While the recently revealed 2004 5 Series makes use of the "flame surfacing" idea favored by BMW's current head of design, the next 3 Series looks more like a smaller version of the previous 5 Series. Engine choices probably won't change all that much although the high-performance Motorsport coupe (likely renamed 4 Series) is expected to get V8 power. BMW's iDrive control system is a probable addition along with plenty of other new comfort and convenience features necessary to keep the best-selling sedan at the top of the sales charts. Less

The X5 3.0i SAV® lets you choose your exhilaration. Take twisty s-curves to marvel at the BMW sedan-like cornering. Or let snow-covered roads help you appreciate its advanced all-wheel drive and extra ground clearance. Inside, enjoy comfort for five, or fold the rear seats and pack in a load of gear. Point is, the 225-hp X5 3.0i has it all. Performance and utility with a choice of 6-speed manual or STEPTRONIC automatic transmission. The X5 3.0i. Many choices. One easy decision. Less

The other '3'

by carnut2k4 , May 21, 2005

Pros: Phenomenal handling, safety, construction

Cons: Small backseat and trunk, could use about 50 more horsepower

The Bottom Line: -

This reviewer recommends this product.

Review: With the 3 Series scheduled for another facelift when the 2006 model hits the showroom floors, I decided to grab some wheel time in the 2005 model. The '06 is on my short list of 'possible next cars' and I'd like to know what they've changed...

My 3rd Beemer--Still a Fantastic CAR--Almost perfect

by socalh2oskier , Dec 4, 2004

Pros: Fun Factor is a 10--great handling and also classy.

Cons: AVOID THE NAV--IT IS HORRIBLE! Tilt on steering wheel should come down lower.

The Bottom Line: BMW 3 series continues to lead the pack with the best combo of sport and class on the road

This reviewer recommends this product.

Review: I just traded my 2004 BMW 330 convertible for a 2005 325 convertible. I loved the 2004, but it had the sport package, and, after a couple of back surgeries last year, it sat a bit low and was uncomfortable. I had previously had a 2003 325...
