In an earlier post, we taught our readers about the BMW performance brand, the "M" lineup.  As we described in this post, the BMW vehicles with the "M" decal have enhanced engines, giving the BMW M vehicles more horsepower than their non-M counterparts.  One of our favorite BMW M models for sale on our BMW car dealer lot near Asheville is the BMW M3.

While we have an affinity for all of the BMW M models, since after all we are a BMW car dealer, we are particularly fond of the BMW M3 because we are particularly fond of the BMW 3 Series.  The BMW M3 is essentially the BMW 3 Series, only with a more powerful engine under its hood.  For example, the BMW M3 has a 4.0-liter, V8 engine with 414 horsepower.  This is 174 horsepower more than the BMW 328i sedan.

The BMW M3 is available as a coupe or as a convertible.  Both models utilize a manual transmission and earn about 14 miles per gallon during city driving and 20 miles per gallon on the highway.  Both vehicles also offer creature comforts like Bluetooth, and iPod input jack, an optional navigation system, and more.

But of course, the BMW M3 is purchased for its engine.  Come witness the difference the "M" decal can make by visiting us at BMW of Asheville and taking a BMW M3 for a test drive.  You will not regret the decision to grant yourself the experience of 174 extra horsepower.  And you probably will not want to give this extra power up, either.
