BMW M3 Review

The BMW M3 is the epiphany of touring cars, with pure torque and extreme power it’s like a land rocket. Every new model they bring out blows all the competition into the stars. Surely nothing could be wrong, could it?Well there is. It’s been made a complete softy, the lines are too curved, too bulged and frankly deformed. But you think again once you get inside. The one we road tested had a sharp red finish to the interior with just about all of the latest gadgets. I also have to aplaud the fantastic six speed gear-box which changes gear without the clunk of the old alternative, possibly better than the brand new Mercedes C63′s.

That signature beat of the world famous v8 draws you in, like the smell of a freshly baked loaf. Has the German sensibility finally worn off to give way to the Brittish or Italian style brawn. Though the electronics definitely weren’t worked on by a man in  shed in the middle of Yorkshire. It’s so complex that there’s over 1 mile of wiring and more than one motor?!

Overall it is a stunning car, but they could really have sharpened lines. Thankfully it wasn’t all German and a bit of fun shone through.

Score 8/10
