montreal red · 12-16-2009, 03:45 PM

nice vid!

JDy80 · 12-16-2009, 04:27 PM

Yaht-tah zehh!!! Love those best motoring guys.

Mr.Metak2you · 12-16-2009, 04:49 PM

I actually haven't seen this yet, NICE! And where did they get that homeless guy(Naoki Hattori) to test the ISF? JK

All in all, I still wouldn't mind owning an ISF.

KANdaddy · 12-16-2009, 04:53 PM

Only confirms what I have known to be true all along.

ISF = Epic Fayle

A perfect comparo for the M3 haters. Many don't get why the M3 gets so much praise.

This video a fantastic review of what makes the M3 such a great drivers car.

BMW750 · 12-16-2009, 06:22 PM

cant compare a is-f to the beast. I love japanese narration, they have the coolest expressions. The extra cam on the foot is so sick. Cool video

M3twins · 12-16-2009, 06:38 PM

Great video and very objective review. I disagree that the 6MT is a shortcoming in the ///M. I'd take the ISF tranny over the DCT any day or just a good old 6MT. I may change my mind once my dealer actually updates the software in my DCT, but I doubt it. Of course, overall the M3 is a much better driving car (I've owned both).

"2007" M3?

Fail.

gthirtyfizle · 12-16-2009, 08:19 PM

Love it.... They shold have had the C63 in there as well.

330CIZHP · 12-16-2009, 09:39 PM

It is amazing how the engine was so happy staying constantly between 7000 rpm and 8400 rpm all the time without breaking a sweat as he drove through the winding roads. What a beautiful engine.

I guess, his smile and yelling while driving the M3 said it all.

I finally managed to watch this loooooong aZZ vid!

Green///Hell · 12-17-2009, 01:09 AM

Video is actually good, its just watching through the IS-F part felt like it dragged on forever

michaeldorian · 12-17-2009, 01:21 AM

Great video! Lesson learned? Don't be scared of the rev.

KonigsTiger · 12-17-2009, 01:50 AM

Actually not very surprised but for sure found it very entertaining.

M3 vert · 12-19-2009, 11:46 PM

Very Nice, infact I wasnt surprised because Road and Track did a battle of these cars along with the Corvette, Nissan 370Z etc. and the M3 won the best drift car!

sorry if this is dumb but how do you change the steering?? it said "any setting" i know how to change from M,dsc on, dsc off, power, sport, sport plus, susp, normal, sport etc but where is there a button to change steering?? or is that just on non usa models?? my car is loaded and i have all packages but don't see any steering buttons

thanks

330CIZHP · 12-20-2009, 04:17 PM

Yes it is a servotronic steering settting in the computer. It also depends if you got this option as part of the option packages. In short, yes this option is available globally.
