Car shoppers usually have a lot of things to consider when they're looking for their next purchase. To help consolidate this process, Car.com, USA Today and MotorWeek teamed up for the Sport Sedan Challenge, which evaluated the six most popular vehicles in the segment. After extensive tests dealing with the handling, performance and features of the cars, the BMW<\/a> 3-Series was found to be the leader of the pack. <\/p>\n

A panel of experts looked at popular sport sedan models that cost under $46,000. Each automobile was then judged based on how it drove in different situations, as well as braking, real-world mileage and more. <\/p>\n

The contest also used input from everyday car shoppers to select a winner. These drivers looked at things like cargo space, test drives, fuel economy and spaciousness to determine if they could see themselves investing in a similar vehicle. Many of these prospective buyers were impressed with the BMW 3-Series, which has been providing quality vehicles as a part of its lineup for 35 years. <\/p>\n

"Shoppers have a lot of great options to choose from in this category, but the 3-Series offers an outstanding combination of performance, fuel efficiency and roominess," said Patrick Olsen, editor-in-chief of Cars.com, one of the top websites for finding information on used cars. "From the start, we had high hopes for the BMW, and it did not disappoint. As tougher competition emerges in the sport sedan market, the long-lived BMW 3-Series continues to remain a force to be reckoned with in the segment." <\/p>\n

Car shoppers who want to drive something that combines the best of luxury, reliability and value can find used cars like the BMW 3-Series at NJ State Auto Auction<\/a>. The dealer has a wide selection of makes and models from which drivers can choose from, making it easy to find an affordable and stylish ride that still makes an impact on the road. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
