We compare the base model BMW 330i against the top-trim M3 CS to see if the M3 is worth the hefty price tag.
A HUGE thank you to Sam for letting us rip his awesome M3 CS! Follow him on IG http://www.instagram.com/the.m3cs

The difference is only 9 sec
My 318i is base but that is not a base model
As a third worlder, I feel bad😂
Everybody wants the fast ones, but experienced drivers want the slow ones.
What the younger people don’t understand is that driving fun is accomplished by taking a car to it’s limits. You cannot take a modern high performance car to it’s limits on public roads. They are just too fast. All you can do is punch the throttle once in awhile. For those that truely enjoy driving, you want a car with low limits that feels like you’re going faster than you are.
You want a car you can redline 100 times in 10 minutes on public roads. In a modern m3, you can see redline maybe 3-4 times in 10 minutes.
You want a car that when the offramp recommends 30mph, taking it at 50mph is insane fun. An m3 would need to take it at 80mph.
Easy nobody will for your upgrades on your car but they will pay for a badeg
The cheapest BMW 3 series is a 2013 328i
In thailand m3cs cost at 16 million Baht😂😂😂
Two things to go by in the car guy world. 1. Never buy a car off first impressions alone. 2. Never buy a car you are always scared will break, not because of inconvenience but because of repair bill anxiety
330i is base trim.? What about the 318? Or 320, or even the 316
Can you please make a video of 430i gran coupe vs M4?
You cant compare this to a Hyundai or Toyota … even if they have more feature you cannot compare gimmicks for gimmicks with a BMW there is other important structural and mechanical areas where that money went including the engine. You can get a ferrari without lane assist because money is spent elsewhere
330 is the cheapes in US ? Wow
340i vs base m3 was a better comparisson
a 330i is not a base model. If we're talking base, a 318i fits the description
320d lol
330i 2025 is what i just got and the only main issues is how quiet it is – and lack of feedback on anything lol
Isn’t the screen good because you would have to look down at the buttons anyways
1:56 just hang out in San Francisco plenty of knobs to touch and be touched. If thats your thing don't forget to drive a jeep wrangler
Sports betting ads make me want to watch a bit less
330i as a poverty spec is wild. If 330i is poverty, then what is 320i and 318i??? 😭
“Spoiled rich kid car”. Yup. Always. Great point about the 18” wheels. Less curb rash, slightly faster acceleration. BMW badge makes up for better options from Toyota, Hyundai, and Acura. lol. Great comparison.Yup, I’ve had a couple of 80K plus cars and you’re right about the stress of daily driving relatively expensive cars. It can be nerve wracking. Whereas any sub 50K is much more relaxing. Props to the track driver. Brave dude driving like a maniac while driving relatively tall sedans.
Why not 318d?
44k? I would rather have a fully opt mini 4 door s jcw for 40k
330 is not base model 318i is or 320 in America
I thought cheapest 3 series is the 316i or 318i
So happy with my 2018 bmw, all the knobs and screens! Best of both worlds
I sold my F30 328i a year ago after having it 7 years and 100k miles. I actually still miss it and only sold to my brother in law’s brother who needed a car after getting totaled and funding the last of my wedding.
Just saying that before this huge screen and thefacelift, BMW had all the buttons and they were very high-quality with an aluminum cover 🙂 Adaptive cruise control is an extra charge, as are every different handle, light, seat, material, etc. I have 2021 318i and its still quite enjoyable everyday car.
