BMW of Peabody is pleased to offer the 2011 BMW 3 Series to Boston automotive consumers, a vehicle line recently named one of the best luxury vehicles for families by FamilyCarGuide.com.
Available in coupe, sedan and convertible body styles as well as 328i and 328i xDrive, 335i and 335i xDrive, and 335is models, the 2011 BMW 3 Series offers freedom and choice to Boston BMW shoppers. 
What earned the 3 Series such praise from Family Car Guide?
Perhaps it’s the artful balance these vehicles strike between performance, first-class features and safety.

Beneath the hood of the 328i and 328i xDrive is a 3.0-liter, 230-horsepower six-cylinder engine. For an idea of what that power can do, a manual-transmission 328i can go from zero to 60 in just 6.2 seconds. A six-speed manual transmission comes standard; the automatic is an added option. Drivers will be pleased to find that both transmissions in rear-wheel drive models will get an EPA-estimated 18 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway, while the xDrive will achieve 17 mpg city and 25 mpg highway.
The 335i models feature added power with their own direct-injection 3.0-liter turbo, which produces 300 horsepower. Again, a tangible example for this power at work is the 335i manual going from zero to 60 in just 5.3 seconds.
The 335is has the most power in the line with an engine capable of 320 horsepower and a zero to 60 run in five seconds flat.
Family Car Guide points to technology features as another selling point for the 3 Series. Among these attractive high-tech features: an optional Harman/Kardon surround sound system, smartphone integration, iPod adapter, enhanced emergency call and BMW Assist My Info.
The BMW 3 Series also delivers reassurance with its numerous safety features. Family Car Guide lists among its standard safety equipment: electronic stability and traction control, tire pressure monitoring system, four-wheel ventilated anti-lock disc brakes with dynamic brake control, anti-lock braking system (ABS), driver and passenger front airbags, and seat-mounted front side-impact airbags.
Powerful, practical and safe, vehicles in the 3 Series are available now at BMW of Peabody, a leading dealer for BMW in Boston.
