First date with the F80 M3

I got to take an F80 DCT M3 out for a spin and snapped a few pics of it next to my e92, both cars were dirty girls. I had fun checking it out and with the exception of the sound I liked the car. I prefer the e92, that's the short and sweet of it. Anyway, here are some side by side shots.

Great pics. Yes, the F80 is nice....but I still prefer the E9X like you I thought the F80 M3 would grow on me more by now, but it hasn't. It just doesn't look ///M enough. Don't give in, keep your E92! Haha

Love the look of the 4-door F80 M3. Like an M5 but smaller.

When I put this into the F80 translate software, it reads as follows: I am a complete moron who has my head up my own ass and was completely biased against the F80 the day I was born. May the spirits have mercy on you for even having an opposing point of view.

That was the short version.

Cool side by side pics btw.

Aren't we all biased one way or another.
Pretty sure people get this right at birth.
In some places it's also cool to have YOUR own opinion.

Just saying.

The F80 in the pics is just like mine. I got to say though, I'm not a fan of the back end. Yours looks much better, although I do like the rest of the F80 (a lot). I've never owned an E92 so I can't offer anything on the comparison.

F80 looks like a giant compare to E92.
I assume F80 is roomier than E90.
