Glowing review from a channel that's typically pretty critical about BMWs.

Despite noting artificial feel at the end, they seemed to have big smiles during the test drive.

Honestly, I think this car is going to spoil me.

I'll have to upgrade to a 200K car in the future to feel the same drastic jump I did from my old car to the M3

One of the best car channels out there. Makes me scratch my head at the popularity of the Doug DeMuro types.

And I love how he bashes idrive8 2 mins in.

I think it's hard for folk who were around "in the old days" to not feel the artificial feeling in almost every modern car. It strikes me periodically even though I really love my car. Some of it is a bundle of "30 Helens agree, it was better before" and some of it is totally accurate. For the most part, I personally try to accept what we've lost as an offset to what we've gained. It's easier on some cars than others.

It's fun to see the Angry Water Fowl giggling so much, though.

I've tried, but can't make it through a SG review. As for DeMuro, my FFWD button gets worked, but I can at least start and skip to the finish for the Score.

Why? Because you're the biggest Karen on this site when it comes to hating the new iDrive 8 & flat dash screen, and how it doesn't impact you personally in any way?

I have a love / hate relationship with this channel. I think they're absolute dicks (at least one of them) but they make good content. Will have to watch eventually.

Nice to see them displaying sh*t-eating grins for 90% of the ride

I do the exact same thing when WOT in my m3

If I get another bmw after this heavily modded F30 xdrive/rwd with lsd it would definitely have to be MXDRIVE. Best of both worlds really. Hopefully they add it to the incoming M2.

That's IFF I don't end up in an Emira V6 or a GT4 holiday szn 2023.

I'm flattered, but I sincerely doubt it. Seems you just like to bitch about things.

I could see a point to your never ending whining about iDrive 8 & the new flat screen if it somehow impacted you personally or someone you know with firsthand experience with the new system, but since you own a MY2022, your opinion on the subject really doesn't mean squat.

I'll wait to give my opinion on iDrive 8 and the new dash screen once I take delivery of my MY2023 M3 after I've have spent some time using the new system.

The score is irrelevant, it's in his opinion. The only people who actually pay attention to the score are the people who don't know much about cars.

I don't think there is any debate that car drives with precision and is technically very sound. Proportions, body lines, grill, etc another story.

Looks like a blast to drive.
