OP OP! Article about the BMW M3 F80!
The BMW M3 F80 is a car that has everything to deliver maximum pleasure: manual transmission, rear-wheel drive, limited-slip differential, 400+ horsepower, and a 3.0-liter turbocharged engine. Let’s dive into its performance, dynamics, and maintenance.
Exterior
The key feature of the M3 is the flared front and rear fenders. It has splitter extensions under the front bumper, side skirts, unique mirrors, a custom spoiler, a rear diffuser, and exhaust tips.
The car is in fully stock condition, with catalytic converters and no tuning. It’s hard to find one like this nowadays.
The standard 18-inch wheels look pretty good.
Interior and Equipment
It comes with keyless entry, semi-bucket seats, and a beige interior. The side support of the seats isn’t much different from the F30, but it has the M steering wheel, eye-catching door trims, a black headliner, and ample carbon fiber accents.
In terms of equipment, it has everything you need: Harman/Kardon sound system, rearview camera, parking sensors, NBT system, and driving mode selection.
Purchase History
How was this car purchased? It’s a salvage car from the U.S. The owner was initially looking for a 3.0-liter BMW, not the M series, but a regular F10 535 or F30 335. Eventually, the choice landed on the M3 F80.
The damages included suspension issues, a slightly dented sill, but no issues with safety. They installed a new front bumper, side skirts, and worked on the suspension. The final cost was $40,000.
Maintenance
As for maintenance: oil was changed every 6-7 thousand kilometers, air filters, cabin filter, and spark plugs were replaced. Oil in the rear differential was also changed.
Repairs included clutch replacement, and brake discs and pads all around.
Driving Impressions
Driving impressions: a regular 335 can’t compare to this. The brake pedal is highly sensitive, as is the throttle response, and the handling is very precise.
The owner bought it with 60,000 km on the odometer, and now it has 123,000 km. Fuel consumption in the city is 10-11 L/100 km, and on the highway, it’s up to 10 L. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h is 6.3 seconds (manual transmission).
Conclusion
The M3 F80 is an exciting car that has lived up to all expectations. It’s versatile enough for both city driving and track outings for an enjoyable driving experience. It has a limited-slip differential and a well-balanced suspension. This car represents a perfect balance—it’s fully controlled, clear, and predictable.
