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.

I bought my 325I back in March(2003 Model) primarily for its engineering/quality. I have been sorely disappointed. It has been just 7 months and car's faulty transmission is being replaced. Bottomline I was looking at 525 as my future car and now I am not.

Doors (power windows, speaker trim)

power window regulators continually go bad (front and back), speaker trims break (cosmetic issue) in the doors (front). I'm tired of windows that won't go up or down without things breaking (breaking plastic, ginding sounds, and power windows completely inop). - "Regulator", as the shop personell blaim, needs redesigned.

Good Car, Bad Service

Okay, the car is good (I have the sports package and premium). I love driving it. It isn't the best luxury/sports car I have owned, but its not bad. Here's the bad: the dealership (Beverly Hills BMW) sucks. Bad sales team, so-so service, no loaners. BMW needs a national loaner policy (each dealer loans courtesy cars only if you purchased at that dealership--some don't even have loaners). I mean, you spend 50k on a car, the least you should get is a courtesy car when you take it in to service (I have had to take the car in three times so far and only 6000 miles). Can anyone say Lexus?
