Best car I've ever owned. The superlatives could go on for quite a while. Turbo four is efficient and ready to go when needed. One year in and it still charms and amazes.

I bought this car as a CPO about 2 years ago. Car is great. The only downside are the seats that are definitely too hard and lack of lumbar adjustment. Breaks could also be slightly stronger... Other than that, performance and quality are outstanding. Just like any other BMW, avoid using regular fuel (87) so you can really get what a BMW engine can offer (smoothness, strong and quick reactions without any Knocks and pings).

Too bad

I'm sure it's been written many times before and I'm going to sound like an old fart, but it's sad what has become of this car. I owned a 2001 330 Xi for 14 years and it was the most fun car to drive. The minute you got in it and started to drive, it made you smile. Good in city and on snow, and punch it into a turn or a corner and the back end sits down and keeps the whole thing under control. I'm not a sports car aficionado, but that is how I imaging a sports car should be (and actually how my BMW motorcycle is). IMO, the "old 3" really was an ultimate driving machine. The newer versions have lost this, and yes I've driven a bunch of different models (328, X, 335, etc.). It's a real shame. I now drive an Audi A4, which I felt was better but still doesn't approach my old 3, and is about 2x the price. It's sad and somewhat hard to understand.

BMW has officially gone "mainstream" and lost it

I am the owner of the previous model of the 3 series, and had this car as a loaner for a month and over 2k miles in driving. It fixes everything that was "annoying" with the old model; a nice smooth 8 speed automatic transmission, really strong acceleration, no more bone-jarring over NY/NJ potholes, and a functional navigation that actually has useful up-to-date traffic information. City MPG is not much better, but highway is where it shines (~30% better MPG). Unfortunately, the negatives outweigh the positive. Starting the car, you hear this annoying diesel like clatter. The power steering is one of the best I've ever driven, but still lackluster in feedback. Brake pedal is nice and firm like the BMW norm, but it takes forever to stop and also lurches when used in force. Interior plastics have gone down to Honda/Toyota levels - tap the console under the CD changer and you will hear lots of clack. Overall, much more plastic and less wood. If you are a typical Mercedes/Audi driver, this 3 series generation will appeal - all the "complaints" from previous generations such as stiff steering, firm ride, etc. are gone with this car. If you're a BMW purist, you will hate this car as much as I did. I have never been happier to turn in my loaner car, to get my real car back!

Disappointed with Comfort

I will start by saying I own a 2014 328xi. I love the acceleration and the way the car handles. The gas mileage is phenomenal! My problem is comfort. I have taken this car on 2 long trips and both times came home with a herniated disc.....L4,L5. I was not doing any heavy lifting so I know that was not the cause. My chiropractor said that he has many patients who own BMWs in all models and herniated discs are a problem. He has even written BMW about this. If BMW can make such a wonderful car mechanically, why can't they make a comfortable one?? I traded this BMW in for a Nissan Murano and am much happier!
