My new M3

BC321 · 03-10-2018, 08:52 AM

Just traded in my M2 for this M3..... wow! It blows me away how much better it is.

AIRHEIR · 03-10-2018, 08:58 AM

Congrats love SO. Is an awesome color in person with so much depth and variation.

Circuit Hunter · 03-10-2018, 09:08 AM

Congrats,looks great! What makes the M3 better to you? Just curious, if I only needed two doors i’d have an M2 in my garage.

Let me take a stab:

the M2 is heavy for it's size - despite being >8" longer, the M2 is only 125lb lighter than an M3
Subjective but the M3 is better looking
M2's interior is cheap compared to the M3
M3 has more HP, more torque, is faster
The M2's bone jarring suspension makes for a poorer daily driver compared to M3
The M3 has a carbon fiber roof

If I had needed only two doors and had to buy a BMW but cannot afford an M4, I'd have an M240 in my garage. It's 9/10ths the car the M2 is and is a better daily driver than the M2.

How is the ride quality on the M3 comp pack compared to the M2? I also have an M2 that I'm preparing the trade for an M3, but the M3 is non comp pack.
