The BMW discs are cast with the holes in them , and then machined finished , so are harder to crack , but still do if driven hard , just look at any hard track driven car , you don't hear much about disc problems with these cars as most are not driven by enthusiast but southern shandy drinking estate agents lol

M3's and snow don't mix , mine didn't go off the drive in the snow we had , even after it thawed my mrs phoned me half way up the street as she got stuck lol and I had to dig her out , it is crap on snow and ice.
I have a Passat TDi estate for work , thats on 19's with wide tyres , but I have put a quaiffe LSD in that as its over 200hp with bags of torque , to help with traction , and that was brilliant in the snow , I didn't get stuck anywhere

I other than when the snow was so deep no-one could get out I had no problems at all in my 2006 330d Auto. Bought bloody Snow Socks too and didn't need to use them!!

^^ true thoughI think most people buy an M3, not for the performance, but to brag to their mates "look I've got an M3"
Its a shame because these sort of people give the M3 (which in all honesty is a cracking car) and BMW in general their 'owned by *****' reputation.Theres a fella in my road whos got one. I think of him, not really as a shandy drinking estate agent, but as a pr*ck
Hes the one person in the road you dread being on his drive when walking the dogs as he keeps you for ages talking about s*ite
