3 series pic from 1st gen to 2006 model (big pic)
I thought this was a pretty cool pic showing how the car has evolved. The new car looks huge, like the old 5 size.

Thanks for the picture!
Not to mention that it's been taken next to the BMW museum in Munich.

Wow thats pretty cool.Thanx Sic.It's funny how the current 3 series looks outdated already next to the 2006 model.I actually saw a new 3 series that was semi covered a while ago.I wasn't really feeling the tail lights but the front is ok. As far as appearance,I don't think the new IS has anything to worry about.

Nice pic. I still like the the current gen more, but this pic makes the new one look superior.
And which building is the museum?? The one that looks like it is wrapped in Spiderwebbing?? Thats a cool looking building.

The museum is the round building behind the new 3 series.
If you look at it from the sky view, it actually has the complete roundel imprinted on its top. Very cool looking.
I wish BMW had included the 2002 next to the 1st generation 3 series. That would've been awesome!

if you put the most current e46 in there (330i w sport pkg) i dont think it would look as outdated. and i agree, the new IS is much sexier!

Wow, I thought I would always like the E46 more than the new one. However, the new one looks pretty good in this picture at least from the front.

I've been there in Munich. Awesome city! Loved it.
The spider looking thing is an arena.
