E92 M3 brakes?
Discussion
Hi all. Was over at my local BMW dealer y'day and saw/ sat in the new M3. Stunning, and got me running home to my calculator to see how I could make it work.
BUT have just seen the Autocar internet vid on it and Chris Harris has a rather worrying moment when his brake pedal goes all mushy... Surely on a £50k+ car this shouldn't happen? I know M brakes have had this reputation, but hoped it would be resolved by now. What do any owners out there think? Are they ever a problem? Seems to me I'd be better off buying an E46 M3 CSL with the usual brake upgrade and saving £20k at the same time. Having sat in the E92 it is (to my mind) a much smarter place to be, but is it worth a £20k premium whilst always knowing the brakes aren't that much cop...?
