With chris bangle's exquisite brushwork, E463 series successfully broke through the design shackles of E36 series. The solid body, the brand-new kidney grille, the peanut eye lamp that respects the charm of the round lamp, not only locked in the glass cover, but also the naughty taillight that extends to the trunk lid have successfully activated the image of the three series among car fans and narrowed the psychological distance with people.

The newly designed body frame of E46 is 70% more rigid than that of E36. Moreover, the suspension geometry of the new car has been reset, and aluminum alloy suspension components have been introduced for the first time, which makes the whole car feel and the dynamic response of the car by going up one flight of stairs.

As the flagship of the car, the power configuration of the 3.0L straight six naturally aspirated engine and the 6-speed manual/automatic gearbox of the 330i model was mouth-watering at that time. The maximum power of the engine 170 kW (23 1PS) and the peak torque of 300 Nm are quite good data even today.
