2001 BMW M3 review from North America
"Tight, fast, exhilarating"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Usually things for a performance car, but nothing monumental. Timing valve; oil leak.
General comments?
Amazing handling, acceleration... all of it! I loved this car.
Because of the miles I purchased a 335i Twin Turbo. Really nice... but there is something about a M3 you just cannot shake.
