2008 BMW M3 Cabrio (E93)

“Well the Japanese engineers are taking over....... ”

thats why they dont manage how to build a v8 and still have a car in hour hands for more than a couple of hours.

Well the Japanese engineers are taking over.......

Duuuuude, thats messed up!!

I've just deleted the newly added DCT version of the car..... No need to add a new car version for the DCT/DKG gearbox.... nearly all the laptimes here are with the DCT box anyway.

I swore I would drive my e46 M3 until the wheels fell off, but that unsold e93 M3 at the dealer was discounted more every time I saw it- I finally gave in and swapped for it last week.

If y'all say it is a gay car I won't doubt you. But I would point out that for a gay car it sure as hell attracts a lot of hot chicks- go figure.

I'd love to see the 9.7 time for the cab..... it may have been using a 1ft rollout which some of the US magazine tests seem to use (which make the times quicker).

DKG/DCT adds approx 25kg to the cars weight.

damn, i just saw the picture of the 4.3 sec 0-60 and 10.7 sec 0-100 mph, thats very very impressive.

yeah the coupe has pulled a 9.2 i read it somewhere either in an article or on the internet. i wouldn't be surprised if the cabrio managed a 9.7 either, its got the power, and sure the weight is a bit high, but 9.7 is a reasonable 0-100 time for that car. how much does the dkg or dct put on the m3? i'm not sure what its called but its the f1 transmission. thanks for any helpful answers :)

no no no, the coupe has manegd a 9.2 ta 100mph and the vert has managed to get a 9.7, ill see if i can pull it up!

The weight is correct and yes the coupe is the one thats managed 0-100mph in 9.7sec

well motortrend got the m3 coupe to 60mph in 4.1

actually is HAS pulled a 4.3 second s to 60mph in 4.3 seconds and 9.7 to 100mph, as for kmh, i havent a clue, and that weight, must have ben weighed with people inside or somthing, but thats stupid.

that weight IS a bit strange, with that much torque it would never pull that 0-60 time within supercar territory... the sedan weighs 3585 lbs and even the coupe with dct is only 3670 (road and track) so i highly doubt this mercedes territory weight

Well it is a convertable and alot of cars gaine alot of wieght in becomeing a convertable.

O yeah the M3 is an excellent car, if i had tha money i would definetly get one, but i am a lil bit curious as too where they got hat 4147lbs of weight from, i have herd 3725 US spec with a full tank of gas ans liquids and all the optoins, so where does that extra 400lbs come from??

i don't see what the big fuss is about, the m3 is a great car, whether or not its a convertible. 10.6 or 10.7 sec 0-100 is very very good for a car that weighs in at 4000+ lbs. the carrera 4s and m3 are two very different cars. one is built for fast acceleration, 0-60, 0-100,1/4 mile while the other (m3) is a quick sprinter, but more of an autobahn cruiser. so whoever the anonymous douchebag talkin bout how gay an m3 convertible is, shut the fuck up and keep your damn comments to yourself.

Whats the big deal with bmw being a little slower than most sportscars but everybody knows that!!

soooo, you have a Porsche yet you cant even spell the company name? lol hahaha i HIGHLY doubt that buddy!! and it aint no 83k, its 70k..big difference.

man thats slow. theve clocked 0-100mph in 9.7!

Maybe it's a new manufacture with a 415 hp RWD coupe/convert that does 0-100 in 10.6 seconds, which is clearly "fast" unlike 10.7.

“If you have a Porsche check the badge and spell it right”
+1 :D

If you have a Porsche check the badge and spell it right

Actually no BMW is fast in a mans world, so i will stck with my PORCHE!!

I dont think carbon fiber is on your wifes list. At least it does look somewhat like a mans car with that configeration.
