BMW M3 Sedan – For the Zealots

May 5th, 2008 · 1 Comment

BMW is credited with creating the sports sedan.  The 2008 BMW M3 is the latest in a long line of fantastic M cars.  The M3 has become the benchmark for the uber-enthusiast’s sports sedan. 

If you don’t think the 300hp twin turbo 335i that can hit 60 in 5 seconds flat and cover the quarter mile in 13.6 seconds is fast enough, then BMW has a car for you.  The M3 is your car and is available in sedan flavor again.

 2008 M3

This M3 is powered by a 414hp V8.  It can hit 60 in 4.8 seconds and hits the quarter mile mark at 12.8 seconds.  The number of cars that are quicker than this 4 door is short.  And the number of cars that are quicker and actually have 4 doors is even shorter.

This car is the benchmark that all others are measured against.  It is one of the cars that  continues to prove that BMW has earned their marketing moniker of “The Ultimate Driving Machine.”  If you driven a BMW then you understand that the little blue and white propeller logo marks a car that is fun to drive.

There was a great ad in the 80’s that featured the original M3, M5 and M6, it read “of the zealots, for the zealots, by the zealots.” 

Zealots rejoice!
