They are a fair size Lee yes, not sure how much bigger than an M3, prob not too much though right?

3 great cars. Had a m3 500 edition for a week & loved it apart from the mpg & almost bought it,also had the m235 for a couple of days & it's a great motor too. But can't really say either made me smile the way my 35is does

Yes I don't think they are a great deal bigger to be fair but the E92 M3 can feel a little big and heavy at slow speeds but strangely it does hide its weight/size well when pushing on though.

I just wish though BMW would update the Z4s interior though, especially the binacle display, it can't be that hard to do and don't understand why they didn't do anything on the LCI to bring it inline with the F Series.

I had an E92 M3 last year. Huge disappointment, great engine but gearing too high, no torque low down, and a very heavy car. I have over 20 years experience with Porsches and was expecting much more from BMW's equivalent. Would probably be much better with the competition pack. Lovely looking car though.

There's only one M car in that line up and it's the M3.
Dependes if you want a true M car or not.

Its good to hear someone else having the same view as me about it!

I usually get gunned down on other forums with owners telling me its the best car in the world bar none and how dare I criticise it!!

I had spent years and years wanting one but now wish I had just left it as a dream because the reality was one hell of a come down...I think I joined the M3 party too late though because I loved the E36 M3`s I have driven but BMW had changed direction a fair bit with the E92.

I would still like to tick the E46 M3 Box,

Im not interesed in the E92 M3 to be honest, i would rather have a 1M!

The 1M was what I would also have preferred but at the time my budget £30k and the 1M was fetching nearly £40k and the dealer had one in the showroom and I said to him I would like to be driving away in that!

They have really held their value well too so it would have been a far more wise choice in more ways than one.

No contest on looks IMO - the Zed wins it

M235i is probably best all round car. M3 is tasty but running costs...

i think you are all missing the plot here

am i the only one who cannot see the point in buying what is visually a bog std box IE M1 or M3 with a big engine , they are to be found absolutly everywhere , especially the M3 common as muck

there is nothing unique about the M1 or M3 ,its a marketing exercise by BMW to sell more units ,take a bog std metal box add a an M badge ,wack the price up .please form an orderly que here

and you guys fall for it every time ,the E89 on the otherhand is unique ,nothing like it ,the Cayman could temp me but its a coupe , the boxter is ,well lets face it er ugly

in my opinion , the E89 looks the part and you dont see many about ,its a no brainer folks
