Few words & links:

In 1999 BMW 3 series E36 body was replaced by E46, starting with 323i and 328i 4-door sedan modifications. Most obvious changes to new generation of 3 series was more rounded, curved roofline and reshaped hood (and some criticize this). Also new E46 gathers wider wheels arches. E46 body was wider and longer than E36 (just like E36 in comparison with E30)
In 2000 BMW introduces two new modifications: 323Ci and 328Ci (available in coupe and convertible modifications). Also M3 modification was also perfectly styled and has all the needed dynamics both for a track and for a road.
