This Year's Model Updates:

The BMW 3 Series sedan and wagon have been completely redesigned for 2006. Major highlights include new features, more powerful engines, a slightly larger interior and the incorporation of BMW's latest exterior styling elements. The 3 Series coupe and convertible are unchanged this year but will eventually move over to the new platform being used for the sedan and wagon; expect to see a new hardtop convertible for the 2008 model year.

Pros:
  • Still the standard when it comes to perfectly sorted vehicle dynamics, high-quality interior materials, wide range of configurations to suit any style, available all-wheel drive for sedan and wagon.
Cons:
  • Still costs more than most of its competitors, lacking in interior storage space.

  • Nice Whip! - 2006 BMW 3-Series
    By -

    I recently purchased my 325i and thus far, I love it! I traded my C43 AMG Mercedes Benz for the 325i and its the first BMW Ive owned. The car is fun and extremely comfortable to drive on my long commutes. However, I still cant believe it doesnt come with a car alarm, floor mats, dimming review mirror, and a number of other extras. Also, what was BMW thinking on the location of the power window knobs? Nice ride though.

  • Ultimate Driving Machine... oh yeah - 2006 BMW 3-Series

    I have never felt more at ease in a car- it is able to handle any driving situation. The steering, handling, style and speed make driving truely fun. Its been a month with my new car- and I dare say I may be a BMW customer for life!

  • LOVE my Car!!! - 2006 BMW 3-Series

    Everybody should love the adventure of driving their car like I do every day of the week. I enjoy every minute of being in this "drivers" car. If you love to drive, this is the car. What a sexy thing. Its a drivers dream. Nothing like punching that gas and passing anything in sight. Whips around corners and hugs the road. If you are on a straight away watch out. Before you know it youre nearing 100 mph if youre not careful. Such a CLASS car! Ill get another one.

  • BUY IT !! - 2006 BMW 3-Series

    I just recently bought a 330i 2006 BMW. I previously had a 228i. This car is awesome. It is sleek, fun, fast, and has all the luxury that BMW promises. You cant go wrong with this one!

  • Great new 325 - 2006 BMW 3-Series

    The new 325 is a great car. It handles great and has smooth acceleration in all gears. The new styling is very attractive. We love it!

  • Better Every Day! - 2006 BMW 3-Series

    Pictures and quick test drive do not do justice for this car. It excels in every arena; from getting 40mpg on the fwy to having tons of power to the interior comfort, I cant wait to drive my 325 each morning and look for excuses to go somewhere.

  • Superb Sport Wagon - 2006 BMW 3-Series
    By -

    The new 325 XiT is a superbly designed wagon that is a joy to drive. Coming from a 330i sedan, I was somewhat skeptical that the 325 engine would have enough power, but it is more than adequate unless you are seeking a dragster. The versatility of the wagon, the X-drive, the exterior design and amazing features like the panorama sunroof all combine to make this machine the ultimate wagon. With perfect 50:50 F/R weight distribution and X-drive, this car has amazing cornering capabilities and the same wonderful steering found all of the 3 series.

  • NICE ~ FUN ~ CAR - 2006 BMW 3-Series

    This is my first BMW, my husbands second, I bought it for his 50th birthday gift; he has driven it a handful of times. If I let him, lol. (I stole it from him!) We both love it! Along with our 3 kids. We have had just about every car out there. IT IS FUN! We all love it!

  • The new E90 - 2006 BMW 3-Series
    By -

    Having owned 3 E46s since they were released, and just purchasing the 3rd one (330cic w/ performance package) a month ago, I was a bit worried about the new model. So far, I LOVE this car. Internet pictures and reviews do not do this car justice. I purchased a 330i Silver on Black w/ Sport, Premium, Cold Weather, and iDrive/Nav. The car is fast, comfortable (larger interior), fun to drive. Its everything youd expect from a 3 series plus more. The sound system is excellent, and I love the ability to use voice commands to control the iDrive. Add in a bluetooth phone, the ability to make calls with one push of a button without ever touching your phone is a really winner in my book.

  • Hard to Beat - 2006 BMW 3-Series
