BMW 3 Series · E36, E46, E90, F30, G20 · Buying guide

    3 Series.
    The benchmark compact premium.

    The 3 Series is BMW's compact saloon and the brand's best-seller, in production since 1975. The E36, E46, E90, F30 and G20 generations set the handling benchmark in the compact-premium class. Body styles span saloon, touring, coupe and convertible, with inline-fours, sixes and diesels. The classic rear-wheel-drive layout is part of the model's character, with optional xDrive on newer years. The 3 Series is one of the most common BMWs at Japanese auctions.
