Can't decide on f80 or f82!

If I decide to go with f80 it would be YMB with SS interior. F82 MW with black interior. I think f82 looks a little more sporty and sleeker but I have two kids so the f80 would be more practical. I used to have the e92 and getting the kids in and out of the back was a pain. Decisions decisions. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Do you guys think the m3 is up to par on looks with the m4? Which one would you choose?

F80, done.. you have kids.. if not get a Outback

BenchRacerYo · 09-08-2014, 07:15 PM

You have kids, why is this a question? Obviously, Ariel Atom is the answer here. Spacious backseat and good gas mileage.

Tinh2p · 09-08-2014, 07:32 PM

Maybe I'll just cut my balls off and go with a Chrysler minivan

I sense some passive aggressiveness there.

A 4 door M3 isn't exactly a minivan, sir.

YMB-M3-J2 · 09-08-2014, 07:41 PM

M3 is an amazing looking car and i dont see it as a sacrifice to go with the M3 because its a little easier with the kids...im probably biased though

l!ve · 09-08-2014, 07:43 PM

Any chance you will consider the F83?

I have 3 kids, so I have no choice, F80.
The F80 vs. F82 is a tough decision. Usually for most cars, the 4-door version looks way worse than the 2-door, but this time, both the M3 and the M4 look awesome. So, between the 2, you can't go wrong. Go with your gut. If you really can't decide, get the M3. Easier access for the kids and room for 1 more.

But I would really consider the F83.

dmk08 · 09-08-2014, 07:45 PM

Its all preference. I got more compliments on my 08 e90 than i ever have on my 11 e92. Back to a sedan for me. Not for the attention reason lol.

I don't really like the look of the f83 rear. Prob gonna pull the trigger on a f80 once this coming winter passes bc I live in nj.

Tinh2p · 09-08-2014, 07:54 PM

There's prob a post for this already but I was wondering what deals if any did you guys get on your cars? And how you went about it. I know about the rizzo method but never used it before. I built my own and optioned it out, the msrp was 77500. Did anyone get anything off msrp and how? Thanks in advance

Brosef · 09-08-2014, 07:55 PM

F80 for sure.

l!ve · 09-08-2014, 07:56 PM

Then go F80. YMB/SS will look awesome!

gtr · 09-08-2014, 07:57 PM

Get a Porsche Macan. Sporty, terrific driving feel and something I would definitely trade my M3 in if I have kids.

To answer your question F80 all the way. I don't think either cars are great looking.

Viking123 · 09-08-2014, 07:58 PM

Easy, F80 MW with black interior... SS interior with kids in the back may be a bit of maintenance

So you paid 65k+ for a car you dont think looks good?

Good point! 👍

Lynchmob6 · 09-08-2014, 08:04 PM

F80 for sure for the family!

WVUDrJay · 09-08-2014, 08:09 PM

I have three kids but this ones for me! I got an M4. We bought a used jeep wrangler unlimited for the snow and kid hauling.

consolidated · 09-08-2014, 08:11 PM

Harden the F up, check your vanity, and get a F80. If you need to feel like a man, add a Raptor. Hey you asked.

It does look good but, I feel my Boxster Spyder I had and my R8 more towards great looking.

I just feel it's a brushed up 3 or 4 series and not jaw dropping gorgeous.
