  • I had a chance to drive my friend's Convertible (E93) 2008 BMW M3 with a 6 speed manual transmission. Barely over 20K miles on the odometer. High raving V8, rear wheel drive, wind in my hair (or hat)...what an experience! I hope you enjoy this quick clip.

    One of the few people on youtube that uses good camera angles, when driving.

    Ofcourse the E chassis code M3 is one of its kind. The sound is absolutely amazing. And especially the one of its kind “V8” motor that the Germans put in that generation M3. In 2008 this car was probably at its highest peak. Great video! And driving clips!

    Have this exact car and agree with all comments - we got ours as a weekend cruiser that we can put two car seats in. The exhaust, which is stock, sounds great. The kids love it. We have the DCT which is fun, sounds nuts on downshifts, but is not an MT. The upside is my dad can drive it without making everyone nauseous. The handling is good. It's not leaps and bounds better than our E9? wagon, which is a 6MT, and is also really fun to drive.

    I'm a little older than some of your followers, but I really liked your review. I even liked the camera angle you used. I've owned a '99 and an '03 M3, both convertibles. I'm looking to get an E46 back in my life, but the V8 is hard to ignore. I'd be good with a stock exhaust on a E93, but that's me. VERY interesting hearing your driving impressions of the E93 to your baby. Well done

      Thank you for the kind words. I really appreciate it. The convertible with the v8 and a manual is really hard to beat. Such a unique car.

      If you like cruising? Yes. For sporty excursions I say get regular E92. Although if you can swing an F32 that’s even better. More potent engine

    Ok - what was done to that exhaust? Did your buddy do the 2 or 4 pipe mod on the stock system, or is it aftermarket?
    I ask because it is total rice crispies - snap, crackle and pop - way more than my current stock e92M3. I realize that it is a convertable and you can naturally hear more, but something HAS to have been done to it. And I want it. Sounds glorious.
    I plan on modding mine this winter, and want to make sure I do it right. Thanks.

    • @TommyLGarage
      @TommyLGarage  5 лет назад +2

      Gregory Fuller Thanks for watching. I just asked him and he said as far as he’s concerned the exhaust is completely stock. He picked up the car when It was six months old and he bought it from a guy that he knew. Maybe because I was really revving it up the exhaust sounded louder? But I think anything you do to that exhaust sounds amazing. It is the best sounding M3 ever made. Period

    It's strange to me that people say you cant track a convertible. e93 is very stiff. Might not be as stiff as e92 but it is not that bad! Some more weight as well but for experience, the convertible wins easily any day. Well not on a rainy day. ;)

So wind drafts are not for me, thankfully im not tall so my head wont stick out from the car, just worried about inner cabin drafts.
