2001 BMW 3 Series

The 2001 BMW 330 remains identical to current 328s, except for engine and brake upgrades. The 3.0L engine now replaces the 2.8L engine, providing an additional 32 horsepower. Front and rear brake rotor size is increased by one inch. A new addition to the line-up is an all-wheel drive model, the 330Xi. This AWD configuration is available only on the four-door sedan. The optional AWD Sport Package is offered for the 330Xi model, while The Sport Package is available on all models except the 330Xi. Leather bucket seats are standard on the Ci convertible. The power windows feature anti-pinch protection for safety, and the optional multi-functional steering wheel includes finger controls for cruise control, audio, and phone accessories.
