I'm sorry but thats not for you to decide. The quality in materials are there and the layout design is a personal opinion. I have no problem with the interior in 3-series and I prefer it over C-class.
Like I said earlier, I agree no car is 100% and I havent said the M3 is 100% thats why I didnt give it an overall rating.

Styling - styling is subjective but I love how the M3 looks like, therefore 5 stars
Performance - 420hp and power whenever you need it, rate it only a 4 would be stupid
Interior - the quality felt good and I like the clean and modern layout so its a five.
Quality - I had no problem during my testdrive and I can only speak for the time I spend driving the car. I cant guess the future realibility for this car therefore a five.
Recommendation - Why wouldnt I recommend this car? If you like performance cars then this is another awesome machine.

Note: I dont speak for other opinions, I can only rate it how I felt for the car. Also I cant tell others what to think becuase everyone is free to have an opinion.

Have you seen the tachy interior in the C63 AMG... Makes the beemer look more then a 55k interior to me....

Steve

Yes i have ive driven the E92 M3 for a full weekend, So i suppose i know it quite well. And IT DOES NOT feel 55kGBP. It feels exactly the same as MY07 335d. IMO it should feel special.

I am a friend of a BMW car magazine writer and having now sat in the C63 aswell it feels more upperclass and more expensive, the seats are amazing.

I know you are a BMW owner, so am i, but no need to get defensive and take things personal.

And no need to turn this thread into MB vs. BMW fight! So i please you all to stop it here and if you need to continue, there's Internal Combustion for that.

Thank you.

The black interior of the BMW M3 is a little boring... most black interiors are... The dark carmel beige colour interior which i sat in at my local dealer is simply awesome... Thats defintely a 55k + interior to me...

NB. The M5 interior is simply amazing.. sat in it aswell.. the facelift has turned an average interior into simply one of the best... I love the interior of my 530i which is an facelifted model its amazing.. But the M5 just takes it to the next level...

My point is im hoping this occurs with the 3 series facelift... make the 3 series interior simply amazing because it has potential just needs work on the details

yeah dont make it MB vs BMW debate. Its just a personal review by me

Lets just agree to disagree

Steve

it wasnt just me but OK


My mates sold his E60 M5 the interior was just normal nothing special. Now the engine.....WOW


It was a good review, i was just stating its not a 100% car.........IMO

Giannis

So you like the new M3 Just me! Good thing..

Thanks for the review. It's great and very positive

and its the third time I say this, the M3 is not 100%. I have never seen a car that is 100%.

Depends how you see it, the BMW interiors are all similar now, bar the 1series.. imo they don't look good, or sometimes even cheap in photos (especially in black trim and black leather) but they feel and look great in real life. Of course the C63 is different, you can tell by those overstated bodykits which makes it look nearly a track car, and correspondingly the interior is also as overstated as the exterior, which is opposite to the M3.
Damn i still haven't seen the new M3.. :s
