Estimated Trade-In Values for the 2008 BMW 3 Series 328i Convertible 2D range from about $1,055 to $1,455 depending on vehicle condition. Estimated Private Party Values range from about $2,465 to $3,165 depending on vehicle condition. Valid for ZIP Code 43215 through 2/25/2026.
If you’re a genuine driving enthusiast who still believes that there’s just something special about German automotive engineering, virtually any selection from the 328i and 328xi menu could be just what you’re looking for. Even at its entry level, the 3 Series package provides an engaging mix of character, quality and performance.
If you prefer a suspension tuned more towards ride comfort than control, want a rear seat with lots of legroom or need a spacious trunk, the 3 Series may be less attractive than some of its European or Japanese competitors — although the Sports Wagon does offer impressive cargo room even with the rear seat up. BMW’s iDrive integrated controller that’s included with the optional navigation system also has been criticized for its unnecessary complexity.
