2008 BMW M3 – today’s tempter

2008 BMW M3 – today's tempter

Of all the models in the BMW line-up, the M3 has typically been the crowd favourite when it comes to performance cars.

In a feature on the series we noted: “March 1986 saw the launch of the E30 BMW M3, arguably the most iconic of all M cars. A road going version of BMW’s new Group A racing saloon was the concept behind the model. It combined the E30 3 Series two-door coupe body with a 200 horsepower, normally aspirated four-cylinder engine, close ratio manual gearbox, lightweight body panels and superb handling. It was the complete package and is still lauded today.”

This E93 is a long way down the development road from its predecessor. By now it was sporting a 4.0lt V8 claiming 309kW (414hp) and in this case runs a seven-speed sequential transmission.

It has a relatively low 60,000km on the odo and the seller indicates a significant amount of work has been done to the car. Located in the west of Brisbane, it’s on the market at $59,850.
