The car itself is almost exactly what was hoping to buy. Comfortable (although a bit loud - my pickup is quieter), great fuel economy, no unexpected repairs. Biggest gripe is the headlights. It was my mistake for not checking to see how the headlights were acceptable. The standard headlights are atrocious. After putting 50k miles on this car in just over 2 years, the car was only worth 30% of what I paid for it. I was really kinda shocked. I typically trade cars frequently, a little over 50% is about normal. I guess the VW diesel thing hit BMW too.

....but someone ought to. No neck-snapping acceleration, especially with the ix version. More than ample power, however. Most importantly, fuel consumption in hybrid territory. Just did a quick (average speed 68.2 mph) Philly-Washington, DC round trip including stop-and-go on both ends. Less than a half tank of gas, 39.1 mpg according to the meter. No, I wasn't drafting 18-wheelers.

how sad , when once you could by a premium , howling lovable Straight 6 for the money , and now what you get is a 4 cylinder sounding like a broken blender machine , and a lot of "Green" blah blah blah ! and when you complain about it , them start bragging about how fast and powerful and "Economical" it is , this isn't what a BMW (and more generally a sports car is all about) ,no amount of savage power is going to replace its "Soul" , that is now gone .

Let's be realistic; with so many cars on the line, there are many choices, unlike in the 90s BMW was the only one. My 5th Bmw from 99M3-4 328's 2015 was the worst first off; the interior is outdated. Most components are plastic, including the pulleys, which left me on the side of the road and almost killed the engine due to the belt from the tensioner failing I treat my cars with supper delicacy, including service always beyond what's expected. It is a very high-maintenance BMW compared to the older models good on gas, but you need to use 91 + octane.

Update on Gotta Have It?

Yes, Gotta have it. There is a real break-in period. There are noticeable improvements in shifting smoothness ( 6 spd manual), although maybe it's me that is breaking in to the car. This car is plenty fast (for me, anyway) and a great, quiet cruiser. Just for fun, I reset the computer after getting on 95 for a trip up to NJ. With a steady 70 mph on cruise control, the consumption was an average of 43 mpg over approx. 100 miles. Granted, that is purely just a 70 mph cruise with no stopping or much accelerating, except for tolls and pit stops, but it is an eye-opener when you look at that display. Around the suburban area where I live, the mileage hovers around 30 mpg. My usual drive mode is 1st, 2nd, 3rd, then 6th gears, revving to about 3000-3500 in 1st and 2nd. Not exactly a feather foot. Recently, at 20000 miles through an allowed 45000 miles on my lease, and halfway through the time of the lease, I took off and saved the run flat tires. They will be reinstalled when I return the car. The new Michelin pilot sport ps 3 plus all season tires make a huge difference, like going from square to round tires. The rolling resistance is far less (I can push the car with one hand). It is tranformed into a quiet, fast, road eater. I added a can of slime and a small air compressor in case of a flat. This is common on higher performance cars like the BMW M and some Mustangs. I highly recommend this change.
