Offered for sale is this 2012 BMW M3 Convertible, finished in Metallic Silver over a Palladium grey and black leather interior with a folding steel body-color convertible top, powered by a 4.0 liter V8 engine, running power to the rear wheels through a 7-speed M-DCT Drivelogic dual clutch automated transmission, with 10,900 miles on the odometer as of this writing.
This ''E93'' generation M3 is the last M3 to be equipped with a naturally aspirated engine, and the S65 V8 is an incredible motivator for a sporting convertible. It has 414hp coupled with an 8400 rpm redline, and was only available in this generation M3. Both in power and sound, it is perfectly suited to the nature of this coupe, which is both comfortable but capable - and in the best M tradition, engaging and enjoyable to drive quickly. The folding electric hardtop is well integrated and avoids ruining the lines of the car with an oversized trunk to hide the top - and not only makes for a quiet cabin when closed, but allows the occupants to hear the great noises the car makes with the top down.
This great example was used sparingly, driven less than 800 miles a year through its life - and its condition both cosmetically and mechanically reflects that careful use. Options include the 19'' factory wheel upgrade, the ''double hump'' factory navigation with phone integration, and the DCT dual clutch transmission for both relaxed touring and lightning quick gear selection.
