M2Crew · 05-22-2008, 01:30 AM

A whole lotta magazine racing going on in that article... did they actually drive it?

Big Windy · 05-22-2008, 02:21 AM

"I've just test-driven the 08 M3 Coupe."

Pretty sure that means they drove it.

Not a bad read. But -

"...It can operate as a five-speed automatic... "

Oops.

Hammer · 05-22-2008, 09:55 AM

... some bad misstakes, but still nice to read :thumbup:

Reedomn · 05-22-2008, 10:03 AM

Who really needs the owners manual to operate the idrive???? IMO it is great!

E90330iS · 05-22-2008, 11:35 AM

lol @ article

TheBry · 05-22-2008, 01:54 PM

Although it's always nice to read good things about the M3, fluff pieces like this (complete with technical errors) seem gratuitous to me. The writer may have driven the car, but it's clear his heart wasn't into it -- I mean, come on... he'd rather be driving a 328i (228i [sic])?.
