This time, we've opted to sample a version far better suited to real-world driving conditions: an M3 with the Luxury package and five-speed automatic transmission. Functionally, the Luxury package Brings cruise control, a center armrest, onboard trip computer, and eight-way power adjustment for its front buckets. Like any garden-variety 3-Series coupe or sedan, the suspension hardware consists of MacPherson struts up front and BMW's multilink layout in the rear. The transformation comes courtesy of lower-profile coil springs (F-cars sit 1.2 inches Closer to the ground Than Their 3-Series brethren), Slightly wider track dimensions, stiffer gas-pressure shock absorbers, and larger-diameter anti-roll bars, front and rear.Steering gear Also on the Luxury version is common with other M3 models: a rack-and-pinion with variable power assist unit (found on all 3-Series cars), plus a variable element-ratio (15.4:1 on center to 19.8:1 at the margins).
