Replaced an older BMW with this one. Big step up in fuel economy; I'd like a little more rear headroom.

2026 BMW M3 review
BMW M3: a class leader on the details. Illustrative review
8.8/10 OffLot expert score
The 2026 BMW M3 sits near the top of its class. Good trunk for the footprint; comfortable front seats on long trips. Road noise on coarse pavement and base engine feels adequate, not quick, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $78,000, it lines up with most direct rivals.

Owner reviews · 4.3 of 5 from 3 owners
The fuel economy is the standout. My only gripe is road noise on the highway, which I knew going in.
Bought it for the a long commute and it has handled everything so far. Fuel economy has been close to the sticker in mixed driving.
