I know it s not an m car on an amg or an rs, but i believe the 3er could profit from some meaner brakes. just my 2 sheckels. |
that reminds me of my old e90. It had more bite early on. Issue is at high speeds it is really hard to shed off just a little speed cause the breaks bite harder at first even with the slightest touch. Same at very low speeds when approaching cars stopped at intersection, I found the e90 to bite too hard.
I like the feel of the f30, not too touchy but with a firm press the car will shed off speed in no time, you start worrying if the car behind you would really slow down quickly not to hit you.
