Thread: The New BMW M3 Car

BMW M3 Coupe with manual transmission and a full load cabin technologies as early as April, but we could not miss the opportunity to test another, this time in 2008 BMW M3 convertible with a new dual clutch transmission. While our M3 convertible no cabin Tech options, even without M programmable buttons on the steering wheel, it still proved an excellent vehicle to drive with all the performance opportunities loaded version. And we do not believe that you can improve on the M3 in performance, but double-clutch transmission makes the car even more interesting to drive.



DCT is a manual transmission with two gear shafts, each with its own computer-controlled clutch. When driving, a clutch will tackle in its shaft, while another sits sleeve is ready to engage the next gear up or down, with a computer to determine the most likely next gear you want. In manual mode you can choose to move up or down using the steering wheel or the power switch. Because the computer controls the clutch, no clutch pedal. The car also has automatic mode where the computer determines when the shift up or down. BMW M3 Coupe we tested were the standard six-speed ILAC. Double clutch transmission has seven gears.However, DCT is not the only difference between the two cars. BMW M3 Coupe gets carbon fiber roof, while the BMW M3 convertible use of a retractable hard, which means additional 441 pounds of curb weight of a convertible. The difference is the weight should be given M3 Coupe advantage in fuel economy.



BMWs, the sound system in the M3 convertible is a powerful and provides good sound quality, but this is not the best we have heard. Its high lack of clarity, although the average comes through force. His bass is not overwhelming, but it's nest. This base audio system uses eight speakers. You can get a premium audio system for a cabriolet M3, which uses 12 speakers and 825-Watt amp.Bluetooth cell phone integration into our car, which comes with BMW Assist telematics feature. Even limited to two-line radio display, BMW does an excellent job with a mobile phone integration. We call our guys, and very quickly gain access to our phone's contact list, using the stereo controls.
