Seems like its very dependent on the are you live in. M3's are very common in sofla and go largely unnoticed. They dont really stand out when there are plenty of Ferrari's, lambos, etc everywhere you turn.

Not so often, but i'm rarely places where people get the opportunity to say something. It's always in the back of the parking lot
Dealer had some compliments on it this weekend.

Get compliments once in a while. Bay area doesn't have too many nice cars but even when you do see them, most of the people have no idea about em. Out of 100% comments I do get - 70% are frm guys and 30% frm girls. End of the day, its me who stares at the car the most! Haha.

Surprisingly, even now 5 years after launch in the UK, mine gets lots of attention. I think the Mineral White Comp Pack really suits the E92 shape and also shows off the fact that it is an M3, with the carbon roof.
This is around London, where M3s are far from rare. I have had people stop next to me at traffic lights and lean out of their car almost as if ready to lick the side. In slow moving traffic loads of grins and thumbs ups. Regrettably almost always from guys. My sister in law said it sounded fantastic when I overtook her, though. She is one of those all too rare women who loves cars. |

I live in S. Cali and there are quite a few M3s and I still get a ton of compliments on the car. The way it sounds and looks. Then again MR is a looker along with the ZCP package and +1 tires, see my sig.

I live Charlotte NC...there are quite a number of M3s, so it's no biggie driving one. Plus there are lots of more exotics here too(Lambos, ferarri 458s, bentleys, masers, 911 turbos...). That said, I alway enjoy driving my M3 and it remains a special car to me as it should be to other M3 owners

Tonight on the other hand I was in the Chik Fil A drive through and the young lady said "I love your car!". So it has happened to me once now.
