2016 BMW 428 Gran Coupe for Sale in Los Angeles, CA

This auto is exactly what we wanted and needed. It is super fast yet economical, and it has great styling. Great choice!

I drove the 430i D iesel GranCoupe for four days this summer as a Hertz rental in Switzerland. Having owned four BMW automobiles, my expectations were high, and each was exceeded by this vehicle. First of all, it sports a handsome profile, particularly for a four-door sedan. What sets it apart most strikingly is the sloped roofline that flows into the 5th door-a hatchback. I had no idea beforehand that BMW created a hatchback cargo carrying option to a sedan that was not akin to the X4, X6 or GT models which, to me, appear to each suffer an identity crisis. They seem to be unable to determine if they are an SUV, crossover or sedan. The GranCoupe leaves no doubt as to its origins. It is a sports sedan on steroids. My rental had the sport package with sport seats, paddle shifter and, I believe a tighter suspension. If the later was not an option, then even more credit goes to BMW engineering for creating a four-door sedan that handles the hairpin curves of mountain roads like an "M Series", albeit without the neck-snapping power. But that was fine because even as a diesel-powered grown up it had plenty of gumption to take the steep grades and highway on-ramps with ease. The cabin was almost dead silent when cruising, and the engine barely audible when accelerating. The sport seats were encapsulating, perfect for aggressive driving and pleasant for highway cruising. Although I have always preferred the German style firm seat construction to the U.S. lounge chair variety, I do recognize that some uninitiated mortals prefer to lounge when mobile rather than truly drive a remarkably engineered road machine. My rental was equipped with all the latest gadgets for safety, including lane departure warning (not correction), blind spot warning and heads up display. I was quite skeptical about the first two intrusions upon my freedom of driving expression, although after a day or so, began to realize the benefit of having the "second, and perhaps more observant, set of eyes" at a driver's disposal. This tends to level the playing field when dealing with relatively carefree European road warriors for whom close range license plate inspection of any vehicle they may be closing on is a national pastime, as is the game of "guess which way I am going to pass you". The most surprising benefit, however, came from the heads up display that gave not only the vehicle speed but the posted speed limit as well. France and Switzerland are among the nations that have adopted "speed camera" enforcement in lieu of posting Smokey with a laser gun on under a bridge. It simply has to be a money maker, because they will tag you for as little as 5 mph over the posted limit, the fines are stiff and you never know it happened until that unwelcomed letter with a citation arrives in the mail. The speed limits follow the sine curve theory of physics and vary with such unpredictability that the unwary are raw meat for the hungry cameras. Unless you have a heads up display that sticks the changes right in front of you, the unpleasant letters in your mail after driving in Europe should come as no surprise. My next car is sure to have this feature. Regardless of what it costs, it will pay for itself by avoiding traffic infraction fines. All things considered, this BMW model is as good as it gets, at least for someone like me. I prefer more room than my 3 series has offered and still want the feel of a true road machine that can also haul ski equipment and lawn furniture in the back end without being a wagon or SUV. In fact, my search for a 4 series Gran Coupe has begun. Well done Hans.

This vehicle is so great on gas and the ride is very smooth. Not to mention, this is by far the sexiest car I've ever had the pleasure to drive.

I have had my pre-owned 2015 428 Grand Coupe for two months now, and it is my favourite BMW of the several I have owned over the years (128, 135, X1, X3, 528). I love that when I'm sitting in the low-slung drivers seat, I feel like I'm in a sporty car (if not exactly an outright sports car), yet I have the everyday functionality of a four door sedan, and the utility of a hatchback - I call it my mini-SUV! As a cyclist, I love that I can quickly and easily pop down the back seats and load a bike in the hatch without any effort. The driving experience hits the sweet spot for me - put it in Sports mode (which I typically do) and it is responsive and quick, yet you don't pay for that fun factor with a jarring ride. Want to be a bit of a hooligan? Pop the shifter over into "manual" mode and use the paddle shifters, and get ready for a big old grin on your face. This car is a delight! If you have the choice, get the "Comfort Access" option with the "no touch" hatch entry - wonderful!

I actually own a 2015 Grand Coupe and wanted d to compare the 2016 to my 2015 428I. I love the car. It is truly a to performer. The only reason for not rating the overall rating 5 stars is the couple of features that I believe should have been included on this car. The first design feature I miss is the park and Hold feature that ai have on my 2011 535 BMW. another design feature is the lack of th over thre door hand holds which make getting in and out of this low slung grade Coupe presents. Again the over door hand hols are nice to have like in my 535. The other design feature in the 2015 428I that I recommend changing is the space between the accelerator and the break. On several occasions I have had my foor engage both petals at the same time. This is a major safety issue that I hope has been corrected by BMW.

First time with a BMW, but I have to admit this is one nice car. From the exterior color to saddle brown interior this car has it all.

This car is comfortable, better constructed than any American vehicle and a jewel to look at. The performance options are great and fun to drive.

I went from a 3 series bmw to a 4 series bmw have not had it very long but I love my new car already

Its practical with 4 doors and good space for 5 passengers but at the same time a coupe design which gives it a beautiful aggressive sporty looks specially with the Msport package. Great driving experience and performance.

Has a lot of get-up and go, quicker than some V-6 vehicles out there. Very good on gas mileage and easy to drive for commuting and longer drives.
