2008 BMW M3 Convertible 2D Standard Features
2008 BMW M3
KBB.com Review
If you are already a BMW 3 Series or M3 enthusiast, this latest M3 is easily the best yet. If its hefty sticker is within your reach, you’ll delight in its raw performance, racer-like handling, sophisticated electronic features and, yes, its long-established and well-deserved king-of-the-hill reputation.
If you are not a BMW worshiper and crave something more exclusive, check out the all-wheel-drive Audi RS 4 Sedan or Cabriolet and the more powerful Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG, Cadillac CTS-V (due in the Fall of 2008) and Lexus IS F sedans.
