Unbelievable

You think you're buying an outstanding vehicle until you actually take ownership. BMW goes above and beyond allowing for just about every little adjustment possible. If you want cargo room or great gas mileage don't buy this vehicle. If you want the driving experience of a lifetime this is the car for you. It sounds like a race car, drives like a race car, brakes like a race car and feels like a race car, BUT you can adjust the power, suspension and comfort levels to your liking. There really aren't enough words in this section to describe this vehicle.
This car is a BEAST!!!

I had an '02 E46 M3 before getting my new '09 E90 M3. These cars are quite different in their personality, but both are great. The E46 actually feels more like a sports car while the E90 feels more like a grand touring car. The power from the E90's V8 is amazing and almost effortless. I ordered the M-DCT transmission and am absolutely amazed. The shifts are super quick and super smooth. It feels like the shifts from BMW's auto transmissions. While I tend to be a sporty driver, I have to admit the M- DCT tranny is so good, I often leave it in full auto mode. All in all, I love it!

The Only V8 M3 Coupe

2009 BMW M3 2dr Coupe (4.0L 8cyl 6M)

I bought the 2009 M3 Coupe with a little over 28K miles on it in 2021. It has the 414HP high revving V8 engine that was used in the E90 and E92 M3. It has the DCT transmission and adjustable suspension and has a tan leather interior with the body being Aspen White. It's a very nice color combination and gets allot of attention still being 15 years old. As far as performance the car can transform itself from a family coupe to a race car in seconds. Put it in M mode and paddle shift at 8,000 RPM's and you had better be prepared for some pretty hard to believe speed and acceleration. As far as handling it can be set to mirror my C5 Corvette which is pretty impressive. Brakes are outstanding as well. There are numerous concerns on You Tube about engine issues that had me concerned about buying the car but after two and a half years of ownership I have to say the car has been a pleasure to drive and very reliable. Maintenance can be self preformed if you are inclined and will save you allot of cost. The only faults I have of the car is premium fuel and no better than 21MPG on freeway driving due to lack of an overdrive. 70 MPH is still close to 3,000 RPM. And the engine doesn't have an oil dipstick which still blows my mind. Plusses are outstanding performance and solid feel. Zero oil usage in 5,000 mile intervals and no oil dripping in 15 years of service. Very comfortable seats and gauges and interior components are very high quality and what you would expect for an $80K car in 2009. If you buy one 2010 and older make sure rod bearings were changed at 60K. If not plan on doing it at a cost of about $5K. Larry Hunt

Living in S.Florida and having driven my interlagos blue e39 m5 for 7 yrs with awe and no complaints; I decided to add a younger sibling,an interlagos blue m3 convertible! Let me say this emphatically, "The m3 convertible is an absolutely "FUNTASTIC" piece of automotive creation to drive!" For those concerned by the critics comparisons to the m3 coupe, have no worries, the two are just different animals! Here in the m3 convertible you have the ultimate everyday "Chameleon". Top up you basically have the coupe's at 98% equivalence, top down its a head turning topless super car! If you are not a race track junkie and live in warm climes this car cannot be beaten at its price point. Thanks M!!
Best car for the money

All Porsche, Ferrari, Maserati owners need to drive an M3 and see that you have wasted your money on the car you chose. The M3 is all the car you could ever want without going straight race car. BMW technology is exactly what they advertise, the ultimate driving machine
