Not bad? Its amazing. The E36 M3, which used the previous S52 engine, had the highest HP per litre at the time. I've driven the E46 M3 around for 2 days, and my god is that an amazing engine from 'just' 3.2 straight six. Simply amazing engines..
Shazzkid They can be great for giving your car aux input. Most cars didn’t have them until the mid to late 2000s but many in the early 2000s had a cassette player. Search up cassette to aux, should work well.
***** in the Europe since launch they called the ZM3 Coupe the bread van ...i guess it was a term used for many cars of a similar design it would seem ;)
By now you should have realized that Top Gear is more of an entertainment show than a car review show. If I wan't a car review I normally visit Motor Trend, /Drive and EVO among others on here on RUclips.
eWorkx I do realize that, I just think that when Top Gear actually is just making up shit it takes away from the show. Like when they showed the Tesla Roadster running out of battery (even though it was still fully charged) and when they get facts wrong. "This is the most powerful convertible in the world" or something like that.
***** haha, or this past season when Jeremy refused to review the A class hatchback because it was too expensive. When I hear a claim that sounds ridiculous I always look it up to make sure its true and not just a joke. I like them on Top Gear because they are funny and I get to see them drive some ridiculously expensive cars. Oh also the hot girls that just happen to be standing behind them help cover for some of the BS.
Randy Little Haha what? www.teslamotors.com/de_DE/teslavstopgear green.autoblog.com/2013/03/10/uk-appeals-court-dismissed-teslas-bbc-top-gear-lawsuit/ Look, they even said that it was fake, but a "reasonable" viewer would know it was faked for comedic purposes.
I'VE HAD ONE OF THESE FOR NIGH ON 20 YEARS NOW. ALWAYS MAKES ME SMILE WHEN TAKE IT OUT. RAW ENGINE SOUND. ONE OF BMW'S BEST CARS.RARELY ANY PROBLEMS. HAD ORIGINAL VANOS PROBLEM MY MECHANIC CHANGED A RUBBER GASKET < 1 EURO. RUNNING EVER SINCE. BRILLIANT
It like an angry Sonic the hedgehog. It also looks like a more more modern interpretation of classical designs such as Morgans, that long hood and chopped rear, hotroddish. Then you get the long grilles which are reminiscent of the BMW 328 from the 30s. As an automotive designer, I can tell that the person designing this was having a moment of wild imagination. Very unique and cool car.
Very underrated the z3 probably because of the soft suspension setup from stock but our demonstrator is using bilstein ps10, which transform the car into the car it should have been from the factory
Interesting to stumble on this video and notice how, like Clarkson, Hammond's accent has become progressively less public school over the intervening years
I'd defo have this car over the E36 or E46 just looks so different & rare it's been years since in seen one £7,000 pound on Auto Trader hmmmmm check please
enjoyed this mostly because my m coupe is dakar Yellow too, I love mine and never want to part with her!!! My wife has a Z3 3.0I Roadster and you can really feel the difference in the corners, coupe is a lot stiffer, M coupe for life!!
Nice! Dakar Yellow is very rare color. Though i think it fits E36 M3 better, i like how unique it makes M Coupe look. I want to own 3.0 Z3 Coupe some day... M Coupe too expensive... But i love these cars.
When he starts the car, you can see the temperature is in cold (which means, the engine is REALLY cold on this model) and he is getting away with burnout. WTF?
beautiful car, raw and raucous with proper rear suspension, not that namby pamby e36 saloon rubbish that just understeers everywhere because its 'safer'!
this thing deserved the e39 m5 engine its too cool looking for its time for a boring straight six of an old e36 bmw could done something wild for me this was always like a meaner rwd hot hatch
THAT JACKET THO L0L
+JuggusNawt I thought he was wearing a fat suit at first.
+JuggusNawt teletubbie
JuggusNawt f
...but I like the jacket :(
You laughed three years ago but that'd honestly be worn today. Heck i'd wear it.
HE SAID TOP GEAR, HE SAID TOP GEAR
Richard seems to have accidently put on a tent
321 hp from a straight six in 2000....not bad. That cassette player though.
Shreddah keep in mind that S50B32 engine was introduced in 1996.
And non-turbo as well.

simon lloyd but turbo you idiot
Without turbocharger? unlikely!
+King Brilliant Subaru has never sold 350hp cars. Subaru still makes slow 300hp cars.
Why this dude look like he bouta battle on Hoth
When there's comments from 4 years ago saying how old the cassette player is, but my car is so old it still has one.
I still play music on cassette in my car lol.

The clownshoe- and I love it. One of the best and unique cars BMW has made.
Clownshoe ? they call it the bread van .
***** in the Europe since launch they called the ZM3 Coupe the bread van ...i guess it was a term used for many cars of a similar design it would seem ;)
And rarest. I want one in estoril blue.
oh the cassette player how i missed those
Easily my favorite car that BMW has ever made.
You have no taste then
@@_zigger_ Nah, but I can smell your from here.
omg what the heck is he wearing?
I love the old school reviews where it is actually about the car not like modern TG!

Look at current prices for this car vs a 996 from the same era. Not even close. These things are proper legends.

"the politically correct times" lmao if only he knew....
It’s even worse now....

Good review. The cassette headunit was often backed up with a CD-changer in the boot.
3:00 he says Top Gear
I would love to own a Seca Laguna blue one and his jacket is sick very Y2K
the drift at 4:15 lol
4:11
A hamster in a clownshoe. How cute.
oh dear God! Richard Hammond what in the hell are you wearing???
Very underrated the z3 probably because of the soft suspension setup from stock but our demonstrator is using bilstein ps10, which transform the car into the car it should have been from the factory
"Radio cassette player as standard" that sounds so odd now lol
Well he's pretty good at this maybe he should have his own show with some mates who can help entertain the masses
Liam Gallagher called, he wants his parka back.
Even in 00" BMW still didn't give you a CD player on a M-car... tight bastards lol Just a well the 6 cylinder sounds so good.
soundseeker63 there is a 6 disc changer in the trunk
What a coat lmfao!
Interesting to stumble on this video and notice how, like Clarkson, Hammond's accent has become progressively less public school over the intervening years
still costs about the same now as when they were new. might be time to get one
Vintage version of Chris Harris on Cars?
If Australia got any of the m coupe version, I've never seen one over here. : ' /
What is that camera angle in the car!
Ah, how I wish Subaru would make a clownshoe variant of the BRZ.
Did you see the GT86 hatch??????
Concepts I love, real products I adore. And buy.
Any time the marketing department let's m go nuts you get a god damn legend every time e30 this and the 1m
I would love to have a Z3M. We have them in the USA too.
Is it a save assumption to say that this is taped in 2000 too?
Hum, very good reviewer.
I'd defo have this car over the E36 or E46 just looks so different & rare it's been years since in seen one £7,000 pound on Auto Trader hmmmmm check please
check prices now! lol, about £16l for a half-decent one!
my dad had that stereo in his e36 tourer ah
enjoyed this mostly because my m coupe is dakar Yellow too, I love mine and never want to part with her!!! My wife has a Z3 3.0I Roadster and you can really feel the difference in the corners, coupe is a lot stiffer, M coupe for life!!

Still the best exterior design of all modern Bimmers... so fine. (even in yeller ?!?).
Peace.
oh the compact disk player. Funny how tape players now have MP3!
Lol at the in-car camera angle.
Miss my M Coupe :(
OMG @ fashion choices of 2000
Where on earth is my compact disc player?!
That jacket!
Shoe for life!
Nice car!!!!!! With charerter!!!!
When he starts the car, you can see the temperature is in cold (which means, the engine is REALLY cold on this model) and he is getting away with burnout. WTF?
magnadar video editing
beautiful car, raw and raucous with proper rear suspension, not that namby pamby e36 saloon rubbish that just understeers everywhere because its 'safer'!
i beat it with an 98 firebird formula ls1. on the highway at 70. and we punched it. i walked it at about 85mph and kept pulling! thank god ha.
+David Heitman im sure you did
+David Heitman but then you had to turn....
video or its fake
then you woke up and realised it was a dream
+Asim Rahaman not really! ha. stock on would have not beat it! i would have got dusted!
Nice car
this thing deserved the e39 m5 engine its too cool looking for its time for a boring straight six of an old e36
bmw could done something wild
for me this was always like a meaner rwd hot hatch
Looks like a sliced bmw estate
It's so jarring to see CD players being treated as one of the "bells and whistles" back then. Really gives some perspective.
Alan Partridge at his best.
awsome :]
Richard accidentally put on Clarkson's Jacket
S50B30 best engine ever made
Coolest BMW ever made.[not the M version]
Such an horrible colour :D But the car is awesome I want one.
4:29 "In these politically correct times" *if only they knew what it'd be like in 20 years from then...*
WTF kind of coat is that Hammond.....
Only 6298 miles in a 13 years old car? 2:26
I think the review is from when the car was still pretty new
so young:)
Bellissima
Was he wearing a fast suit?!
It's like he used his on camera to film this. Haha
Aaaaah the jacket ......
'BMW is losing its soul' even then car reviewers loved using those buzzwords
Hamstaa
How does 2000 look so dated already
Looks like a bread van.
Looks like a duck :D especially in this colour :D
Why do British people say "zed" ANYTIME something is called "z"
Wearing a maternity top.
who is this small boy
lol losing their souls. If he couldve saw 2014 ;)
hamster :)
Does anyone else not understand wtf he's saying??
Looks like a banana, maybe the most weird looking BMW ever made.
King Galfrid one of the most beautiful for me
hahahaha what is he wearing? lmao
It looks as bad as his haircut
Wtf is a porsh?
That car's nearly as ugly as that jacket 😂
One fugly car!
It's BEAUTIFUL!
SO "ugly"--its BEAUTIFUL! Yes--I own one. Park next to a Boxter.--see where the line begins. And be ready to answer questions.
+Tom Traynor so true..... egh i wish i had one... in MN... i got a long way to drive to even feel its presence
Love the car, hate the color.
By gawd, that is one ugly piece of work :)
looks like my wife from the back ,never do a second take when walking off .i kiss my e30 m3 at night .every night .
Lol...clown shoe.
It looks like a shoe and not a good one
WTF is he wearing?
its ugly
Grow up.
This is the first time i see this clip. But Richard, why do you wear a straight jacket? Btw, a ugly car in an ugly color.
อกไำเแ
I still wonder why they made this thing to a Station wagon, and call it "Coupé". It's not a Coupé, it's a freaking 3-Door P.O.S. on wheels.
Now that is a fucking ugly car!
