It's not bad at all......

This is a awesome little fun car. They just have allot of issues and seeing they don't make this model 330ci any longer not many techs are trained or know what issues go wrong. Other than that a great car

Reliable car.

These small car BMWs run strong and are great for in town and long trips. Gas mileage is anywhere from 21 to 28 depending on your foot.

Actually a lower cost tomaintain than you think.

An older car, the BMW 330 is a terrific second vehicle to own. It is good on gas, certainly not underpowered, and a jewel to drive. I keep the vehicle pretty much stock and it helps with running around town and small trips.

Fun, reliable, economical, costly, worth it!

We love this car but since the cost of ownership is as high as it is we would buy a less performance oriented convertible.

Great little convertible

I test drove one a couple weeks ago, and it was surprisingly nimble and quick for its age. It was not in the best of shape, but mechanically was very strong.

most entertaining car I've ever owned

I began buying sports car in 1980; this is my third BMW, it's a 2004 330 convertible with a few performance improvements. If you like a car that has an actual feeling to it, this is the one for you. You will not like this car if you like a soft boulevard ride with lazy steering, it has the sport suspension and sport package, so it rides quite firmly. The smg transmission is great, and it's everything you would expect from a proper sports car, especially the color, black sapphire metallic. It;s not a cheap car to own, an oil change is about $90.00, I don't care, and the E46 body style is better looking than the newer models.

Best Car I've Owned

This car has a lot of power and is a very stylish sedan. The interior is beautiful and well laid out. You can tell that the designers of the 2004 bmw put a lot of thought and practicality into the car.

Would buy the 3 series again.

Loved this car. It's AWD had excellent handling in the snow and ice during the winter months. Very fast pick up speed for passing and merging on the highway. Great stereo system. However the fuel efficiency left a little to be desired. Guess you can't have everything.
