Seventh BMW
I've owned 3,5, and 7 series BMW models. Seven in total. All have been very reliable. This one has been the most fun. The surefooted handling and high power go together to make a remarkable ride. I've driven many other hi performance cars, but none as satisfying to drive. The Mustangs, Camaros, SRT Chryslers I drove, befor making my choice, were all very good. But none were as refined or as rewarding to drive. Although I'm a Chrysler retiree, with a large discount, I still bought the BMW.

Truly Ultimate Driving Machine
An almost perfect balance between handling and performance - this after fours years with a Lexus GS430, which was too fast for the handling. Don't much care for the i-drive, but otherwise the ergonomics are great.

Great car to drive
For those drivers who like a performance vehicle, with all the power and handling you reasonably need, this is a great car. This car is bored at 80 miles per hour, yet gets 28-30 miles per gallon. When you need a little boost, it goes from 80 to 100 instantly, yet stops quickly. I have a Jeep, Yukon, Subaru, but this is the car I look forward to driving when I just want to have fun.

What I expected
This is a great entry level luxury car, awesome performance with the twin turbo plus more than adequate gas mileage (~25.5 MPG HWY, 22.5 MPG City). The car handles the corners with breeze and hugs the curves just as well. It's a very fun car to drive, no question about it!! The compromise is the reliability - I had to take it to the dealer for a bad battery, seat belt arm doesn't catch the seat belt to bring it forward. This has got to be the crappiest seat belt design in a car but I knew that going into the purchase. The side view mirrors lose their memory so I'll be taking it to the dealer for that as well. Luckily, it's still under warranty and I have to say that the dealer has been very helpful with getting me up and running. Overall, a great car to drive, fun and sleek with superior performance but reliability could be a problem

2008 BMW335xi
I purchased the bimmer 18 months ago and have been pleased overall. I had my fuel pump replaced and have not had any problems. This car is Not a Lexus! You will feel almost every bump in the road. This is a drivers car. There is a reason why this is the most popular car by Road & Track employees. The run flats suck and I replaced them immediately. While this car comes stock at 300hp, I recently had mine dyno'd at 375 hp to the wheels. This was after about $1,000 in after market performance products. The N54 engine is a tuners dream! You can get extra horsepower easily if that is your sorta thing. Overall, this is a classy, performance car that is well worth the money!

Great Ride!
I've been pleasantly surprised by this car now that i've been driving it for 3 months. It is still fun to drive and the handling is appreciated when I need to make quick moves to pass or navigate a tricky situation.

Truly the Ultimate Driving Machine
I've owned many cars in my 63 years, but this is by far the best care I've ever owned. The twin turbo is outstanding and gives you the best power possible in a six. The retractable hardtop is easy and fun to use but their are some small rattles associated with it. I would recommend this car to anyone wanting a fun 4 seater that gives you the performance you crave. My son borrowed the car for 3 weeks and then went out and bought his own 3 series BMW
