2008 BMW M3 Sedan 4D Depreciation
Annual Depreciation is an estimation of what your vehicle's value might be over time based on an average of similar vehicles. Estimations are calculated by comparing Kelley Blue Book Private Party Values of vehicles similar to yours over time, as well as forecasts from Manheim Auction data comparing current and projected auction values against current Kelley Blue Book Private Party and Trade-In Values. This is not a guarantee of actual depreciation. Local weather conditions, market factors and driver performance will also impact your vehicle's actual depreciation.

2008 BMW M3 Sedan 4D 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.
