Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/28/2011 -- P&W BMW is proud to announce that it now carries the new 2012 BMW 3 series. The 2012 3 Series sedan provides a sporty, powerful ride that offers performance, comfort, and safety to all drivers.

The 2012 BMW 3 series gives drivers the extreme performance that has made BMW famous. The 3.0-liter, V6 engine puts 230-horsepower in the hands of owners. The 2012 3 Series’ Double VANOS offer drivers more torque and strong acceleration when driving on the highway. The VANOS also keeps the engine quiet while idling. The 6-speed STREPTRONIC automatic transmission offers sport, drive, and manual mode, and provides better performance and reduced fuel consumption.

The 2012 BMW 3 Series gives drivers extreme comfort while traveling. When taking trips on the highway, the 2012 3 Series’ Active Cruise Control allows drivers to relax and cruise at a given speed. If the car begins to close in on a vehicle ahead, the Active Cruise Control will automatically reduce the speed to prevent a collision. Once it has gone back far enough, the system then accelerates to the original cruise speed. The Comfort Access system on the 2012 3 Series also gives drivers keyless access to the car when they have the remote key on their person.

Along with comfort, the 2012 BMW 3 Series also offers safety to its passengers. The Park Distance Control in the 2012 3 Series uses its sensors in the rear bumper to tell drivers how far they are from other objects behind them when parking. Beeping becomes faster when the object closes in on the bumper, and the beeping turns into a constant tone when the distance is less than 12 inches away. When drivers of the BMW 3 Series lose control of the vehicle, the sedan’s Dynamic Stability Control uses built-in sensors to monitor the situation and regains control of the wheel traction immediately.
