What Owners are Saying About the 2009 BMW M3

"Maui Babe, the last of the V8's!"

"Only 18,750miles, garaged and pampered Melbourne Red with Fox Red leather interior, 6 speed manual. A Beauty and a Beast."

"Love my M3 Vert"

"Bought my 2013 BMW E93 M3 Convertible used in 2018 for $30K. Happy to say that my car actually appreciated 20% while I have owned it. Its a great car. Drives amazing and I absolutely love the sound of the engine and exhaust when I have the top down. The naturally aspirated engine only adds to the driving experience. I have driven the manual and the 7 speed dual clutch. I do prefer the dual clutch but appreciate the manual. The car does not have a high torque but it makes up for it with the high revving redline and when you push it past 3000 RPM's you can appreciate the power of the V8. This is the first generation M3 with a v8 and a hardtop retractable convertible. Only about 16,000 (2600 per year) verts were produced over 6 years worldwide. Making it sort of rare. I believe this car will be sought after by collectors and enthusiast alike over time. I really wanted to by a z8 but those cars have skyrocketed in value ($180K-$250K) and are unattainable. But I am very happy with the E93. Similar feel of a z8 with the V8 and convertible. If you like a convertable that turns heads and is fast - this is the car for you. This is not your regular 3 series BMW."

"Best ever"

"Wish I would have never sold it….. had so much fun with it. It’s a real drivers car. Felt like a go cart."

2009 BMW M3 Depreciation

Annual Depreciation is an estimation of what your vehicle's value might be over time based on an average of similar vehicles. Estimations are calculated by comparing Kelley Blue Book Private Party Values of vehicles similar to yours over time, as well as forecasts from Manheim Auction data comparing current and projected auction values against current Kelley Blue Book Private Party and Trade-In Values. This is not a guarantee of actual depreciation. Local weather conditions, market factors and driver performance will also impact your vehicle's actual depreciation.
