bye bye Beemer
I have hard far too many problems. After 2000 miles an annoying buzz developed in the dash. The dealer acknowledged the problem but was under to fix, told me this is part of owning a 'Performance Car'. Air conditioner quit working in the middle of the summer. After 8,000 miles it refused to start, leaving me stranded out of town. The firm, 'sport' suspension grows tiring on any thing other than short trips. I expected much more from this car. I am very disappointed.

I love my car!
I've got an Audi wagon & BMW wagon and love them both. The BMW drives like a dream...
Maybe a Lemon
I bought my 2005 325i from a friend who had purchased it at auction a year earlier. I travel 50 miles one way to work daily, so the miles have been piling up. The car had 35K miles when I bought it. It now has 94K miles. Have spent close to $3,000 so far, including driving side window controller replacement, thermostat replacement, bush kit replacement, and new set of tires. Seems every time I get one thing fixed, something else shows up. Now, gotta have brake job and replace two worn hoses. Also, had accident (no fault), and now fighting with insurance co. because repairs not up to par. But still love to drive it! And at 94K miles, I guess the repairs are expected.
Excellent BMW
As fun to drive as it looks. Everyone should try one sometime in their life.
