Highly likely to return based on appearances in Forza Horizon 4 and 5; not yet officially announced for FH6 at the time of writing.
About the 2016 BMW M3 in Forza Horizon
Sedans don't get the photo-trailer attention of supercars, but the segment hides genuine driver's machines. 2016 BMW M3 belongs in that hidden roster. Forza Horizon often slots performance saloons into the B and A brackets, where they can punish supercar-class drivers who underestimate the chassis.
2010s saw turbocharging, hybridization, and active aero arrive at every tier. BMW adopted these on the M3 platform with results visible in lap times.
In-Game Classification
2016 BMW M3 sits in the Sedan / Saloon bracket of the Forza Horizon car list. Class A is a competitive tier in Forza Horizon, and M3 can hold its own when the build avoids overshooting into S1.
The RWD drivetrain shapes how M3 responds to power and tire upgrades — every Forza Horizon entry rewards drivers who understand what their drivetrain layout means for weight transfer in corners.

Where BMW Sits in Forza Horizon 6
BMW contributes a substantial slice of the Forza Horizon 6 vehicle catalog. The M3 fits into that broader BMW lineage — every entry on the wiki cross-references its in-game class, drivetrain, and country of origin to help players plan their Festival Playlist garage. For a Germany-built Sedan / Saloon machine in the A class, this is one of the more interesting picks in the full 896-vehicle catalog.
