Fantastic drivers car
I wish they made this car in manual transmission. Looks fantastic, drives great, comfortable yet supportive seats. Reliability is not perfect. I one year of ownership between 55k-65k mile mark, we had a lock actuator stop working, and a fuel neck replaced. Overall great car. Fast, fun, and comfortable grand touring convertible. Very quiet when top is up, feels just like a hard top car.

Show stopper - like owning two different cars
This car is perfect for someone who loves feeling special. The 435 was first made in 2014, so there are very few others on the road (unlike the 3 series.) Additionally, Midnight Blue is a very rare color for BMW (not your boring black or white) and mine is simply stunning to look at. The Dakota Saddle Brown interior is also unusual, and suits the exterior well for a very elegant color combination. I picked it up as a European Delivery, so this car is extra special in the US with the European features (side mirrors, bumper features) She is perfect for classy cruising around town in the summertime... and fast/powerful when you want her to be! (I got her to 135 mph on the Autobahn!)

Beautiful Ride Turns Heads Everywhere
I love this car - I think I would love it more if it were a standard shift rather than an automatic with paddle shifters. The controls are very intuitive, although BMW could make the Bluetooth music connection through spotify and such easier. There is a surprising amount of room in the back seat, and the split seat fold down is a great plus for carrying golf clubs, etc. BMW could do a lot better with the audio system.

Beauty on wheels
Great power, great attention to detail and fun to drive. The steering should give more feedback then it does.

A joy to drive
This is my second BMW and like the first one, it is the best vehicle dollar for dollar. It is reliable, attractive, fun, and will continue to be all of those for years.

A Spirited Driving Machine
I bought this 2014 BMW 435i xDrive lightly used and have found it a huge improvement over my previous 2011 328i xDrive. Its inline six turbo smoothly delivers strong acceleration. The coupe configuration provides much more entry/exit room for the front seat passengers without running afoul the mid pillar as I always did in the 328. The backseat is probably a little better as well...once you get into it. The driving mode switch really works to take you from an economy and comfort-based ride at one end of the spectrum to a significantly more potent vehicle with a stiffer suspension and real get-up-and-go on the other. I love the exterior design. My car has the standard (non-sport) seats with Dakota leather. They are comfortable, but a little boring looking. I would opt for the sport seats if I was doing this again. Most importantly, I am grateful someone still makes a 6 speed manual with AWD. I will likely hold onto this car for a very long time. There are very few other cars available today that can give you such a spirited, engaging and refined driving experience.

The best luxurious, cool and fast I ever rode
The car is very stylish, great looking feom outside and inside, easy to impress people with it. You just with the keys. BMW did great job in the 4 series line. I own it for 3 days so far but the previous owner owned it for 2 years/42k miles. She didn't complain of the performance, reliability and features. I checked it in a certified dealership, they validate the previous owner opinion. BMW has some recent issues with the 5 and 7 series, not with the 4 series so far. The back seats are comfy, the car can fit for 3 people, but not the most spacious room. It works for singles or couples with no kids. Hint: get the 435 or 440 which has the 3L V6, better exp than 428 or 430. Hint2: BMW took a great care of the car interior, I love the driver assistance package, winter package and the sport line package. Consider them!

Fantastic driver's sports coupe!
The 435i coupe is a fantastic sports car for the driving enthusiast. The car is well balanced, ergonomically efficient, powerful, and handles like a dream. BMW really nailed it with this sports coupe and I expect the 435i to be the leader of its class for years on end.
