We now get to watch this progression on a clean low mileage m3. Nobody is doing this on YouTube. I’m personally excited to see it.

    I like Phil but he’s not relatable with his swap. Danny is entertaining but is more of a budget build and is focused purely for the track.
    He's basically going to take info from here and put it on YT and make money off of it.

    Ain't nothing wrong with it, but his content in general is boring unless you care about garages and setup and what the sheep's name was from where the organic chamois came from etc.

    Just take the content for what it is... Hey man...he isn't 2JZ swapping it atleast...

    Mabey the Florida guys here can show him the way.
    Looking at you Michael

    If he was 2JZ swapping it I would watch it.

    He's the type of car guy that probably talks about tire shine at car meets.

    So aka weirdo.

    While Matt at OG is boring AF, he's gonna do the same cookie cutter mods that we all have done (none of you can deny this fact, even me, none of you even try) and the internet will love it.

    The only E46 M3 builds I follow on YT is DannyDC2 and Phil Morrison from Driftworks.

    Check them out.

I'm just glad to see E46 content.. it's only going to help the spotlight the platform ... And probably values creep up more and more.

    In the end of the day I hope he keeps the car and really loves it.

    More deletes. Really don't want to give out infractions, guys. Please, when you're about to post something, ask if it's about judging a person or a thing. If it's about judging a person, don't do it.

    I really thought I was keeping it above the belt on that one

    I'm usually much more derisive.
    No, totally fair to say someone's wrong about something. Will PM you.

    Deleted some posts for personal attacks. No infractions given yet. Let’s keep it clean, folks.

    it's not an insult it's the reality of his business model. he buys a car, puts on popular mods, and documents it in order to get exposure for the products he sells. i know a lot of people that resell sneakers. they're very aware of their standing in sneaker culture.

    That's indeed his business model. We cannot discount he was a true car enthusiast before all of this. He's an OG M3post member and had a classic E92 M3 build.

    i think it's laughable you're talking about him like hes some shadetree mechanic that is scrounging together resources to finish a passion project that benefits the car community.

    This isn't what I said.

    If you're looking for clarifications on what I implied; it probably lies around Matt not having ultra niche, in-depth knowledge of 20 + platforms. The community could help him avoid common mistakes on these builds. I'm sure he'd feature NAM3 in return as I personally have with EuroConnex as I value what Obioban is doing. Forums still have a place in the automotive media landscape. This would help this community grow out of the shadows, and attract like-minded enthusiasts.

    With the way the automotive industry is going, we should be inclusive.


    he's loaded, and is clearly doing this primarily to make money, why give a business your services for free?

    If you think your knowledge is worth something of value to his business, make a pitch deck and sell your BMW M3 E46 consulting services.

    most of the enthusiasts on this forum are largely net negative in their "investment" into this platform but largely positive in their contribution to the community (diys, reviews, honest opinions).

    I guess that's a badge of honor you can wear proudly - just like the track badge. It's a "baller" argument I cannot get behind.

    you're romanticizing the wrong guy imo

    This isn't what I'm doing. I've repeatedly said I dislike his content and don't watch it. I'm simply attesting to the genuine intents Matt has to provide value to the car community in light of your "culture vulture" comment - which is inherently a judgement of his intents and his character.

    He didn't start doing this to make money initially. He started this to get out of his own head with his lifelong passion for cars; specifically Porsches and BMW M cars.

    It evolved into a business as his values resonated with many. Matt is clearly an entrepreneurial, business savvy individual. I see absolutely nothing wrong with him grabbing value for himself considering the various capital investments he has committed to this.

    There's something to be said about having skin in the game and putting yourself out there. Most of us behind aren't doing this with anonymous usernames.
