My M-Poser wagon

This is a vehicle that responds to maintenance and at 212K it needs a lot of it! The previous owners had neglected basic service, with extended OCI's and likely incorrect LL oil. After four years and $7000 worth of BMW parts it will become an excellent and fun car to drive? It is a very strong engine and many owners have reached 500K+! However electrical problems abound such as terminal fretting, should you decide on a BMW be aware that the cooling system should be replaced at 80K. You really should have mechanical skills as paying for service will end your E46 love affair!

Reliable, nimble and fun to drive, I have enjoyed my first BMW thoroughly. Sporty feel, excellent handling on highway and twisty back roads.
Great little SUV substitute

After three SUVs that had trouble getting to 21 mpg on the highway, I finally concluded I needed hauling capacity, not testosterone, and this little BMW wagon. It is a joy to own and drive. My seventh BMW since 1980, and the first non-7 series, I find it has enough creature comforts to be near luxury class,and the reliability is 100%. Free scheduled maintenance and roadside assistance (not that I've needed this service) are a nice plus. Couldn't possibly like a car more.
they are everywhere

Just got over the break-in period. So far the car drives like what everybody has been raving about.No wonder I see more beemers on the road, esp. 3 series. Could have had more functional storage pockets around the car.

This is the perfect car for those who love to drive but want the ability to carry people and things. It looks good, goes where you point it, is good on gas, grips the road, has a very high quality "feel" and with the 5 speed manual and glass moon roof it drives like a sports car. It is perfect.
