While the M3's interior rather dull, and with black I'd say things feel more high class in standard models, but I guess M3 isn't a gadgets car, you don't buy one because you like how it looks, but how it feels, it really feels amazing to be in one.

It indeed feels special being inside one but more differentiation from other E92 is always welcomed,my biggest issue with the interior is the shifter and the area surrounding it..looks so plain and feels like something is missing!

Thanks Guibo, this is basically the gist of what I was trying to explain. BMW already does offer some sweet looking shifters (optional) for the rest of the 3 series range. However, the M3 is range topper in the 3 series segment, surely it should get some sort of 'special' treatment. This is certainly one department where BMW could learn alot from Audi.

Come on. The new M3 has rev lights too. And imo the 3er has never had an interior as good as today.
Just wait untill you see the M3 Individual

Tarek

^Individual is another case,any car can look fantastic with personal customization,M3 should have been more upscale than other E92 as standard

klier

It is no less upscale from regular models than C63 is from a C220

Tarek

There's some truth in what u r saying but it's much more visible in M3's case!

Indeed, it should have some sort of frame or edging. Anything, the simplest thing would do.

klier

Yeah, I suppose you guys are right. It looks a little plain right now. Barren. BMW probably didn't think of the M DCT gearbox when the interior of the car was designed

It doesn't matter though, you completely forget about the looks when you feel the way it works

dr Dunkel

Yeah, thats right, only girlies and learner drivers look at the stick when driving...
