2006 BMW M3

The 2006 BMW M3 wearing the "M" badge of BMW's Motorsport division is a race inspired production car with an emphasis on performance and ultra drivability. High performance handling combined with an equally awe-inspiring engine makes this high-performance Motorsport creation an all-time BMW favorite. It is propelled by a 3.2-liter, six-cylinder engine rated at 333 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque that can get you 0-60 in approximately 5 seconds. It is equipped with a sequential manual gearbox that offers both manual and automatic driving modes. Although the SMG is by definition a manual transmission, its clutch is electronically controlled, and there's no clutch pedal. Drivers can use either steering column-mounted paddles or the shift lever to change gears in manual mode. Unlike other systems, SMG allows you to alter the quickness of the shifts, and in its most aggressive shift program, it's said to be faster than Ferrari's Formula One setup. Standard features on the coupe include automatic climate control, 10-way adjustable sport seats, one-touch power windows, heated power mirrors, a CD player, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, automatic headlights, rain-sensing wipers and keyless entry. Safety features include four-wheel antilock disc brakes, stability control, front side-impact airbags and head curtain airbags for the front. This model is equipped with BMW’s competition package, which outfits the coupe with some of the performance upgrades from the coveted European-market M3 CSL, including 19-inch forged alloy wheels, larger Michelin tires, stiffer shocks and springs, a quicker steering ratio, upgraded brake pads and rotors, a less intrusive M Track mode for the stability control system, and unique Alcantara and aluminum interior trim. Other upgraded options on this model include park distance control, xenon lights, cd, premium package, navigation, and Harman Kardon sound system. Its also has an SMG,moonroof and Schnizter exhaust. This car is offered with a warranty good through 6/20/2010 or 100,000 miles. Keep the throttle set in "Sport" mode and the M3 will tackle your favorite set of switchbacks as fast as any production car on the road.
