New To me M3

Wurdalak · 04-09-2020, 01:31 AM

Hi Everyone, first time BMW owner here. I just picked up a used 2017 M3 coming from a Hellcat Charger. Let see how this goes.

I know I'm going to miss the power and sound but after 3 years of driving the Hellcat I honestly could not live with the interior anyone. One thing I noticed right off the bat the seats in the M3 are hard as a rock in comparison.

Welcome! Great color! Yes the seats are very firm. Germans do sport seats a bit different than the Americans.

I owned a 2015 challenger 392 scat pac for a VERY short time. Giant & heavy car... Hated it!

Enjoy that M3 a definite upgrade interior wise!

Congrats and welcome to the M\\\adness! Great color, I might be a little biased..

I had a Challenger SRT and it is a different beast, great in a straight line! You're getting the best of both worlds with the F80. No comparison in build quality M3 wins hands down.

Enjoy the new ride!
