2003 BMW M-Series

The 2003 BMW M-Series is the BMW performance line-up. Now, you may be saying that all BMW models are performance-oriented but the M-Series are the performance versions of the already sporty Beemer lines.

The 2003 BMW M-Series is comprised of cars akin to those from the 3-Series and the 5-Series but these are on altogether different order of power, performance, quality and interior content.

Available Models
The three M-Series cars include the 2003 BMW M3 Coupe, the 2003 BMW M3 Cabriolet and the M5 4-door performance sedan, at the highest level of luxury and cost.

Interior Features
The interiors of the 2003 BMW M-Series cars are top-notch. Standard dual-zone automatic climate control, micro-filtered ventilation, a couple of different types of leather upholstery on 16-way power front bucket and rear split-fold bench seats combine with heated power mirrors, wood trim, rain-sensing wipers, an automatic day/night rearview mirror and much more. You name it and it is probably in here.

About the only extras are rear quarter sunshades and the Park Distance sensor system.

Exterior Features
On the 2003 BMW M5, 18-inch wheels set the initial tone of the exterior. This is a car with a businesslike heart and the exterior is all about performance and functional extras but yet it manages to both set new cool design paths while still echoing BMWs iconic and timeless image.

Halogen fog lights, heated windshield washer jets, heated side mirrors, metallic paint, rain-sensing wipers and Xenon headlights and just about everything else is included in the M-Class.

Performance
All three of 2003 BMW M-Series cars, whether the M3s or the 2003 BMW M5, are designed for the race track, bred from racetrack cars, in fact.

The M3s still opted for the V6. With 333 hp at 7900 rpm and 262 lb-ft of torque at 4900 rpm it offers more than 100 hp per liter of displacement. Either a 6-speed manual or the SMT automatic transmission with manual shift capability can be used on the M3 cars: allowing it to manage 16/24 mpg (city/hwy).

Next up, the M5, which has quite a bit more power from its V8 engine, puts out 394 hp at 6600 rpm and 368 lb-ft of torque at 3800 rpm. This kind of power puts it in the small group of production cars that can get from 0-60mph in under 5.0 seconds. (4.8 sec to be exact.)

Safety and Security
Active safety includes BMW's Dynamic Stability Control, All Season traction with limited slip differential and BMW M 4-wheel vacuum-assisted, ventilated, high-performance-tuned anti-lock disc brakes.

Front and side airbags, curtain side and torso side airbags also enhance 5-Series occupant safety.
