Late to the party, but after watching the 0-60 at least 10 times the C300 hit it first though they're literally all 0.1 second from another. Not sure how you guys got the 0-60mph or 0-100kph times...
Hi guys, which road did you take in this video?
I’m having a hard time making up my mind between a 2019 MB C300 and a 2019 Audi A5 Sportback, would be nice to see a review of the Audi by Throttle House
I am a die hard fan of Audi,but this new BMW 3 series looks so damn great...
That rear.... no thanks
Honestly speaking, i hate it lol. Ive been a beemer fan for the longest time too and i just dont like it
It sure does.
I hope i can afford to buy it. Perhaps next year if i get co op from university 😂
I got mine new new 330i :) so great
Why am I watching this? I have a Hyundai lease and I have an exam in the morning XD Great video guys

Have you any pic of that
It's now 9 months later. Did you ever pass that exam? Are you still even alive?
@@angrysocialjusticewarrior I am alive and well haha! Have passed exams so far 🙏
The boyish grins they both had while driving the 330i says everything.
Just took over a lease on an A4 and I am lovin’ it. Drove through a serious snow storm on Saturday and was amazed at how sure-footed it was!
Why am i watching this.. i can barley afford to gas up my corolla
Suddenly it might change : )
Someday you won't visit a gas station ever again 🔋
Cars are overrated. It's a diminishing investment. You'll never make money from cars (except rare collector models like Porsche 911)
You buy a German luxury and you lose 20% immediately once the car is delivered. It's ok to drive a beater.

Can't wait to watch the battle of the real king: BMW M3 vs Audi RS4 vs Mercedes C63 AMG
Or maybe amg gt 4 door
Victor Ionut vs the new m8 Comp hehe😘
I don't know why Audi discontinued the RS4 Sedan cause the Avant is a station wagon, it would be murded by the other 2
This is not a fair comparison at all. And m8 vs the c63 is fair but not an m3. Completely different classes
I love your car reviews, they are absolutely fun to watch. Most of today's car reviews focus too much on things that are very irrelevant (i.e.what kind of knobs the radio has, are they too big or too small ) but you guys went straight to driving dynamics which is what car enthusiasts really car about. I have a BMW F30 and I love the interior in that one, not a bog fan of those virtual dials.
Reviews on more generalistic channels have to focus on the same things most people, unfortunately, focus on the most.
BMW for more driving dynamics, Mercedes for more comfort, Audi is somewhere balanced.
What are you twelve
The Audi is designed as a front wheel drive car, and has been retrofitted with a real drivetrain, it’s not in the same league as the others in driving dynamics
> Mercedes for more comfort
Comfort of creeks
Yeah I bet the creaking sound of badly fitted plastic crap is very comfortable lol. BMW and Audi are more comfortable, BMW probably just edges the Audi because the BMW leather is better than Audis and better than the fake Merc leather.
jaggermeister 3 I bet you don’t even own a Mercedes like I do and I can tell you the comfort in my Mercedes gl is way better than a BMW X5 I drove and the leather is better too
Really really need this same test on the m340i, C43, and S4. You guys have had great production value and it’s getting even better. Keep it up!
This. M340i comes with a Limited Slip Diff as standard.
Preach
And also the m4,rs4,c63
The M340i is still gonna roll out to dealerships soon so I’m sure it’s coming!
@@m.u.7155 Uhm m4 (coupe) against rs4 (wagon) lol? The only proper and fair battle that can occur here is m4 vs rs5 vs c63s, aka all coupes.
I love your format for the show and really enjoy watching you guys. You have a nice way of combining your knowledge and enthusiasm for cars and it comes through.

I have owned all BMW Audi Mercedes in the past and my friends and family own all the cars in the video. Currently, I own the Audi S4 2018 model. Personally, I recommend Mercedes Benz for luxury and Audi for performance and for feeling young and cool.(Audi is very famous now because it was in the Iron man movies and avengers movies) BMW is worse now than it used to be.
Avengers rock Hi there I have quick question i also bought 2018 s4 red seats all that stuff I love love love it really solid car but I have second taught on fun it’s too heavy not agile like maybe m2 would be I know different cars please what’s your take on this car??? thank you
as audi lover I have to Admit that BMW looks amazing

New 3 Series interior is excellent especially with Merino extended leather option.
Not the new 2 series tho😏
haha weird kidney grille haha
Most of the comments are about Audi or Bmw , i like how everyone ignored Mercedes
Sushant Modgil Even tho Mercedes is the best
Audi can’t compete with Mercedes and BMW in speed
SP FromNY914 bahahha
Suryateja GT be quiet BMW fan
SP FromNY914 Audi is third tier compared to the other two. It’s like Nissan is to Honda and Toyota and Dodge is to ford and Chevy
From those 3, I think I prefer the Audi A4. It's a good balance between crazy driving performance and luxury/aesthetics. Also, it's the cheapest 👌
They look the best in person for sure. The 2022 a4 is so sick. My neighbor has one.
The cheapest is the mercedes cause audi and bmw will constantly brake down
@@Chr1sM8 That's
why I am thinking of getting a Mercedes. I love Audi and BMW but the reliability is such a nightmare.
@@robertrydlewski9538 BMW's have actually been more reliable than their Mercedez and Audi counterparts for the past 6 years. I recommend you check out some their cars with the b48 and b58 engines, they have been proving themselves to be incredibly reliable. I don't know about that s58, though.
@@robertrydlewski9538 They're all equally reliable or unreliable depending on how they've been maintained every body has their biases so they'll tell you different
So good to see high quality Canadian content that isn't cringe worthy. This and the Straight Pipes are some of the best car review channels.
Probably, but they are a good distraction and the quality of their editing is good.

@Josh Lum - I can't get past his condescending tone with everything
the opening was cringe worthy.
James Roberts straight pipes is cringy and their not reviews, they never really say anything bad about cars
Love that the 330i is the base model for you guys. We get a 320i, 330i and m340i, we also get a 330e hybrid. 320i and 330i are the same core engine, different tune and a few parts are different, but both 2 litre 4 cylinder.
Thanks for the car reviews guys. This is the video that helped me decide on the 2020 BMW 330i. I absolutely love the car!
Hey, I'm actually looking to get the 2020 BMW 330i. Since its been a few years, how is your experience?
I had a great experience with my 2020 330i. Great reliable car and good on gas as well. However, mine was a lease, once my lease was up I got a 2023 M340i. @@husamahmed6539
Not gonna lie the 3 series looks absolutely beautiful
That Rear ? The worst ever
Fred Desk what do you not like about it?
@@freddesk1693 Are you fucking blind?
Yes it does, way better than all 3 series
Fred Desk that rear is to gorgeous
These two have very good on screen chemistry, they should be the next hosts of top gear.
I would take the Audi for sure. Having driven all of them I really like the way the Audi drives, and the interior is very nice.
I absolutely agree. I like the Mercedes and BMW looks but having test driven them, it would be the Audi for me then the BMW and sorry I would rather drive a Ford Focus or Golf than a C-Class... its just not fun. Something is off. (I am sure the AMG is of course superb)

owning 2018 A4 black package, sport package (1 inch lower) flat bottom steering wheel for a year and i love it. The car has exceeded my expectations. I thought it would be small for me I'm 6ft tall, but I feel very comfortable in it. I would love it to have more torque distribution to the rear but overall dynamic mode driving is fun.
Car manufacturers, please stop with the use of piano black plastic and fake exhausts tips.

The exhaust isn't FAKE. It is definitely there under the vehicle. The sounds? yes. Because the noise dampenig in these vehicles are so great, You wouldn't hear it otherwise.

"I grew up in a family of 3 series, lucky they took me in seeing as they are inanimate objects." Definitely one of the funniest things I've ever heard a car reviewer say.
Great video, guys! Seriously...You guys made an awesome video with excellent quality! I watched the whole thing!
Your reviews are Amazing! You really put me almost driving and feeling the cars watching this video. Tank you!
BMW is the benchmark in this segment. What a machine!
Hopefully, is by far the newest
Not for long!

@@dinocrest1946 nope. Only as long as it takes for the new c class to come out which is just around the corner

I've watched this a few times since it was released, and I just noticed that Thomas mentioned how the 330i doesn't like to steer straight on a highway. Yes! Validation!
So.. what does that mean? Is that good or bad?
Never noticed it myself even at 150 km/h in our 2021 330i
@@ErisAlter ok, thank you.
I have just completed a transition from BMW420i to Audi A4. It is definitely feel like an upgrade. Serious upgrade. I love Audi A4, the exterior is amazing.

When I hear corner I look at bmw when I hear luxury I look at Mercedes and when I look at all wheel drive quattro is the only word that comes to my mind.
Blob Lexus is the new flagship luxury brand frrrrr
From teaching me how to work on my e46, to this, absolutely inspiring.
Thanks for sticking around for the journey!
This is my first time watching you guys video and this level of production is incredible! Thank you for the visual & auditory experience!🤞🏾
Great review guys! My M550 is being serviced and bmw loaned me a 330 xdrive. Lovely car and I have to agree that it does wander a bit on the highway. Hopefully BMW fixes that because it would truly be a perfect car if the steering at highway speed tracked a little sharper.Great work guys!!
I got the Laoner as well. I have an M2. I thought the 330xi was a great car
I have test driven all three of them. I settled on the Mercedes-Benz C300 because it’s my own preference and taste, so I bought it. I have been happy ever since. 👍
This is the first video I watched from you guys and I'm impressed, this was a very good quality review, also you are Canadian so it's great! (although not as great as being French Canadian). Could you talk a bit about the feedback from the road in the steering, because I think that's really important to the driving experience, and also the solidity of the chassis and the breaks, which are really important too. I subscribed right away and I am going to watch more of your old videos. Keep up the good content!
There's a firmware update that resolves a lot of issues they were having in the 3 series. That firmware patch gets automatically applied when the owner is logged into the car and BMW Connected apps and services are updated.
Lobe your videos, always looking forward for the next one. I would love more drive by shots around corners to make it perfect. Most shots driving are inside and the front, just my 5 cent.
"Chose your method of going into a tree"😁👏👏
Laughed out loud...
What the hell...?
Audi
Trust me I know this experience.
i sent a corvette into a tree 😇
Excellent review guys, definitely one of the best comparisons of these cars that I've seen to date. I'm also really glad you brought up the interior quality and creeky plastics in the C300, I've been dealing with that in my C300 for almost 2 years now and it gets more and more anoying every day. Great work, keep it up!!!
Thanks. Yeah we'd have expected better from such a premium brand, too

Thanks and welcome!
i don't usually say this much about youtube channels, but you guys have great production. keep producing great videos and you guys will reach 1 million subscribers in no time.
I rented a 2018 c300 for a week the acceleration is extremely smooth there’s no jerky feeling or head back in the seat it doesn’t even feel as fast as the 0-60 it’s strictly comfort and quiet Cabin
If you're 25 and single, get the BMW. If you're 35 and married with 2 kids, get the Audi. If you're a grandpa, get the Merc
Lol nice
34 years old, married, two kids, 330i xDrive Touring M-Sport, amazing car. I had an Audi B9 A4 before and the Beamer is in its own league.
M 54 and single no kids no wife what should I get?
You can go for the classic digital cockpit if you want on the bmw, you can even go with the total analogic one.
That intro was a killer 🤣" no more lies " good job guys !!!
They firmed up the suspension for the 330i for the 2019 model, and it's a little too firm now, even in the base suspension, for a "luxury" car. I could understand this on the M-sport or M340I, but I think the base suspension should be more comfortable.
I expect an BMW to be more stuff than an Audi oder Mercedes. Everything else would ruin the reputation
Audi's line up is starting to look outdated ... Bmw and Mercedes is looking fresh
at least the audi lasts more than a few years XD
@@WayToManyAssassins our BMW had a plethora of maintenance problems so we were forced to trash it lol. Never again. Got a Honda Accord instead, way better and no problems yet.

@4.526.433 views nigga come on... LOL
false. Audi and Mercedes residual and depreciation do not plummet such as a BMW does across all models Performance and Luxury. Especially, performance models. Example a M2 will depreciate to 40k in a year with 12k+ mileage on it vs. a RS3 can have up to easily 13k ish miles and be worth over 57-58k reaching almost 60k.

The 3 series aged so well! I often see it in the city and it’s just one of the nicest sedans there are. The touring version is even better looking in my opinion.
I have an A4 and I absolutely love it! Wouldn’t exchange it for any other car in this class. It even converted me from a diehard Merc fan into an Audi fan

8:35 yea i had the same issue with keeping it straight at highway speeds when i bought mine. It was the alignment that was off. My guess it was from shipping the car all the way from Germany or it just left the factory out of spec for some reason.

It depend on what you like. If you want classic looking C class. Want more simplistic, audi or sport and unique looking go BMW.
I prefer the Mercedes, I think it looks best in both exterior and interior.
What are you talking about, the kidney grills are huge, and the chrome trim makes it looks worse!

I just picked up the 2019 A4 Premium Plus today for a great deal. It’s a nice car. It’s peppy and got good tech. The B&O sound is amazing. I’m happy so far.
This is exactly what I was looking for! Considering Audi A4 or BMW series 3.
Which one did you end up choosing?
Just raising the bar AGAIN! Awesome chemistry - and definitely...NO MORE LIES!

I think so it seems like E46 was born again in G20 model!!
why is the merc in normal mode but the audi in dynamic and the bmw in sport WTF
I noticed that!
Mere pass Audi, bmwhai
Either way. With my w204 C300 its no difference between C S or Manual..
The Car shifts at the same excact moment and drives without any notice.
Well i dont have a turbo so who am i talking about r4 2 Liter Motors 😂😂😂
@@DerAngeloMerte that not true at all, i have a c204 and theres huge difference
Foursh I Have a C400 (later badged C43) AND C63 AMG and there’s a massive difference between modes. The shift points are later which keeps the turbos spooled up. Not sure if anyone noticed but the BMW and Audi have traction control off. It doesn’t look like the C300 is. Any slipping will cause the engine to retard timing to gain traction. If you can control the car you’ll accelerate faster with traction control off because it’s much harder for the engine to get back to producing higher power after being retarded than it is if you just let the tires spin and regain traction continuing on boost. All drag racers know to turn off traction control for better times and it looks like they used it here to beat the c300 wit the Audi and BMW. Maybe an oversight and not purposely done.
First time I have seen your guys channel. Really enjoyed that video.I still have no clue what car I want though haha.
bmw fan here...quality content,,,exterior from bmw ,interior from audi and luxury from benz.Keep up!:)
wheres the luxury in benz i wonder :-D
Bmw wins all that...
