BMW 3 Series Coupe E46 2003 - 2006

Generation Information

Body style: None

Segment: None

BMW refreshed the 3-Series Coupe in 2003 and brought significant changes to the car’s exterior and on the technical platform.
For several years, BMW was the only important producer of a compact-segment coupe on the market. Mercedes-Benz was not focused on that area, and Audi was far behind. But BMW had a long tradition for the 3-Series coupe and had to keep it running.

On the exterior, the car received a new front fascia. Instead of the double-curved lower side, they featured only one and a straight, horizontal line. The apron was available either with an M-pack or standard, with a less-aggressive look. At the back, the car received a new, restyled bumper.

Inside, the carmaker installed a new steering wheel. On the center stack, BMW introduced an infotainment unit that included the navigation system as well. Depending on the trim levels and options, the carmaker offered power-seats.

Under the hood, BMW removed the two-liter inline-six engine. It was sad news for the 3-Series fans since all its predecessor featured one ever since the first generation of the 3-series. But they could choose from a 2.0-liter inline-four or a 2.2-liter inline-six instead. The 2003 BMW 3-Series was the last generation that used naturally aspirated gasoline engines. Unlike its four-door sibling, the coupe was available as a rear-wheel-drive only.
