2006 BMW M3
Editors' rating
Very good
7.7
out of 10
- The good: The 2006 BMW M3 pleases enthusiasts of both performance and technology with near race-spec power and handling. Satellite radio provides a soundtrack to the racetrack, and a rudimentary navigation unit spares drivers the hassle of BMW's iDrive interface.
- The bad: The 2006 BMW M3 is a high-priced, high-performance gas guzzler that can be balky when cold and at slow speeds. The veteran sports car shows its age with the lack of any MP3-playback ability.
- The bottom line: The current iteration of BMW's signature sports car blends competition power and handling with the comfort of a workaday sedan. Cockpit tech is less than impressive for a car with a price tag of nearly 70 grand, and fuel consumption and emissions are high. But it sure is fun to drive.
