When it comes to sports sedans, enthusiasts and automotive muggles alike can easily recognize the pinnacle of the segment"the BMW M3. It's not much of a surprise since the Bavarians have been pouring just about every ounce of their engineering prowess into the M3 since 1988 to become the benchmark. The F80 is the latest iteration of BMW maintaining the bar.
Balancing the Force
Balance is the name of BMW's game. The general premise behind the F80 is being the best all-around, top-tier mid-sized sports sedan. Since it's a BMW, they did most things right, but some compromising took place to bring balance to the force. From the outside, it looks great, a clear step above the standard 3-series without crossing into the territory of ostentatious. From the wider hips, functional vents, and extra bump on the hood to the massive brakes sporting subtle yet eye-catching blue calipers, you know you've spotted something special.
