought it with M Sport package thinking it comes with M Sport suspension but apparently not for xDrive.... I'm pissed about that! Tried to return the car next day but they wouldn't accept... so I'm stuck with xdrive suspension setup. I'm eventually going to add Dinan's performance suspension kit to improve handling and looks, hoping to get more sportier feeling :/

[@RawAutos]

Honestly, that's not something I could tell you. I've not driven the standard 4-Series cars without the Dynamic Handling Package. However, I can't imagine those cars feeling as good in the twisties as my 435 felt with the package.

[@S9motion]

Estoril Blue Color ? Could you compare this 435i MSport vs the new 340i MSport ?

[@cjmoritz]

P.S. just 10 yrs ago you would get an M3 for what there asking for this, CRAZY!!!

[@MariusVerbavicius]

Bullshit... 10 years ago E46 costed 330d 45-50k euros. So its even cheaper now looking at ecomony scale.

[@jamespn100]

You know this car is double the price in Australia??? Still worth it- drives like a dream

[@kevork567]

You could go without the music. It's louder than how your talking. The volume of the video is a bit low as well. If you're going to put in music put something that helps the audience get excited to watch the video like house music for example something upbeat. That music starting from 1.24 is so depressing I feel like I'm going to a funeral. I do think you talked about pricing a bit much even with the packages. It is good to know and informative but give us more feedback of the car. This isn't a bad video but I have seen better reviews.

[@jessejames1854]

Have a 435i xdrive grand coupe. Researched delivery in Europe which while you may save 7% it is not what it is cracked up to be. Not the fault of BMW except if they are a day or two off on delivery. If they are all plans are out the window. If you stay in Germany you might break even. Italy and Austria have to many rules and costs (road) that take time. As it is it took 2 months from order to build and deliver in Ohio. So far around town 24-25 mpg and 33 on hwy at 70+. M Sport with all options but the headlights.

[@DRJIVAN]

Great review thank you kindly. May as well buy an M4, they start at $60,000 and have a lot of features standard instead of paying for extra options

[@mytwocents9335]

+DRJIVAN Wrong!! I just got done with a long and lengthy, and difficult decision regard either a 2016 M4 or a 2016 435ixdrive. A similar list of options brings the M4 way up as well (Like $8,000 ceramic brakes as an option for example)

[@jivannaran1162]

+MyTwoCents Thanks, that's handy to know. My uncle bought a brand new 435 Gran Coupe with the M Sport package in 2014 and it has dropped a lot in price. I've always been a Corvette man but even they are getting up there for a Z06/ ZR1

[@mytwocents9335]

Yep, expensive cars drop a lot in value. ALL of them, not just BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Porsche. BMW's hold up their value better than most though....at least according to industry watchdogs such as J.D. Powers, etc. And we all know how reliable their ratings are......

[@titleist999]

I agree, 57K is way too much for this car. That's almost entry level M3 price.

[@b1lleman]

half of the review was moaning about the price. However, I did appreciate the first part of it.

[@peter555peter1]

I agree with you on the price. Its toooooo much for the 435i.

[@Jordan-bf1ld]

Why doesn't this 435i have a hatched-trunk? 3:55

[@UTubeContributor007]

I think ur thinking of the Gran Coupe which has four doors and a hatched-trunk. The regular Coupes have the traditional trunk. I know, it confused me in the beginning too.

[@metinemre6]

Thanks for the review. However, no! there is no debate on that; and this car is not ``basically a 3 series coupe`` or ``a replacement`` for that. It is just BMW stopped making 3 series coupe...This car is 4 series which is longer wider and lower than 3 series coupe. I drove a lot of BMW`s since i had a drivers license. Never my own; but couple of Beemer fan friends had m5, m3, 318is, 8.50csi, 3.20d, 5.20, 5.28, x5, x3, x1, 6.45. Never my own... Then i could finally afford since any luxury object is super cheap here in USA. I purchased a 4.28i Msport and now i have a 2016 4.35i Msport. I can`t tell you how perfect this car is, yes very old fashioned inside. Some cheap plastics i agree. Mine is almost fully loaded and i only paid $56k+tax (msrp was 62k) due to very good relations with the dealership. I lived 30 years in Europe and now 6 years in USA. Any car is a steal in USA. with only ~8% tax lol? You think this car is expensive? No water is expensive here. Cars and gas is very cheap! Unless ofc you want to compare it to the price of a Kia. Or an Acura which is only a rebranded Honda. Lexus, infinity etc etc.... Those asian cars are expensive for what they actually are... And before the 4 series ownership, i had 2 different genesis coupe`s both 2013 2.0t and 3.8 track. Wife has a Santa Fe 2.0t sport and i test drove genesis sedan, equus, elantra, azera and veloster (service loaner sonata and tucson too). Despite the fact that Hyundai started making very nice-elegant cars lately; it is far from being close to BMW. forget being better than BMW. That`s almost like; calling ``Phoenix Suns`` a good team! Hyundai has at least another decade to be accepted and prove itself in the market for the segments.

[@RawAutos]

+metin emre gurbuz I appreciate your comment, but the 4-Series is a 3-Series with two fewer doors. So it's a 3-Series coupe that they call the 4-Series. It's not a radically changed or different car under the bodywork. It's the same thing as a 3, just with two doors. So it's still a 3-Series coupe.

[@metinemre6]

No it is not. It is very easy to distinguish a 3 series coupe from a 4 series coupe and they don`t have to be parked next to each other. If you are talking about the chassis yes it is same but same engine being used in different cars and sometimes a car and a truck and that doesn`t make them same either. They are different cars and whoever says 3 coupe and 4 coupe are same or 4 coupe is a 3 series coupe has no idea about cars. They drive different handle different accelerate different. Sorry. Maybe if you had one of your own you would think different.

[@RawAutos]

+metin emre gurbuz I've had multiple BMWs, including an E90 M3, for my personal cars. I've driven enough BMWs over the years, so I know what I'm talking about. The 3 and 4 look rather different from one another, duh... but they're nearly identical under the skin, which is what I'm talking about. That's why I call it a 3-Series coupe. The 4-Series isn't a real thing. You see the number on the back of the car, but under the skin is enough of a 3-Series to prove it's just a 3 with two fewer doors.

[@cfunicelli]

after the 60k mark might as well get a new m4/3 and for 57k might as well get used e92 m3

[@LabMotorsports]

RawAutos i am planning on getting the 435i m package or audi s4 which would you recommend

[@RawAutos]

It really kind of depends on whether you want four doors or two. The 435i M-Sport is very nice, but pricey, as is the S4.

[@RickLindahl]

Big difference here; 4dr vs 2dr. And the Audi has a front bias to its cars that make them feel very different in sporty driving. Give me a rear wheel drive BMW any day and I've tried most of the competition. I currently have a 330xi all wheel drive and it has a better rear bias than the Audi too but I'm going back to the 435i MSport with rear wheel drive for the oversteering fun :)

[@ManuSharma86]

How come no sports seats with M package. ?

[@edwinsouw1525]

Hey, Just wondering which is a better buy this car, MB C200 or MB E200 Coupe? (2014) Thanks

[@RawAutos]

Edwin Souw That's a pretty tough comparo, because they're both pretty different. The C200 is built on a sedan platform, whereas the E Coupe still rides on the old CLK platform just dressed up. It really depends on what you want. But I'd say the C200 is sportier, no?

[@johnverberne4508]

Hi, I can't decide between the BMW 4 series or the Audi A5, which one would you recommend and why? It will be my daily driver.

[@trym1966]

The Bimmer.

[@eltingville81]

Definitely the Audi

[@paulqueen444]

I cant take this guy seriously. You dont review a high end sportscar unshaven and wearing shorts and a pink tshirt. Call me when you have a real reviewer and send this guy back to his basement room at moms house.

[@TheAndyPKay]

You have to wear a suit to drive a beemer? i'll remember that when I'm heading to the beach in my 330..

[@paulqueen444]

TheAndyPKay No you dont need to wear a suit. But come on....would you wear that to work? A pink t-shirt and shorts? Put on your big boy pants....unless your target audience is adolesents living with mommy that could never afford a car much less a beemer. If thats the case then congradulations you found the perfect outfit.

[@paulqueen444]

Samuel Araiza I made a valid point that the vast majority of people would agree with. You just called me names like were in jr high. I think your a lying idiot.

[@HansDelbruck53]

He doesn't like the interior. I think the interior looks just fine. It's in keeping with what you would expect in the evolution of the Teutonic interiors of the classic BMWs. Makes you wonder what car interior he does like. Don't understand why he felt it necessary to read off the entire list of options or bemoan and kvetch over every little thing he felt wasn't up to his personal taste, but he should be reading off the dealer invoice prices instead of the MSRP of the vehicle and the options. I hope his future video presentations are edited better than this one.

[@DannyPaul]

Wait he said u can fit 2 people fit in the back lol so what u trying to use this car for ?

[@ogrtd295]

In my opinion, why not spend $64,200 to a base model new M4! not a 4 series!

[@JOHN_WICK_101]

Good job

[@KK201358]

I'll go order a basic M4 with almost $65k seriously. They are totally different cars.

[@claus1225]

i dont know why you are complaining about the price. America is one of the cheapest places to buy bmw.

[@chrisshelton1871]

***** No matter how much those companies will re-engineer and copy the Germans...they will never drive like a bmw.

[@RawAutos]

Chris Shelton You're absolutely right. I just had the 2015 Hyundai Genesis 3.8 sedan, and it drives better than my dad's '13 535i M-Sport. So it's a good thing they don't drive like BMWs, because too many BMWs these days don't drive like BMWs.

[@gnicevids]

RawAutos very true statement very true

[@trym1966]

RawAutos No offence: Why then bother to make reviews like that when the cars will end up as something you will never like compared to others? It is bias in my view and will not get any objective review others really can have any good of right? But I am sure that Hyundai Genesis is an awesome car as well ;)

[@claus1225]

people who buy hyundai are people who cannot afford bmw. hyundai doesnt drive like bmw, not even close. if you really think hyundai is a better car, then you are kidding yourself.

[@EliRichards1]

Your voice over kills me

[@RawAutos]

Thanks. I aim to please.

[@whatdoufeel]

After your review I took this car off my short list. I makes no sense to me to give my money to a car company that nickel and dimes me like this. Sure, they all do it to some degree but this is absurd.

[@frankmaza135]

haha Ive asked the same question ,why you have to choose like 16 different options instead of just one? that´s simple, it is a German car, now, germans think quite different to us, and you can see the same situation in Mercedes and some times Audi they will do whatever to save as much as they can so bmw knows it

[@jeffpuha8187]

Hey. Wait a minute. Your web-site build sheet has the 6-speed manual gearbox checked and listed in your equipment list, yet the car you're driving has the 8-speed automatic. What gives? The interior quality of this car approaches laughable for the money spent. I wish you could combine the exterior of this car with the interior of the Audi S5 Coupe. That would be about perfect, in my opinion.

[@Scorpio1075]

I thought he says the build sheet was for a hypothetical car... not the car he was driving. The build sheet was sole to show the cost of available option.

[@1010thechamp]

Based on what? The whole dash of the A5 is so dated its unreal, as for the quality, have you even sat in a A5 before? Apart from the seats 90% is all plastic anyway, full of shit, also in the A5 you get a airy Vectra feel, discusting and dated, not to mention the car drives like a beached whale.

[@pascutia]

How is everything a hard plastic?? Everything in the interior is soft touch!!

[@Johnny-yr4rb]

The price is not bad at all I ha e one and what your paying is for German engineering, engine, suspension, track handling and the car is meant to be driven hard! Cant even compare to Audi which are all plastic, heavy nose weight distribution while BMW are almost 50/50 splitt perfect weight distribution. And cant even compare to POS american cars which cant corner, everything cheap plastic, break a lot and are super over priced!

[@mytwocents9335]

+Johnny Dont forget that they can't compare to Japanese or Korean makes as well!

[@JackRR15]

I mean, all new cars pricing are bad. I can get a 2014 435i for like 40 000$ with 3 year warranty. Man the car brand new here in Canada with it's options was about 80 000$

[@Nahar144K]

Audio WAY too low!!

[@krawesome1139]

you guys in 'murica should stop whining about price really your taxes are so fuckin low i just ordered a 420i with m-sport, small navigation and surround view for 55k € which is about 60k $ a fully loaded 420i here is about 65k € / 70k $ fully loaded 435i about 80k € / 90k $ i really could freak out when im hearing american guys complaining... its horrible its a premium german car. a wonderful and good looking coupe, sporty and elegant enjoy your previlege about getting it that cheap and stop bitching around

[@prasmant09]

Dude, why didn't you at least wash the car before takign so many close-ups??

[@TehDigz]

Turn your mic up.

[@salvatoregiovanni8967]

You think you have your seat close enough to the steering wheel grandpa?

Salvatore Giovanni Hey, it's how the racers and hard-driving enthusiasts are supposed to sit. I did like your comment, though, because I laughed.

[@AnasKadah]

Dear josh .. in israel this car casts me 95000 us dollars can you believe that ?? we have 200% taxes on cars I would like to buy this car in usa thanks

[@Pyroshards]

Anas Kadah why the complain? This car is nearly 220k USD in Singapore

[@R.Specktre]

You are in a double clutch...click the Transmission stick over to the left...and use it manually. Come on, Man!

[@laweezemorton8884]

hard plastics? WTF? Maybe you have a wart on your finger that makes soft materials feel hard.. I can recommend a Dr... call me. Edit.. I 100% agree with you on the pricing.. REDUNK!

[@RawAutos]

I'm good on the doctor, thanks though. But yes, the entire center stack and console area are nothing but hard black plastic. That's what that stuff is called that you're touching. I guess you didn't know what it actually was that you were looking at. You don't need a doctor, but you came to the right place to learn something about cars. I guess you could say I'm an automotive professor. Thanks for watching, now you're free to do whatever else.

[@laweezemorton8884]

you're welcome for watching, but I still think you need to see a Dr. about that wart. BTW, I own a 435 M-sport.. Spot on about pricing (I hate BMW's shitty pricing scheme), but your brutish hands undoubtedly need some medical attention..

[@RawAutos]

Haha, my brutish hands. As much as it'll come back to bite me in the ass later I'm sure, people always say how soft my hands are. Years and years of little manual labor, but lots of driving will do that to you. I never said that they buttons were shitty to touch. I just said that the entire interior is hard black plastic. The volume knob is soft, though. My E90 M3 had softer materials wrapping the center console area.

[@laweezemorton8884]

I also have an e92 328xi with the sport package ( basically the same interior as your e90 M3) as a car for winter.. The F32 wins, hands down, in interior quality.. Good to hear I was wrong about your warty hands..I hear they can be a PITA to get rid of

[@RawAutos]

Laweeze Morton Eh, I think they're both not-so-hot interiors. The E9x was nice for its subtlety that just worked. The F3x is far more sparse, which is nice, but I feel the materials in this series are just pure plastic compared to at least being covered with some fabric like the center area of my M3. To be fair, I did have a wart on my left palm from Olympic lifting. I had a doctor friend burn it off (which hurts like hell, by the way), and it went away. Then it came back... and went away soon after by itself. Hasn't come back since.

[@jamessmith84240]

It must be lovely to have 65k as a new car budget. Lucky bastards getting paid so much.

[@claus1225]

which city is this?

[@RawAutos]

I'm in the state of North Carolina in the US.

[@zybexgaming2910]

Still cheap as fuck compared to australia, my x5 40D or 35D in the states is approx 110k usd. U guys got a fucking bargain there.

[@supermodel2011]

lol even my 14 year old audi a4 b7 has heated seats xD

[@DonnieBarkie]

Your talking waaay to long about the price of this car... so i dislike this video.

[@RawAutos]

SuperDigitalDanny You can't use proper grammar... so I dislike this comment.

[@DonnieBarkie]

RawAutos It is so unprofessional of you to get offensive. All I did was trying to give you advice, so you can make your future video's better. You have a lot to learn kid. Btw, I'm Dutch, so English isn't my main language.

[@gabrielflores1149]

RawAutos "It is so unprofessional of you to get offensive. " "Btw, I'm Dutch, so English isn't my main language." Ouch. But yeah, anyways, just a tip, make the review/speech FASTER paced (Felt pretty slow the way you were talking) have a good day :) GREAT CAR. Btw, it doesnt not look so boring when the interior is Coral Red.

[@vdkm]

Gabriel Flores Dutch people can speak better English than you guys speak Dutch so please shut the fuck up.

[@dennissaathoff5623]

SuperDigitalDanny Agreed. I'd rather hear the motor sound as well as more details about the car. Money isn't something to talk about, you have it, or you don't.

[@Sandouras]

I would have liked to see more of the car driving around nice roads than you sitting inside it talking. Unless you're Margot Robbie, showing the car is always better than showing yourself.

[@RawAutos]

Sandouras Sorry, as a one-man show, I have to do all filming, editing, etc. I don't really feel comfortable leaving my cameras on the side of the road and driving by them. You're welcome to come help me out for free, though.

[@theevilmeister]

+RawAutos Your videos sucks and you suck.

[@RawAutos]

Thanks, dad. I appreciate the support. Oh, and thanks for the view. You're supporting me one shitty comment at a time.

[@tommytexter4054]

Plz...US get the lowest price of car.....it cost much more in other country, in fact, it cost twice in China, man.....complaining about the price in the states? Plz......

[@jschauer31]

Sound sucks. Your voice needs to be louder; music quieter.

[@RawAutos]

Yeah, not sure what happened when I uploaded this. I reuploaded it twice because the voice was getting crushed. It was fine when I was editing it on FCPX, but then I just got tired of uploading to only find that the audio was changing on KZbin. So I just left it and read all the shitty audio comments over the years.

[@ExplorewithZac]

Technical Quality: 6/10 (bad audio) Presentation: 7/10 (trying to hard to sound classy/professional)

[@rockOdaddy]

You mister should be very very very lucky that you can buy a 435i for 60000 dollars. I have the sam budget I can buy an 420i with M equipment. Reverse the second half of the video and tell your countrymen to go buy an BMW immidiately !!!!

[@nenadbogar9859]

this is a review of a guy in a pink tshirt. thats all you see in this video

[@RawAutos]

Nenad Bogar I was really trying to review the shirt, but there happened to be a car involved.

[@vashsant]

good video coverage but you're quite possibly the most boring host ever. Hello Monotone.

[@papaction]

poor sound quality

[@paulweinitschke7605]

If you don't want to pay the price, don't buy german cars!

[@mytwocents9335]

+Paul Weinitschke I agree! But once you do pay the price, and do buy German, you'll never, ever go back to an American, Japanese or Korean make. If you absolutely have to, it will be a very depressing day and you'll immediately see what you're missing.

[@Coyote.Collector]

or with that 50k buy a e92 m3

[@spiderbob7879]

Coupe = Coupe' as in KOOOPAY! NOT KOOP!

[@Coyote.Collector]

buy a 2012 bmw 335is for 29k and smoke that 435

[@skillz1855]

Plastic ,, hard plastic, engine, turbo and electrical issues, that's all u need to know..don't buy one,it will stay in the shop more than on the road

[@v6modder]

Sure it will pal

[@skillz1855]

mister one its already factual,, these things have the worst service history on the planet. prove me wrong.I repair them daily, love the cars, hate the engineering..( horrible ) u would have to see it to believe it...... it's just that bad

[@jonathancharles21]

What the fuck are you talking about? I have actually spoken to the engineers of BMW North America at the BMW Ultimate Driving Event and there have been NO complaints of the 435. I doubt you work on these cars daily, I doubt you even drive a BMW and I think you're another fucking troll spewing out propaganda.

[@skillz1855]

***** Lol, funny thing is I have absolutely nothing to prove to u..these cars are Shit with wheels,, the only good ones are the older ones....again, could care less if u believe me....

[@skillz1855]

***** go look up consumers affairs and see how many unhappy BMW customers are and wanting to just junk their cars......engines,transmissions, brakes, the list goes on..Straight junk..can't argue with facts...these are new cars were talking about

[@cjmoritz]

video was good so thanks, however just say it! BMW is NUTZ for what there asking for this car, its way out of line and so is the M235. its like they make there cars out of gold. also the interior in all BMW is so blah, its very boring and not worth paying for, Audi & M-B do a lot better job

[@eltingville81]

Rather buy a Corvette at this price range. It's much more of a head turner and has tremendously more power than this car. Also can't believe at $57,000 before tax and other fees you don't have navigation and a back up camera, that's crazy!

[@panas2391]

cheaper m4 i guess.....

[@mufate7]

thats the laziest car review i have ever seen - guy you cant sit through out the whole review sitting on the drivers seat lol you havent tried the back seat once or showed us the engine unit

[@RawAutos]

mufate7 I showed you the "engine unit". There's not much to see with a big cover over it. And realistically, it's a four-seat coupe. If you're looking for the biggest rear seat in this category, what in the hell are you doing buying a coupe over a sedan?

[@nicholastangredi6994]

This review was painful.

[@hsbthree]

Scary ass music. Makes me sad....
