Is your M3/M4 a daily driver?

DocL · 08-27-2019, 01:56 PM

Mine is my daily driver and I use it to Uber my kids around on the weekends. I really wasn't sure getting a 6spd manual was going to be a good idea, however the clutch and shift mechanism are so smooth that I have no regrets.

ApexM4CS · 08-27-2019, 04:59 PM

Yup! 10 miles each way.

DadVibes · 08-27-2019, 05:25 PM

It's my daily driver year around. Granted, I work from home full time so all the miles are "fun" miles (averaging ~150-200/week). It will get driven in the snow, but I generally avoid driving during major storms, simply due to terrible drivers on the roads around here.

canukgtp · 08-28-2019, 06:12 AM

It's my daily driver about 8 months a year, can't bring myself to driving it through Canadian winters...my Sierra handles that so much better.

m4dbimmer · 08-28-2019, 12:25 PM

Yes, and it rattles more ever day because of it. 😔

kolosy · 08-28-2019, 02:49 PM

It's the only car my wife and I have. Live in the city, so we don't need a car to commute - do about 5k miles per year. Definitely drive it in the winter - have a set of winter wheels stacked in the garage.

Daily driver, with an occasional trip to Home Depot busing supplies

Yes2m3cs · 08-29-2019, 07:32 AM

My M4 wasn't but my CS is

Sedan_Clan · 08-30-2019, 03:57 AM

I used to daily my '15 YMB ///M4. When I bought my '17 Nardo ///M4, I had already purchased a commuter car. Three years later and I only have 13,500 miles on my current ///M4.

satx_yas · 08-30-2019, 08:07 AM

2018 BMW M3CS 6 miles each way!

sicck_m4 · 08-31-2019, 07:20 AM

14 miles each way to work on the Vegas strip.

brocurls · 08-31-2019, 09:53 AM

Sacrifice my Mazda as the daily.

No way I'd take the M4 on I-95 in and out of Philly for my work commute.

bullet123 · 09-01-2019, 10:35 AM

Daily driver and baby hauler!

Prossx · 09-01-2019, 09:28 PM

Work commuting, Costco run, grocery getting, MTB hauling DDer. All year, all the time (except major massive snow storms of course).

Vegetable · 09-01-2019, 11:33 PM

I couldn't think of a better DD than my M4. 40,000 Miles in 10 months, no issues, good gas, fun as hell (especially with BM3). This is the perfect DD for those who know that life is short and ain't got no time for a lesser DD.

Until your shitty co-worker with the F250 opens his door at 60mph into the side of your car, and you come to the forum bitchin' about people having no respect, small parking spaces and asking for a good body shop.

Not you specifically. I was speaking in generalities.

Sometimes.. depends on the mood have to show love to the other BMW motors

karlskry · 09-10-2019, 10:56 AM

Every day, rain or shine w/ a baby seat in the back! a 4 door was the only way i could justify something fun.

EricVR4 · 09-11-2019, 06:03 AM

Just picked it up this past Friday but yep, mine is my daily. I love that the car is basically Jekyll/Hyde between efficient/comfort and sport/sport+ settings. Makes it easy to be a daily
