The interiors reflect its sporty character, with Alcantara sports seats and leather details on the dashboard, delivering a premium and luxurious ride.

2003: Exterior facelift for sedans and wagons, including revised headlights, taillights, and front/rear bumpers. Coupes and convertibles retained their original design until 2004.

Interior enhancements included an Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel and unique trim options.
2005: Adjustments to standard equipment, with some previously optional features like rain-sensing wipers and adaptive headlights becoming standard on higher trims. ZHP package continued for the 330i and 330Ci, popular for its sport-focused upgrades.
