The 2006 BMW 3 Series is part of the iconic model's fifth generation (E90). This luxury sport sedan is noted for its refined handling, strong engines, and elegant interior. It houses a range of engines, including a 215-hp 3.0-liter inline-six as standard in the 325i and a more powerful 255-hp 3.0-liter inline-six in the 330i. A six-speed manual transmission is standard with a six-speed automatic available. The 2006 3 Series is available in sedan and wagon body styles, with coupe and convertible versions following later. BMW's iDrive infotainment system was a notable addition to the 3 Series lineup for 2006. The vehicle also offers a decent list of safety features, including stability control, run-flat tires, and a full set of airbags.
