2008 BMW M3 or other family member and may also say that it broke the last 70 round of take a glass of Scarlett Johansson. In other words, would be impressed and jealous.
For the uninitiated, M badge on the back of a Bummer means that the automaker reported in motorsports. This shot of the home team performance setting a specific model of BMW (in this case, the Series Coupe 3), not only to the next level, but in the stratosphere. With the 2008 BMW M3 is all there - burning acceleration, steering and brakes, which almost defy physics and controls are exactly the feeling and the right to have them, so the car is an extension of your body.
But does that mean in practice, one may wonder if the M3 is worth almost $ 17,000 more than the 335i coupe very capable. The latter is certainly fast enough (sprints to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds and a blistering), treats a large and offers a less aggressive. For most people, so the answer is no - are sufficiently numb to the livability and overall performance of the 335i.
But look at the M3 is a different way. As a practical coupe, four-passenger happens to beat the performance of a car of great prestige (and high priced) sports, for example, the Porsche 911 Carrera S, BMW M3 Coupe 2008 starts to look like a real bargain .
Performance
BMW M3 breaks tradition by snubbing recent six cylinders. With its main rivals in the super sports coupe / sedan class - Audi RS4 and S5, and Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG - V8 now packing under the hood, BMW certainly does not want to be caught by two cylinders. And now that the "regular" 3 Series (335i, the particular) is to have a RIP-breathing 300-hp twin-turbo 6-cylinder, the mandatory update looked like a V8.
With 414 horsepower and a red line in excess of 8 Grand, M3 V8 is a thriller that will sharpen their ears back in tip soft, strong of 3,000 revolutions per minute, rpm redline to 8400. The action six-speed manual shift is strong and accurate, with less found by the feeling of a little rubber on the previous generation M3. With its strong resistance to the action and progressive, the coupling is exactly what one would expect in a sports car - on the hard drive, you feel good, while in the city is not so stiff that it feels like to see (left) in the leg press, the gym.
In the line of 2008 was the BMW M3's 0-60 mph in just 4.3 seconds and the shot went through the quarter mile in 12.7 seconds. His ability to stop was just as impressive. M3 brakes easily modulated confidence lasted only 100 meters to stop from 60 mph - the shortest distance that we have registered so far.
Pry swept away from the sheet and the belt in the driver's seat and the M3 will be even better. Pushed hard on a deserted strip of asphalt, the M3 with its own light, with both car and driver to stop at a slot at a speed you want, and his best friend was the judge of transport. Always a strong point in a Bummer, the wheel almost perfectly in the weighting of precision and feeling. The hallmark of the information is still there, though not as tactile as the previous generation M3. Factor in an excellent chassis balance and tire grip amazing, and the M3 makes good drivers feel great, and great drivers want a racetrack in your backyard.
The other 90 percent of the time when you enter the real world of potholes and commuter traffic is damper control M3 optional three-way Rollovers (Comfort, Normal and Sport) is a good feature to have. When set to comfort it offers a solid ride, but hard is not noticeably more rigid normal (more like a sports car), and sport is hard and stiff for best song of the day. Still, it's a good bet that many would be an even softer setting for rough pavement in the city and on the road complies with appreciation.
What mpg fuel consumption in the other reality that is an average of 15.6, against the EPA estimates of 14 city/20 highway and 16 combined. We make a couple of miles per gallon better to do, given our proximity to roads and deserted our staff throat heavy feet.
Comfort
As expected, the strongest front seat covers aggressive in maintaining an on-site, while thin strips on a road full of curves. And thanks to the many adjustments that have wings and thigh-support, are also very comfortable and supportive on long drives from one state to another. The rear seat for two people is actually a pair of adults. We took our 6-foot-3 and 5 feet 5 employees rotate seating positions, with one in the driver's seat and the other behind, and in both cases, everyone had enough space and support.
At speed on the motorway, the M3 is very low wind noise, but unfortunately that is sent through the roar of the tires with the kind permission of the sport of high performance tires Michelin Pilot compensated. Remember that our car had the optional 19-inch wheels and rubber, the 18-year rule may be better in this regard.
Function
In typical BMW (which favors thin roof pillars and plenty of glass); the M3 provides a clear visual field. The cabin also offers clear and intelligent instrumentation in the tachometer red line moving (which starts lower, around 6,000 rpm when the engine is cold and gradually rises to 8,400 rpm when the engine heated) is useful for lovers of the core with the hardware. Our objections are BMW Art is old, so that with time and again touch the fans speed down to turn off the climate control system and the use of unnecessarily complex multifunction drive controller that operates the optional navigation system. Numerous performances personal settings (M Drive) may also confuse some - read the manual thickness is a necessity.
Credit is a measure of practicality is unexpected, M3 rear seat not only 60/40-split-folding design, but also has a trunk to carry long objects step that, while allowing four passengers. The trunk has a capacity of 11.1 cubic feet, rather small, but fully usable thanks to its square.
Design / Fit and finish
In addition to the expected performance improvements and handling, the M3 coupe a tasteful amount of eye candy. Most striking is the carbon fiber roof that lights the car and fell on his approach to optimize handling. The functional side vents, power bulge hood, front and rear bumpers, quad tailpipes and exclusive wheels also serve to increase the surprise factor and the 2008 BMW M3 separating from their brethren of the increasingly ubiquitous series 3.
Interior M3 is quite simple, as to save the aluminum finishing touch (in the premium package), though the materials and workmanship are excellent. Who is looking for a luxurious, choose dark wood paneling instead of aluminum, provided they opt for the Premium Package.
Who is this vehicle
Although the M3 335i brother has all the features most fans can only hope is the edge element, the idea of driving a practical four-seat coupe, the pain of a series of prestigious sports cars to enjoy the M3 costs are for recording money well spent.
