Tons of fun

One of the few convertibles still made with a manual transmission that’s not a muscle car. Have absolutely loved driving this car although it does tend to chew through tires.

The BMW 330: An Excellent Gateway to the BMW Line

My first car, a 2006 BMW 330ci convertible, was the very definition of a BMW. For anyone thinking of purchasing the 330ci, I strongly endorse the vehicle for a plethora of reasons. First off, there's the 330ci's performance. Although it's no M3, the 330ci still has plenty of oomph derived from its sweet-sounding straight six engine. Furthermore, the car hugs the road like - well, a BMW. On my specific 330ci, I had tires that were balder than the top of Trump's head, yet it never slid out unexpectedly in slippery conditions; it's clear that BMW designed the chassis with handling being the first priority. In addition, my 330ci that was equipped with the sports package (firmer suspension and more aggressive seat bolsters) was actually incredibly comfortable to drive. Both the ride and the seats were just sporty enough without sacrificing comfort. Finally, with all of that being said, someone in the market for one of these is likely begging the question: how reliable is it? For a BMW, very. Coming from another make, it may take some time to get used to repair bills - just understand that you're purchasing an older German sports car, find a reliable independent mechanic, and brace for financial impact.

Beautiful car!!

I absolutely love this car, sad to let it go... it is fun to drive, very eye catching. There are so many features i.e. handles light up at night, touch to lock, push start, leather seats, ect.

Great car for the price

For the price these cars sell for they are very reliable luxury sports sedans. I've owned this car for less than a year and I am still finding amazed by some of the options and overall engineering of this vehicle. It is far better than any car I have ever owned even though it is 14 years old now.

Great entry level Enthusiast BMW

A $50,000 original price BMW. Would love to keep it but new career requires a pick up truck. It’s a blast to drive but no time to enjoy

One of the best cars I've owned

A pure joy to drive - especially for the class. Despite being a 15 year old car, it feels and drives better than most modern cars. The e46 is almost unparalleled and is a true driver's car. I owned the convertible version which was awesome during the summer months, but comfortable during the colder months as well. Like any car - it does require you to be proactive and maintain it.
