Used 2003 BMW 3 Series Consumer Reviews
Now I understand
Step, Premium, CWP, HK upgrade. Cost for the year $0. I had looked at a number of cars including the G35. The 330i outclasses them all. It's a blast to drive, the acceleration is extremely smooth but powerful, city mileage is about 24. It has poise, balance and will work with you when putting it through it's paces. Steering is taut and communicative. Climate control system is excellent. Interior ergonomics are excellent and finished nicely. The FM radio and CD is top-notch. The trunk looks small but can fit a lot of stuff and the rear-fold down seats will add some more room for the trunk. Unscheduled dealer visits: one - to fix loose weather stripping.

mst looking car-holds the road on the road-convertible tops is flawless-191- 20 mpg-ride can be hard-back seat uncomfordable for full size adults- glove box too small-needs deeper storage bin between seats-fast and steady-corners well-be carefull pulling up to concrete parking strips as front end catches on concrete and pulls out (off) of front end and is expensive to fix-service at dealers excellent-will buy new on in 2004

Made a Mistake
It is a noce car, but not worth the money. There are many other cars that I test drove that I sould have purchased. This car is a waste of money, they are surviving on their name only at this point.
Bare bones is better than no bones
The handling, breaking, solid feel is just remarkable. The others just did not measure up. I drove the automatic with a bunch of features but opted for the manual with NO options. I guess I am a bit old school but I love the control and feel that manual gives. I would have taken a manual with the premium package but none where on the lot. In the end, I loved the car more for its feel than for its options. It shifts smoothly and accelerates very well. Can go from 60 to 80 mph with a slight touch. It is solid. The best car I have driven.
Baby Boomer Beemer
Great two-seater that can hold four. Really fun to drive, especially with the top-down at night in Southern California. Superb stopping and acceleration. An M-3 in disguise.
