Toronto Red G80 M3 Coming in Hot! Side-by-side vs F90 M5

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Went to the dealer I purchased my M5 from to see the new G80 M3. Front end looks better in person. I thought I would never ever like this car but I took it for a drive and I was sold. Picking it up on Saturday. Check out these photos with my M5

Is that M5 Motegi red? Toronto red really pops next to Motegi.

Congrats! Post some driving impressions once you put on some mileage on both.

Wish I had the cojones to pull off a color like TR.

Driving the M3 was an engaging experience. The looks, sound and overall driving feel is what sold me. Car felt very responsive and steering felt quick.

For the first time in M3 history (not including CS/CSL models), you can determine that by looking at the badge on the trunk. Competition means AT, otherwise it's an MT. Of course, one could easily swap the badge once they take possession of the car, but obviously that's not the case here.

Been a fan of the red against black accents. Really looks good and congrats on the swap.

Looking forward to a longer term review going from the M5 to M3. I would think most would age to the M5 from the M3 but I get it.

TR is my second choice. Looks great with the black accents! I wish they'd have offered a darker red like your M5 or Aventurine! Enjoy!!

I love it! TR is fantastic. Ordered an F98 in that color, but decided on an F90 instead. Love seeing it get more and more love. BMW nailed it with TR imho

Enjoy!

Remove the fangs and you have a pretty wide, clean and aggressive look/car. Not sure why bmw extended the fangs the way they did.

The new G80 is growing on me... But I just cant justify the price tag of $80-90K.

Like, I would way rather a used 9114s or gts, as its performance is better in every metric

What am I missing here?

But, I thought the comp had those cabon inserts in the lower grilles? Or was tat just the cars with the carbon package?
