The 3 Series is BMW’s bread and butter car, and has long been an entry point to the brand for many buyers. Though it has a smaller 2 Series now, BMW’s 3 Series is still a great first step into the German automaker’s catalog. There’s a dizzying array of 3 Series models, but the basic 330i sedan with rear-wheel drive is the most affordable car in the line. It still offers legitimate performance and the sharp styling BMW’s known for. Numerous options and upgrades are available, but there’s plenty of standard tech and features to satisfy most. People needing all-wheel drive can pay extra for the xDrive variant, and BMW offers an electrified version in the 330e. Enthusiasts wanting the ultimate 3 Series car can opt for the M3.
