Great video

Adamr916 · 06-23-2015, 03:06 PM

Watched this earlier, it was a good video for something a little more down to earth than what he normally reviews. His RS6 Avant/CLS63 AMG Shooting Brake is one of my more favorite ones just because if they had them in the states, I would be the first person to order the RS6 Avant

LordNathanD · 06-24-2015, 07:58 AM

good video - Chris Harris is a legend

David9962000 · 06-24-2015, 06:09 PM

Oops, 140 MPH in Belgium, Lol...

Wrong. You would be the first person in line behind me.

Great video though. Nice to see him in something so buttoned down, and reasonably priced.

great vid!

Here is a pic of Chris Harris with what could definitely be described as an "O" face while driving a hyper car. So......

dbonline · 06-25-2015, 08:30 AM

I totally agree !
Check how much fun I had with a stock E90 320d on the Nürburgring:

I think it can apply to any 3 series these days, it's a great overall package for daily driving needs.

Whats the problem? I do that everyday

Bols · 06-25-2015, 09:34 AM

Just saw it yesterday, love his reviews! +1 on the speed in Belgium lol.. max limit is at times waay below sensible speed!

rr006rbc · 06-25-2015, 10:04 AM

Definitely one of the best guys that does reviews for cars nowadays. And he's right..no one NEEDS an M3. But I definitely LIKE them and want them lol so I do.

Peertwelve · 06-25-2015, 10:05 AM

What are the chances he replaces Clarkson on Top Gear?

TheBingoBalls · 06-25-2015, 10:09 AM

Love this review and it's refreshing to get reviews on the volume/entry models. While I appreciate the AMG's and M cars of the world, I know I would never come close to extracting the performance from these cars so it's not something I would consider if I were looking for a car.

I find that the europeans who do these reviews on these types of cars are more open-minded in contrast to americans who will do a review but you get a sense that it's not worth it to them, just go for a 335 or whatever top spec/trim car is available.

M3ichael · 06-25-2015, 10:28 AM

Great review and video.

Diver · 06-25-2015, 10:44 AM

We can't get this exact model in the US. It is either go up in price and equipment to a 328d, or get the affordable 320i. Considering high diesel prices in the US, driving around in a relatively efficient petrol car isn't so bad. Besides, it is a way to get into a BMW at a price point a lot of people can afford.

JoshB25 · 06-25-2015, 10:57 AM

Great vid, proud to own a 4cyl diesel F30! Best car I've ever owned!

Actually our 328d, is the 320d in Europe. The naming convention doesn't reflect the engine size. It's all a marketing thing and both cars use the same 2.0 turbo diesel.

That would be great, but they already named JC's replacement...

swagon · 06-25-2015, 11:23 AM

330d.

The end.

Nice video review. "Practical Car" seems to resonate in this video... :-)
