2010 BMW M3 E92 DCT Coupé

Highlights

  • Last generation M3 with a naturally aspirated V8 engine
  • Equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT)
  • Carbon fibre roof
  • Recent rod bearing replacement by RD Automotive
  • Supplied with both keys, owner's manual, and service history

The Appeal

The E92 M3 represents an important - and much loved - keystone in BMW’s history, bridging the gap between the old-school, analogue driving experience and the modern, tech-heavy performance cars. The E92 is practically the definition of a modern classic -   It’s the only M3 to feature a V8 engine and the last generation with a naturally aspirated powerplant. 
In today's Turbocharged world, that makes this car a particularly impressive offering - and one that's still being eagerly pursued by the modern enthusiast. And who could blame them?

The Space Grey Metallic exterior, paired with a black hide interior, presents a timeless and elegant aesthetic to this rather imposing sports car. It's accompanied by an advisory-free MOT until June 2025, and has covered only 71,719 miles from new.
