Default M3 Owners ?
Thinking of changing my scoob for an M3.

Any M3 owners here that can advise what MPG you actually achieve. Just wondering how it compares to my Sti.

Cheers!

Do it, you wont regret it.

I am averaging between 28.5 - 31 MPG.

I absolutely love my car. Mine is an E46 M3 Coupe.

Went from the P1 to an E46 M3 conv - absolutely no regrets at all!

Fuel consumption? Absolutely no idea Just drive it til it needs filling up!

I also went from a P1 to E46 M3 Conv - normal running around getting 19-21, and on a run around 24-25. Never seen anything above that, and on more spirited runs, down to low - mid teens
