Why would you need to modify an M3?

My base F90 M5 did 2.9 0-60... Stock. Sooooo. Like another poster said, stop comparing to M models. M340 put up impressive numbers and that's that. On another hand, 118 is kinda slow in the quarter.

Lol at all the people saying this is on par with G80 and F90, maybe for 0-60 it`s "kinda" there.
But then again, M and M perf. cars are all about 0-60 to some people it seems. Like there`s just nothing more to it.

I was in one of the threads during F80 M3 launch and people were swearing up and down that it'll be faster than F10 M5 stock v stock. lol. I guess this happens all the time.

i really dont understand where the bad mood is comming from. everybody has his choice. the m3 is a fabolous beast... i know that. but i need a more comfy daily with extra power. so when someone ask me in person, i would say who needs a m3. i am not shit talking about the m3. the m3 is next level. but not for me, because of less comfort. not a good daily when you drive long diatances like me. when it only comes to power... the m3 will put this m340 in his pocket. so relax... and yes, thats not my car. never said its mine. just shared because i thought people are interested like me. isnt a forum about sharing?! but no worries dude... i have my own m340i! dont need someones car to declare as my own...
i shared the whole insta link. everybody can see who posted the video. you can see his, name and picture... how stupid is this discusion?!

So is the extra $60k. Twice the price, have at it.
More like $20k. M5s are selling all day long for $100k.

The M340xi is more comfortable suspension wise. The trade off is huge though as far as turn in, handling, discernable weight differences etc.

But I understand where you are coming from. I test drove it quite a few times when I traded in my F80 m3 for an M2 competition.

I had a 340i. But I wanted a sportier car. I asked myself what I would be missing by upgrading to a real M car:

Front and side camera
Soft suspension
Softer seats
Noise dampening?
Quiet exhaust
Higher ride height

One by one I all but eliminated these excuses:

Front and side camera - how often am I backing into and out of a parking spot?
Soft suspension - most people lower their car anyway. Why would this be an argument for a non-M car?
Softer seats - I found that the F80 seats are actually just as or more comfortable. I like the side bolsters.
Noise dampening - turn the radio up and it doesn't matter.
Quiet exhaust - I wanted an MPE anyway so this doesn't matter
Higher ride height - got/want suspension anyway so this doesn't matter.

I took that guys M3 comment as more - "holy shit, imagine how fast the next gen (g8x) is gonna be!"

It's so strange to me that as expected, the new generation of cars are faster than current generation cars, yet we all marvel at it at every new gen of cars, lol... But why is it suddenly - "fuck M3 !! Fuck M5!!!" Shit makes no sense to me... I'm pretty sure if given a choice of a free 340 tuned or a M3, we know which direction you're going to go...

So much shit talking for a car and tune and mods that aren't even yours, lol...
Relax and go take a walk you're reading way too far into it. Fuck m3, m5? Who said that?

well... it doesnt matter to you dude. everbody has another subjective feeling about all the things you said. i had the previos m3 for a weekend.
in my opinion...
sound was great! not too load for short trips. but i do 100km everyday. that is too much in my case. i know that this is gonna annoy me after a while.
the seats... they are great. no problems here.
the suspension... well that is too much for me as a daily. for a weekend run on twisties great. and i can go on and seperate my thoughts further...

what is too stiff for me may be fine for you and vice versa

for me... a father with kids... i have different expectations.
i never wanted to talk the m3 bad. i am just talking from my own perspective.

I don't understand how it's less comfortable. I never got into an M version of anything and felt less comfortable. I daily my m2 and m3 and I don't think I'm missing anything except gas milage. The real horrible roads here suck in any car, nothing is going to change that.

yes dude. i agree. i nevwr said something like that to anybody.
my words "who needs a m3" was directed to all the m340i driver.
wanted to express how fast it is. not directed to the m3 driver and say how bad a m3 is


i am really curious at this point...
what the hell is interpreted here in a single sentence?
is that me and my language barrier or is here a bad mood?

I'm being ridiculed for sharing a video?
