Where is the VIN number located on a BMW 3 Series?
1 Answers
The VIN number of a BMW 3 Series is located near the right front fender. Here is some relevant information about the BMW 3 Series: 1. Exterior: The previous generation 3 Series had a slender body, but the new 3 Series appears more robust, with a slightly less aggressive and more substantial look. From a distance, the car resembles the 5 Series. The body proportions largely retain the long hood and short rear end of the previous generation, but the headlights adopt a more youthful and sharper style similar to the new 1 Series. The waistline, which runs from the height of the headlights to the rear of the car and passes through the front and rear door handles, enhances the overall sporty feel. The outer corners of the new 3 Series headlights tilt noticeably toward the sides, forming a sharp angle that subtly reveals the car's restrained aggression. The rear wedge shape has become more rounded, and while the new 3 Series may not be as classic as its predecessors, it is more streamlined and dynamic. The three waistlines gradually merge at the taillights, giving the car a cohesive and unified appearance without compromising its sportiness. 2. Interior: The BMW 325i features a more refined interior than ever, thanks to innovative design elements and harmonious color and material combinations. Drivers can express their individuality through high-quality materials and expressive colors. The Dakota leather seat covers come in 11 colors, including three new options: Oyster, Saddle Brown, and Red Brown. The new series also includes high-gloss trim in Diamond Black and Space Gray, as well as fine-grain brushed aluminum and horizontal-grained walnut wood trim. The BMW 325i is equipped with the latest BMW iDrive operating system, which pairs perfectly with the professional navigation function. It boasts the largest high-precision display in its class. The iDrive central controller and interface are ergonomically optimized for intuitive operation via rotation, pressing, and tilting. Blind-operation buttons on the controller allow for quick and easy menu selection, while programmable function keys simplify operation. The professional navigation system enhances destination entry, route selection, and map display, making driving more enjoyable. 3. Performance: BMW has introduced aluminum-magnesium alloy for the first time in the new 3 Series production engine, reducing engine weight by 30% and fuel consumption by 16% compared to traditional aluminum engines. The top-of-the-line new 330i is powered by a 6-cylinder engine with an output of 190 kW/258 hp, an increase of 20 kW/27 hp over the previous generation. It delivers a maximum torque of 300 Nm at 2,500–4,000 rpm, accelerates from 0–100 km/h in just 6.6 seconds, and has a top speed limited to 250 km/h, with a combined fuel consumption of 9.0 L/100 km. Performance-enhancing features include a 3-stage resonance intake system derived from racing technology, which adjusts the intake manifold length via internal valves to optimize airflow efficiency at different engine speeds. Peak torque is achieved as early as 2,500 rpm, and over 90% of the torque is maintained between 1,500 rpm and 6,500 rpm.
