Pros: Best handiling, best speed, best everything
Cons: not luxorious, no arm rests,
you can get a ferrari for a 150,000 dollars and the skid plate turning is 0.92 gs, however why not get an m3 it also has .92 and its much more reliable, I own a m3 sedan 1997 and its a total race car in disguise. it has 33,000 miles and has no...

Pros: Great performance
Cons: Expensive wear-and-tear items
I've been driving a 1997 M3 for a little over 3 years now. I bought the car because, well, because I took one for a test drive. As you've probably heard, it's a fantastic car to drive.
Basically everything about the performance is...

Pros: Handling, speed, comfort, style
Cons: price and insurance rates
I have always had BMWs, starting with my first 2002 when I turned 16. I then went to 323ix (four wheel drive for Denver snow) and now have my absolute favorite, my canary yellow M3. What a car! It fits me perfectly. Everything is in perfect reach, I can...

Pros: Good Styling, Powerful, Fun to Drive, Overall perfect
Cons: Cramp rear seating, moderately expensive
I was changing careers so my old vehicle a '94 Toyota pick-up truck didn't suit the image I needed. I made my move into the Real estate arena and needed almost a tool to get me in the door steps. I chose the M3. This car wasn't foreign to me since my...

Pros: Handling is among the very best, if not the best
Cons: Needs a 6th gear for a highway cruising
Amazing overall balance. The designers of this car have their fundamentals straight. Even the interior ergonomics affirm this as the dash is angle toward the driver (a hallmark stamp of all BMWs). This car is about the art of driving. It has...

Pros: Handling and performance
Cons: Suspension is so tight the ride is a bit bumpy
I have a 97 M3 that I've owned for a year. (37K Miles now).
The first few weeks you own this car, it messes with your head. Every time you drive it, you realize more and more just how incredible the car handles.
In May '99 I took it in an...

Pros: Fast, styling, handling, It's a BMW
Cons: Terrible in the snow
The Bottom Line: Don't miss this car!!
Just picked up a '97 coupe with 60K miles for $18,500. No repairs to speak of. With the new E46 M3 coming out in 2001, the price on the older E36 (1995-99) has fallen a bit. Now the only thing you have to worry about is how much it costs to insure one...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: damn fine car for the money
Cons: the door panels fail, and the ignition switch brakes
The Bottom Line: For a 10yr old car, I don't think I could have bought better, for even twice the money.
I expected to read complaints about the m3, but instead I read good reviews. To me I've had over 300 cars, from 70's hotrods to 60 bmw's. For the money I can't find anything better, It's like owing a cheap Ferrari, no brag just fact. The m3 handles like ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Acceleration, Image, Handling, Braking, Suspension, Driver comfort, climate controls
Cons: Price
The Bottom Line: The M3 is a driver's car. It's built for the thrill of driving. Those who prefer to drive boats need not apply.
The BMW M3 is truly a driver's car. Everything about, from the seat to the climate controls, tells you it is somehow tailored to being a "driver's car."
Here's my usual breakup for a car review.
The Drive:
This car simply...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Fun to drive, handles well in heavy rain, deceiving appearance, and it's a guy magnet
Cons: Governors
The Bottom Line: This car has exceeded my expectations and is the reason people get on lists years before the new models are delivered.
When my husband and I were looking into purchasing a new vehicle, we stopped by our local BMW dealership. He was convinced that I would prefer the luxury of a 5 or 7 series over the M series (which was his preference). After test driving 3 different...

Pros: handles very good
Cons: the heated seats can get too warm
The Bottom Line: this is a very good high performance street car
Although I am only 17, I have had the chance to drive and autocross an M3. I really like them, I want a new 2001 when I get the $65,000. This car(1997) handles very well, and it responds well to quick adjustments and quick steering patterns used for...

I have a bright red 1997 BMW M3 4-Door, with "modena" tan interior. It has a 5-speed manual and a single option; the on-board computer. It now has 23,000 miles on it. I just purchased it recently because it's been my dream car forever and the lease on...

Pros: Handling, Speed, Looks, Luxury Package
Cons: Squeeky Clutch, Power Windows, Cost of Maintenance
The Bottom Line: If you want a fast car that handles like its on rail and gets alot of attention then get yourself a BMW M3
I have a 1997 Estoril Blue M3 coupe with black leather and the luxury package that has 44,000 miles on it. I have every possible option except for the rear wing spoiler which I dont like very much. I recently purchased this car from a lady at work ...
