BMW M GmbH, the German automaker’s revered M division celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. Coincidentally it also delivered its 300,000th M car to a customer this month, an alpine white BMW M3 Coupe (much like the car above), which it handed over to its owner at the BMW M plant in Regensburg, East Bavaria.
The BMW M division began in 1978, an evolution of BMW Motorsport GmbH which was established six years before that. The first M car was the BMW M1 (find out all about it here). The M1 was recently commemorated with the BMW M1 Hommage Concept. The current BMW M line-up consists of the M3 Sedan, M3 Coupe, M5 Sedan, M5 Touring, M6 Coupe, M6 Convertible, Z4 M Coupe and Z4 M Roadster.
M cars are also popular in Malaysia. “Since we began operations in 2003, the sales of M cars have been growing significantly on an annual basis. 2007 was our best year ever and we achieved a sales growth of 189% from the previous year. With the recent local release of the new M3 Coupe and M3 Sedan, we expect another good year for the M cars. In fact compared to the same period last year, we grew by 50%,” said BMW Group Malaysias Corporate Affairs Manager, Vijayaratnam Tharumartnam.
The following is a list of BMW M car prices in Malaysia OTR without insurance:
BMW M3 Sedan – RM713,800.00

Nice to see, nice to hold. Once sold, we still cannot buy it. Just watch it.

Nice to see, nice to hold. Once sold, we still cannot buy it. Just watch it.
hehehee….for me, its more like “Nice to see, scared to hold. Once owned, need to eat maggi (for the rest my life)”
wait 20 years, then buy it 2nd hand.. or you can go look for an E36 M3, they should be selling for around RM70-80k now depending on year.. ;)
so its not entirely true if you say you cant afford an “M” car.. but maintenance is another thing altogether..
price of M6 Cabriolet?
in US, they can buy M6 Coupe for about USD 116 000 or equivalent to RM 378450.00…and here with the corrupt G full of stupid AP for the cronies we need to pay for RM938,000.00. sigh…no wonder we opt for opposition now…
hahaha..

“nice to see, dream to hold, once u owned, wallet gets a hold.”
