CarGurus Analysis: 2017 BMW M3

Summary
With 205 currently listed for sale and an average price of $47,197, 34.1% of 2017 BMW M3s for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2017 BMW M3 5 / 5 stars.
59.5% of 2017 M3 models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2017 BMW M3 stands out as a high-performance sedan that still manages to be practical enough for everyday use. BMW’s M3 formula has always centered on driving enjoyment, and this generation keeps that focus while packaging it in a sedan body style with seating for five and a roomy 16.9-cubic-foot trunk. It also offers a broad range of upgrades for comfort, convenience, safety, and performance, which lets buyers tailor the car to their preferences.
What makes the 2017 BMW M3 especially appealing is the way it blends serious pace with usable hardware. It uses a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine, and the standard six-speed manual sends 473 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels. BMW also offered the M3 Competition with 503 hp and 479 lb-ft, though that version requires the eight-speed Steptronic automatic transmission. For buyers who want more traction, BMW began offering the M3 Competition xDrive in 2022, with all-wheel drive and a rear-drive-only setting for track use.
There are a few drawbacks worth noting. Enthusiasts had been criticizing BMW’s electric-assist steering for years, and that complaint continued with this generation. The styling also drew heavy criticism when the car was introduced, especially the twin-kidney grille. Even so, the 2017 BMW M3 remains distinctive because it combines strong acceleration, sharp cornering, and daily practicality in one package.

Is the 2017 BMW M3 a good car?
Yes — the 2017 BMW M3 earns a 5/5 user rating, and it fits well if you want a high-performance sedan that still works as an everyday car. The M3 formula here centers on driving enjoyment, but you also get seating for five, a 16.9-cubic-foot trunk, and a broad range of comfort, convenience, safety, and performance upgrades that let you tailor the car to your needs. It also delivers serious pace with a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine and the kind of sharp cornering that keeps it distinctive in the segment. With 34.5% of listings marked as good or great deals, there is still some room to shop selectively.
Is the 2017 BMW M3 reliable?
Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction. The 2017 BMW M3’s appeal comes from a proven performance-focused formula: a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine, rear-wheel drive, and a standard six-speed manual transmission. It also offers the kind of everyday usability that can make ownership feel more manageable, including sedan practicality and a usable trunk. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about the basic concept and more about how the car was maintained and driven before you buy it.
What should I look for when buying a used 2017 BMW M3?
At 58.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important. You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a thorough pre-purchase inspection, especially on a performance car where prior abuse or incomplete repairs can be costly. Focus on overall condition, maintenance records, and signs of modifications or hard use, since those factors matter a lot when you’re shopping for a used M3.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2017 BMW M3?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile options.
- Deal availability: 34.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 206 listings available.
- Clean inventory: 58.7% of listings are accident-free.
Should I buy a 2017 BMW M3 or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2017 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2017 if:
- 34.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 58.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
The bottom line: The 2017 BMW M3 makes sense if you want a high-performance sedan with strong everyday usability and you’re willing to be selective about condition and history. If you’re price-sensitive, you may want to compare nearby years and focus on the best-maintained example rather than chasing the newest badge alone.
