All sedan, touring, and compact models are equipped with factory open differential. I didn't test all of them in Beam.Īll Coupé ('C' badged) models are equipped with limited slip differential for sporty feeling. There could be minor differences (major for top speeds).Ĭonsumptions and acceleration speeds are Automation-claimed values.

I couldn't make all specifications real life-like. Length: 4480-4510mm (Compact: 4420mm /couldn't make it shorter/)ĭrivetrain: Longitudional Rear wheel drive or All-wheel drive (x-Drive, only used in the Touring model)įacelift years: 2001 (Sedan, Touring), 2003 (Coupé)įacelift changes: Bumpers, headlights and taillights Which makes it more than 3 times rarer, than the Ferrari 250 GTO.

While I can't exactly agree with that, there's no doubt for me that this one's on the podium, with its raspy voice.Ģ004 M3 CSL: Basically a ripped M3, less weight, more power, more downforce.Ģ005 M3 GTR (Straßenversion): Homologation model for Le Mans, 10 of them were made. Lots and lots and lots of torque.Ģ001 M3: A lot of people state that this is the best M3 ever made. All-wheel driven, to arrive everywhere in time even in winter.Ģ002 330d: Biggest diesel version.

Mostly because the engine came from the strongest non M-power E36.Ģ002 330Ci: You want an M3, but you don't have enough dough? Here's the solution!Ģ004 330xi Touring: A good alternative if you want a fast beemer, but you're blessed with the burden of family, or just work at a construction site. Eastern Europe's favourite import target in the mid 2010s.ġ998 323i: An older, more reliable piece of engineering available at model release.Ģ006 320Ci: An overall good coupe, from the more sensible side.ġ999 328Ci: I genuinely like this model. 'N' badged engines are successors of 'M' badged engines (M40,M43,M50,M52,etc), with polar bear friendly improvements, and a timing chain from some child-sized bicycle.Ģ000 320d: A sturdy little workhorse. The package contains the following models:ġ999 316i: Smallest 3 series available for pre-facelift models, with a bored-out M43 engine.Ģ003 316Ti Compact: It's a looker, isn't it?Ģ004 318i: Facelift model with the new N42 engine. Looking back now it wasn't a failure at all, some trims were looked quite okay, but I'm not here to discuss the matter of taste. The development started in 1993, it's basically Chris Bangle's first 'child' at BMW. Made between 1998-2006, successor of the E36 ( :'( ), predecessor of the E90. With the associated knowledge, I felt ready to make an E46, as it was requested already. Mostly because I've been busy, and also I had to learn these new 3D and interior features. It's been a while since I made something here.
