BMW for Sale in El Cerrito, CA

BMW makes a great product. What many may not know is they loose value at an incredible rate. I purchased a used X1 last month. This one is 3yrs old had 21k miles and was priced at 22k. The list price only three years ago was 49k. While someone else took the depreciation hit I was able to take advantage of the loss and get a great value. I am averaging 30mpg and it’s fun to drive. Has all the bells and whistles of 2015 model year. I will say the back seat leg room is the only real complaint but with that being said it’s the smallest X series so that’s to be expected I highly recommend anyone looking for an awesome value to look at this model as well as any other model. You will not be disappointed with car or the value of one when purchasing one that is 3-4years old. Again BMW makes a great product. This is our third BMW and they have all made it comfortably past 100k with only routine scheduled maintenance and the usual repairs/replacement of wear items. Brake,tires,wipers

This car meets all of my needs. Not only a beautiful looking car. Love the way it handles. My first BMW and I know it won’t be my last. Great purchased I made.

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 car is so stylish and drives great! It’s a 4WD which will be great for the winter. It’s also great with gas. I am very happy with it so far!

Have the "M" package which adds quickness that compares with my Corvette. All wheel drive is fantastic; car is over engineered and fabulous. Made in America and we should be very proud!

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 bought this car about 3 months ago and I have no complaints. To afford the car, I had to sell my other 2 previous cars; ( 2016 Nissan Maxima SR) ( 2016 Lexus IS350 F-Sport) So i guess you can say I traded a couple great cars for this. But it was well worth it. I like the different driving modes. I mostly drive in the hybrid mode but if I'm not, I'm in track mode. It's got a nice exterior design but kinda plain interior design. I would highly recommend this car! I currently drive this along with a 2016 Mercedes Benz Cla-250. I reccomend both!

I traded a 535i and the 340 isn’t a downgrade in quality. Actually, it is smaller, sportier, handles and performs better which are the things I was seeking.

The X5 is a stylish car with great options and a smooth ride. The heated seats are a plus and the sound system is awesome

Do you want a sports car, just a tad bigger than a roadster, with a back seat, decent trunk, convertible, that can be your comfortable daily ride OR a ripping fun drive? The m235i fits the bill. With X drive it's no problem in any conditions. Whatever your mood, this one car delivers superlatively! Awesome handling, super quick, and surprisingly comfortable for a small sports car. For monster straight line acceleration it's the Vette. A long highway road trip ... That's what the Q7 is for. But the M235 convert is for EVERYTHING else.

Sporty, luxurious, comfortable, spacious, reliable and looks amazung . BMW really is the ultimate driving machine. All around, I dont think I'll drive another make again.

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 owned a 2007 BMW 328i 4-door for almost 5 years. That car was very comfortable and I would even say that it was fun to drive. As time went on, I found myself wanting more than the ~220ish horse power that the N52 engine had to offer. I also wanted something with steering that felt more connected to the road. I also began to notice that the 6-speed auto transmission was a bit clunky in the tip-tronic mode. I also realized I didn't need 4-doors... So I began the search for a car like the 328i, but with more power, tighter handling, and a better auto transmission, but with all the interior refinements that I had come to love about my 328i. The 135i fit the bill. The E85 135i with the N55 engine and 7-speed Dual-Clutch Transmission filled in the gaps I had noticed in my 328i. 300 horsepower is a lot of fun to drive, and you can actually use all 300 horses on a regular basis without getting killed. The M-sport package handling is a huge improvement over the 328i. I feel very connected to the road, and I can confidently toss the car around when I need/want to. The Dual-clutch transmission is amazing. The shifts are only noticeable through the sound of the M-sport exhaust: There is uninterrupted power to the wheels and you just hear this beautiful sound with each upshift. I love that all the interior things I loved about my E90 328i are still present and in the same place in the E82 135i. I did not have to compromise on any of the interior options. The iDrive seems lightyears ahead of the 2007 version. The headlights are beautiful, even if they do cost $1300 each. My only concern is the harshness of the ride, but that is par for the course with a sports coupe I suppose. I hypothesize that putting non-run flat tires on the car will improve the comfort of the ride, as it feels like these run flats are made of wood.

This car looks cool and nice, excellent in driving and handling. Great car to buy. I will strongly recommend this car to friends and relatives.

I was looking for a reliable car to start my professional career, something to get me back and forth to work without issue. This car is that car. It has great handling, the design looks good, and it has parking assist features. The only things that I dislike about the car are that there is no sunroof and that there is no navigation in my model.

I️ love all the features this car offers. Fuel efficient and high performance. Car is very fun to drive, and has a lot of power. I️ was sold on BMW 5 year, unlimited mileage warranty.

If you need a small car with basic features - no camera, no park assist, no alarm, manually adjusted seats - this one is for you.

great car to drive when new but after 2-3 years the battery range drops and potential issues are difficult to resolved. Have had issue with my REX for 6 months and still unresolved by BMW Park Lane in London. Service?? going in circles

I feel BMW builds the best cars. Love is in the details. True car lovers that design BMW. It handles like a dream and has power to boot.
