2006 BMW M3
Vehicle Summary: 2006 BMW M3
The powerful M3, available as a coupe or convertible, soldiers on with few changes for 2006, pending a complete redesign that will likely bring a new V8 engine. Changes are minimal to this race-car-for-the-streets, which remains a more practical yet uncompromising alternative to hard-core sports cars. It's not for the faint of heart, as its sharp reflexes can make for a brutal ride on rough roads.

BMW's Street Racer
The BMW M3 won't be redesigned for another year or two, which is fine, because the 2005 model is still a thrill.
Highs
- Race-car performance and handling
- Understated good looks
- Supportive front seats
- Well designed interior
- Usable backseat and trunk
Lows
- Clunky and annoying Sequential Manual Gearbox
- Stiff suspension batters occupants
- Subject to $1,000 gas-guzzler tax
What's New
- Essentially unchanged since its 2001introduction, the M3 isn't saddled with gadgets
