Earthy Cars has two BMW’s of the 3 series, BMW’s most popular line. BMW had produced its 3 series since 1975; since then, it has had five generations of the 3 series. Each year, the BMW 3 series has several different trims.

Our lot has both a 3rd generation model (from 1994) and a 4th generation model (from 2005. Even though the 1994 model is 16 years old, and 11 years older than the 2005 model, it doesn’t have that many more miles on it than the 2005. At 129,154 miles, that is pretty remarkable for a 16 year old car. And,it body is in very good shape as well. It barely has a scratch or dent. We think its the perfect car for parents to buy a teenager who has just got his or her driver's license.

As always, our prices are very competitive: our 2005 BMW sells for $13,900 - the cheapest you will find a BMW that is around 5 years old.

From MSN Autos:

“The 3-Series is BMW's near-luxury model offered in sedan, coupe, convertible and wagon versions. A descendant of the mid-'60s BMW 1600, considered by many automotive enthusiasts to be the first compact sedan to offer sports-car performance, the 3-Series has continued to be the benchmark of sport sedans. The 3-Series designation first appeared in America in 1977, and the car evolved from a boxy shape to a fluid, aerodynamic design.”
