Utter Garbage

I purchased a used 2011 328i several years ago. It had 73k on it when I bought it. I've had NOTHING but problems with it ever since. I've had leaky oil gaskets replaced twice and the car still spits oil everywhere. Usually it gets so bad that the belt just slips off and it needs to be towed. I've done all scheduled maintenance, yet it still doesn't matter. There are more electrical and computer-related gremlins in this car to list. It is a complete and utter pile of crap, and the moment I'm right side up on the loan I'm trading it. Don't buy one of these. You'll regret it. Even if money isn't an issue, you'll wind up stranded more often than not. I'm serious. These cars are dangerously unreliable.
Do not invest in this vehicle!!

This car is beautiful and fun to drive. At 32000 miles the recalls and Mechanical problems began, from coolant leak, heater coil, oil crank case, starter, leaking roof, head light assembly going bad, air bag recall etc. All of this before 100.000 miles

I used to lease a 328i 2008, and just bought a 328xi 2011. The front and back style updates are nice, and the iDrive interface and navigation system is Awesome, finally you can search effectively. The performance is as impressive as the previous one, can't complain but I was pretty disappointed by missing the following in the 2011 model compared to 2008 one!!: 1) Head rest is fixed, can't adjust back and forth 2) missing ashtray in back 3) Missing net on back of front seats 4) Slower sync with phone contacts 5) Missing soft cover on trunk covered area 6) Very annoying missing cargo net mounting hooks in back 'only 2!' can't use my old cargo net.
Ich liebe meinen BMW

I have owned Honda/Acura for over 20 years. I have never had a BMW or a German car. I cannot believe the handling of this vehicle! The car is well designed; everything is where it should be. The car is "smart' - automatically doing things that make sense, so the driver does not need to be bothered. Car is not equipped with unnecessary bells and whistles, but definitely has all the one's that it needs. This car is at the service of the driver, 100%. It feels like you are wearing it, rather than riding in it. The gas mileage is slightly lower than my Acura TL-S, but this car makes up for it in every other way. I'm in love!
Loving it so far

I looked around for a while. Found this one that was well maintained with excellent service history. The car is a blast to drive and pretty quick for stock! Ride is alot stiffer but it's also alot smoother than my previous car. Long road trips are alot easier cause the sport seats are that comfy!! Only downside is the charge pipe did break (a common issue) but it was mainly do to me having a little too much fun. Would highly recommend the n55 335i to anyone if they can afford it!
