Steve Sutcliffe Tests The 425hp Twin Turbo BMW M3

"This new version of the M3 is the latest in a long line of high-performance rear-drive BMWs, but it's the first M3 with a turbocharged engine. Can it live up to the pedigree of its predecessors? Steve Sutcliffe finds out."

Enjoy the video below.

Surprised/disappointed to hear the comments about the sound. I had a 335is and once I disengaged the flaps in the exhaust, it sounded so fantastic...not sure what the disconnect would be vs. this turbo 6

What a crappy review. Other than showing way, way to many power slides, he showed nothing else. The interior looks cheap and unexciting. It is what it is. Anytime a performance car review mentions "low emissions" several times while describing the motor ='s a death blow in my ears.

Mike@Renntech is an unknown quantity at this point
It would have been better if they used the twin turbo V8 from the M5 & M6
