BMW of Santa Maria is proud to announce the arrival of the highly anticipated, fully redesigned BMW 3 Series.

Santa Maria, CA -- (SBWire) -- 02/15/2012 --When the 2012 BMW 3 Series Sedan was introduced to the world in Munich late last year everyone started talking, and then the all-new 3 Series was introduced to the public at the Detroit Auto Show and BMW enthusiasts were increasingly excited to get their hands on the new BMW. Now, BMW of Santa Maria can make that happen. The all-new BMW 3 Series is available now at BMW of Santa Maria in California, and ready for a test drive.

The 2012 BMW 3 Series Sedan is fully redesigned with an updated style, additional interior room and new engine and transmission options to gain better fuel efficiency. The 2012 3 Series coupe, convertible and wagon remain unchanged from the previous generation, with all the focus on the BMW 3 Series Sedan.

The all-new BMW 3 Series Sedan is available in 328i and 335i trim levels, with three different equipment lines: Sport, Luxury, and Modern. Also available will be an M Sport package.

A favorite from previous years, the 2012 3 Series will give customers the option for either a four-cylinder or six-cylinder power. This will mark the first time since 1999 that an American-spec BMW 3 Series will feature a 328i model with a four-cylinder engine. This time, it’s a 2.0-liter turbocharged/intercooled unit that relies on BMW’s dual-scroll TwinPower Turbo technology along with direct fuel injection and 240 horsepower.

In addition, the 2012 BMW 3 Series Sedans are offering even more standard and optional features. Some of these features include a new generation full-color Head-Up Display, Active Blind Spot Detection, Rear View Camera with surround view, BMW Parking Assist, Lane Departure/Collision Warning System and a hands-free decklid opening function.

With all the hype and anticipation of the 2012 BMW 3 Series, BMW of Santa Maria is proud to announce the vehicles are now available for test drive and purchase at their Santa Maria, CA BMW dealership.
