    Yeh all E92s have seatbelt handover.

    Didn't consider Nissan no, wanted something subtle enough, an everyday car. GT-R is an amazing machine but just doesn't appeal to me as an overall car. Mean that in the same way as I'm sure plenty of people don't like M3s!

    Fair enough, actually I remembered now, someone mentioned in a review that while GT-R was a great track car is was a pretty bad everyday car.

    So, yea M3 was the best choice.

    Semi. They're the standard M3 tyres though.

    First off, Congrats Mark and well wear. A truly sporty and involving car.
    Do you find the ride much different from your old car, on normal everyday driving with the semi slicks?
    Just curious?

    Far, far better. Using the same roads pretty much everyday and it's an awful lot better.

    Between putting run flats onto all of their non M cars, and giving Chris Bangle a carte blanche in the design studio BMW did a lot of harm to themselves over the last few years.

    It's crazy that the most hardcore car in the range is the most comfortable!

    Have BMW sales not dramatically increased since Mr Bangle's styling was introduced? - He may not have got it right 100% of the time, but I think alot of his designs will be looked back on as being classics

    The run flat's are not the most comfortable, but you can remove them and they are handy when you do get a flat.

    One thing I don't like about the E90/92 M3 is the cheap plastic pedals.

    I'm amazed that they aren't aluminium or stainless steel. You would think for the price you are paying that they would be in some way different from a bog standard 3 Series.
