The 2006 BMW 330i, a member of the E90-generation 3 Series, paired precision engineering with everyday usability. Its 3.0-liter N52 inline-six was a technical landmark, using an aluminum-magnesium composite block to save weight, while Valvetronic load control and double-VANOS cam timing sharpened efficiency and throttle response. With 255 horsepower and 220 lb-ft of torque, it delivered smooth, linear power across a wide rev range.

Mated to the close-ratio Getrag six-speed manual, it offered crisp shifts and direct mechanical feedback. Rear-wheel drive, a near-perfect 50/50 weight balance, and a multilink rear suspension gave the chassis exceptional poise. Inside, quality materials and a driver-focused layout set the tone, while four-wheel disc brakes with dynamic brake control and Dynamic Stability Control provided confident, secure stopping and stability. As Car and Driver summarized, “All of this adds up to a car that runs smoothly, feels wonderfully safe and secure on the road, and drives with a rare precision.”

This six-speed manual, rear-wheel-drive example was purchased by Dave Neuman in Florida in 2011, showing about 112,000 miles, and it now shows 142,000. This particular car was fitted from the factory with the Sport Package, including unique 18" alloy wheels with staggered-width tires, a lowered ride, height performance-oriented suspension system, larger front brakes, bolstered sport seats, and a thicker three-spoke sport steering wheel. Additional factory equipment includes heated front seats and a sunroof.

This 2006 BMW 330i is now offered at no reserve by the seller on behalf of its current owner with a CARFAX Vehicle History Report and a clean Wisconsin title.

Additional Information

The selling broker states, “The BMW starts, runs, and drives very well, shifting smoothly through the gears and braking as it should. The power mirrors, radio, and information screen are currently inoperative, and the tire warning light and several other warning lights are illuminated, though they do not affect drivability.

“Cosmetically, the car presents nicely with very few flaws aside from the upper windshield rubber, as shown in the photos. The interior is in excellent condition, and the car is accompanied by its books and some receipts. The side airbag was deployed and was repaired by reputable shop (see CARFAX). A new battery has also been installed. The BMW is being offered at no reserve.

“Due to the age and nature of collector automobiles, we cannot guarantee that every vehicle function will work as it originally did when the vehicle was new. These components are typically 30-60 years old or more and may need attention and service.

“In addition, many of our vehicles are from estates and have been stored and not driven. When vehicles sit for periods of time or once they are driven, issues can arise without warning.

“Due to age, all vehicles are sold strictly as-is without warranty or set aside. Pre-purchase inspections are encouraged and welcome while the auction is running.”
