Driven everything, and now a BMW

This car is comfortable, great driving position and great visibility even when looking behind you to reverse like few people do since backup cameras became standard. The engine has plenty of go, no problems merging into traffic or passing. Corners are solid and confident, drivability is wonderful. The cabin is quiet with little road or engine noise at highway speeds which can result in difficulties managing your speed, but for me this will come in time and experience with the car but at least you can carry on a conversation with the passanger(s) or a call without having to speak over normal levels. Solid fit and finish, quality feel to the materials and even on lower trim lines there are a lot of base options. The technology has a learning curve but I was pretty quick on the uptake. In certain steering wheel positions, the digital cluster is obscured. I appreciate the technology but figured the design team would have seen this as an issue. Spend 10 min in your driveway and you will be fine as once you set most of the settings that you feel you need to. Biggest gripes, no Andriod auto and Apple connectivity is a paid subscription. You can buy a Hyundai where these are standard. BMWs connected drive does a good job but when you use the BMW connected drive app on your phone to upload a destination to your car and it leverages Google you want to ask why. The only other complaint is the auto off. Turn it off when you start the car, it is WAY too aggressive. The first few times when your are pulling into a parking spot or your garage and the engine kills, it is a bit unnerving. I cannot provide reliability information as I only have 735 miles on mine. Off the lot you get a 3/36 maintenance and 4/48 warranty which is a very nice perk.

Better than the 320

The 2019 new model has many upgraded features from the 320. The body style and weight of the car is also better than the previous versions. I love everything about this car.

Still the ride, drive and handling benchmark ...

Now with added tech. Self driving is well designed and integrated. Easy to use and makes monotonous driving easier. I had a 2012 335i and this is almost as fast and just as much fun. Don’t believe the bs about the car being too large to handle well. If you know how to drive, the car responds as it should. Close to my 2001 E46, which was their goal. Perhaps even surpasses it. Too soon to tell.

This car is gorgeous. I love it

I love the 330i. It's stylish, fast, and feels solid. The technology is over the top. It has every safety feature you can image. Great car!

The technology and performance of the 330i is tops

The car has met all of my needs, except for the lack of "comfort" unlocking, which I had on my last BMW. The upgrade in the 3-Series is unquestionably a major step up, at a reasonable price. Some of the changes from the last generation of 3-Series needs to be learned.

A pleasure to have a new comfortable car!

Such a luxury driving this car. I am so happy with its style & performance. Deciding to get this car was made easier because of my excellent salesman! I am in love with my new 3 series. It meets & exceeds my expectations.

Great Update to the 3 series

I owned the prior generation 3 series and the new 330 is a significant improvement. The new interior is beautiful and modern. It took me a couple days to figure out the new controls but now love them. The car is surprisingly quiet and smooth. The new seating is spectacular. I look forward to my commute every day.

It's like seeing the e46 for the first time

This model was built and designed impeccably - beautiful inside and out. The tech is just fantastic and ease of use is spot on. I cannot wait to see what is next.
