2005 BMW M3 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

THe hype is long over. Not sure where these seller are thinking these cars will ever fetch over 20k with cars with 100 more HP for less and all of these cars modified to garbage at this point. Get the next generation car or M6 or anything else that wont draw the racer kid challenge from a stop light or on the highway at speed. THe honda crowd graduates to a Subaru then these cars , buy anything else and save you money and timeAug 27, 2020

everything you have ever heard, everything you have ever read, everything, i mean everything is TRUE!!!!! very hard to pick out a flaw. amazing to drive, beautiful to look at, stylish, sexy, seductive. such a pleasure to drive. power is beyond satisfying. handles beautifully, stick shift, clutch feel and steering all live in harmony with each other. yes its expensive, even for a used car but its worth every penny. power never falls flat, stability at any speed in confident inducing, and the red imola interior adds to the sexual drive experience lol. i am truly in love with this car.Feb 16, 2012

looks sexy, fast acceleration amazing build quality and most fun engaging car i have ever owned. the biggest downside about owning the car is definately the cost of maintenance of the car...it gets pricy when having to do the service intervals. Also it has to use a special type of synthetic oil that ONLY BMW dealerships have a hold of so they monopolize the price of that!Nov 02, 2011

This is one of the greatest cars in the world, 3.2 engine that produces 343 HP, the car is very comfortable, reliable and fast, I love driving it all the time. Quality is excellent; appearance is awesome for aggressive shape lovers and interior is very sexy for a racing car passionate. Cost? if you can afford it, just buy it. It is fun to drive the car on the roads all the time.Dec 24, 2009

The good: Where to start, this care doesn't stop to amaze me. I just love it. An amazingly powerful engine that delivers more than 100 hp per liter without the need of forced air induction. The car is and feels very fast. Brakes are amazing. These are the competition package ones, so I don't know about the other versions. The suspension is extremely well balanced for comfort and sportiness. Again, this is the competition package which is a bit harder than the regular one. SMG transmission got some time to get used to but I love it.But that love doesn't extend to other manufacturers'. My Gallardo's eGear is not as good, in that one I would prefer a regular manual transmission. Looks: it is still a very elegant and modern look. The bad: It could lose some pounds. The navigation system sucks. The original mp3 player doesn't show the tracks names. Bluetooth only works with some Motorola phones.Jul 12, 2009

performance 345 bhp 0 - 60 4.8sec i've had 182mph and its limited estimate 210mph de-limited build quality only the best appearance carbon black convertible grey leather, heated seats, full electric everything, climate control, sat nav built in, dvd players, smg tiptronic with 10 different gearbox and suspension settings and launch control (wow) cost- ouch over a 1200 pound for 4 tyres 57,000 pound new, 21 to gallon best if drive it like it made of glass 700 pound a service but nothing ever goes wrong. fun factor- becareful with the throtle it just sits and spins on the spot if ya floor it off the line without launch control. slippy and slidy great for drifting but watch the money burn from your tyres. tyre need changing every 10,000 miles at best driving normaly without the drifting.Jun 11, 2009

Amazing performance when needed, hit the throttle hard with maximum setting on the SMG and you have a beast at your feet - put it into auto level 2 and it becomes a sedate little kitten ! Don't use the launch control too often, it will give you heart problems ! Service costs can be high, but that is to be expected on a thoroughbred car like this. Absolute fun to drive.May 29, 2009

I love this car! It's one of the best handling in-line 6 cars in the world ... I love how I feel driving it and how others feel riding in it! I know it's an eye catcher, and definitely M WORTHY since I did custom design and oder my baby! The only thing most people will not like is the stiff ride, which is what I would expect in a car that is an ultimate driving experience!Aug 24, 2008
