Best and worst car I have owned
I fell in love instantly with this car. A Blue Coupe. A xi. Really nice. Great driver and outstanding on the highway for road trips. Powerful. However, after a few months break down after breakdown. Anything that broke or malfunctioned cost a large amount to repair. After dropping 7k in just 3 1/2 years I had to trade it in and take a loss. It looked so good, I still miss it. I will not dare call this car a money pit. If you have the patience and not afraid to take a risk, you can drive one too! Be aware that if used and no longer under warranty, it could cost you dearly. Mine did.

Great for my 1st lux car. Use the Warranty
It is a great car! 7 years of owning it. Although if you buy used or new, make sure you get a warranty. Mine came with a 4 year 50,000 mile warranty and service and used it to it's full capacity, for various things. If I didn't have the warranty may not have liked it as much.

Fun small car to drive!
I love my 328i 2dr convertible. I bought it from a dealer with about 40k miles on it and I drive it everyday. Besides cosmetic wear and tear the car has run great for me.

86K and Going Strong!
So impressed with the non-turbo inline 6 in this car. Unbeatable combo of performance, reliability, and fuel efficiency. Look forward to my hour-long roundtrip every workday.

Awesome car
My BMW was great and was super reliable. I had a great time with it and it drove perfectly. Very impressed with BMW. It was my first and surely won't be my last.

Fun to drive. Great handling.
I loved owning this coupe. It's fun to drive, looks great and handles like a dream. The suspension is stiff which makes going over potholes very uncomfortable, but still enjoyable to drive overall. Maintenance costs are always an issue with BMW's, but fortunately I have not had to make any major repairs so far.

328i xDrive Wagon
My 2nd E90 era 3 Series and my third BMW 3 Series. So far, it has proven to be a reliable and entertaining vehicle. Capable in snow, nimble in corners, and comfortable on long drives this generation 3 Series takes whatever I throw at it (and being a wagon, in it too.) Have put over 35,000 miles on it and it doesn't skip a beat. The N52 post 2009 is more reliable than most BMW engines, though mine is finally showing signs of expected valve cover leaks after 7 years of service. As long as you stay ahead of maintenance the 2010 328 should give you miles/years or service! Some minor headaches are to be expected, but nothing to scare first time BMW owners away. Proper maintenance can be expensive however, so make sure your budget can afford it and you have local experts who know the car well.
