Feels like a luxury civic

I have 2009 335i sport. Sold and got the 2013 328xi sport.big mistake. This car looks nice and the interior is perfect but the performance is dull. Its not a fun car to drive at all. If you want power, performance and handling,get a 335i sport, you will enjoy every minute of driving. If you want comfort and soft ride,then this is for you. Glad i still have the z3.

Be kind and run away from BMW cars and Suvs!! This 2013 is my 4th Bimmer and my last. The enthusiasts drive is no more in 90% of what they make. And so...the problems and piss-poor dealership chain make it a brand no longer worth buying. 1st, I do my own maintenance. Without this I could not afford one (or I just refuse to pay $1000 per service visit. I don't know how they always bring the bill to $1000, but they do). I could go on and on how BMW hates the owners but I won't. 2 examples: most 06-2011 had failed electric water pumps, cost of repair at dealer 1200-1600 USD, and wheres the crankshaft sensor on a 2013 335i? Inside the starter. What? Good luck if you buy a BMW that's now built by marketing, legal, and engineers, not car people.

Neutered BMW

This is my 5th 3 Series & least impressive. In all fairness, the underwhelming ride is less of a reflection on BMW and more to do with compliance with the emissions laws. Aesthetically, the car is beautiful. The issue I have is the light, japanese rental car feeling it has relative to the ones I have had in the past. I definitely miss the inline 6 engine. I mean who puts a 4 cylinder into a performance car?

After owning for several months I think it is time to leave a review. Previously owning a 00 330i and 06 330i I was excited to be getting my first 335i. This car has been a disaster. It left me stranded on the side of the road at 900 miles after overheating, the entire fan system had to be replaced, the passenger side mirror is already broke and does not move, there is a constant vibration and rattle in the steering column, there is dull spots in the paint where it looks like it wasn't clear coated properly. I have already had this car in for repair's twice and without it for two weeks. Compared to my 00 and 06 this one does not even come close to the build quality. At least it looks nice.

The BMW navigation is a little difficult but I have no other complaints about the car. We bought this for a weekend fun car and for our adult kids to use when they were in town.
