Used 2016 BMW 3 Series Sedan Consumer Reviews
Girlfriend loves the "her" car!
Got a CPO 2016 with less than 15K miles from local BMW dealer(Century BMW-Greenville, SC). Sales process was fantastic and made very easy! Dark gray exterior with black, non-leather seats...with the Sport package(a must). Handles wonderfully, but not a hot rod...at least for me. Girlfriend, for whom I bought it, loves it though as compared to her old 2013 Honda Accord. Doesn't have the navigation or even heated seats, but it is the core of what I grew up knowing about BMWs: great handling cars, with a torquey engine, and very-good build quality. Anxious myself to take it on a trip to air it out a little. She tells me the gas mileage is as good, if not better, than her Honda Accord. That's a welcome thing to hear! Hard to beat getting such a nice car for the same price as a brand new, but more mundane car. Only small complaint relates to the run-flat tires...not cheap at about $300/tire. Oh well...

Everything I could ask for!
Car rides great, drives great and gets great gas mileage. Love the way it handles and performs. Could not be happier with our purchase. We have owned the car for over 2 years and it has been in the shop only once for a minor problem besides the routine service. It came with 4 years free maintenance. 😎😎

LOVE THIS CAR
Spacious but nicely fits into parking spaces. The car drives beautifully and is so good with steering. You can feel the power and accelerate, but it's not loud or noisy. Couldn't be happier.

Third BMW... lease it instead
OK, here is a fair review of my third BMW. I have had 2 ...5 series...in the past. I bought them. After they got out of warranty they cost me a lot of money. So this time I decided to lease a car. Three series is smaller than the five ...obviously ..but it has grown over the years. The backseat has plenty of room. I find the three series less smooth.four-cylinder engine is a bit underpowered. I hate stop start function. Just turn it off. German interiors can be spartan, options add up quickly. There are a few nitpick cons I have. I hated that you have to unlock the door from the center of the console. Fake leather seats not quite as comfortable as the real leather. I drive is a mixed bag. The back up camera screen too small for a luxury car.Japanese car interiors are more intuitive. Controls are easier to read. If you don't get navigation then you can't speak to call... we have to use the rotary I drive dial. Get the parking sensors and the automatic door lock feature at a minimum. All-wheel-drive is a plus. I leased my BMW certified preowned. Got a great lease rate and the maintenance included. What I do like is the drive, the feel, The car hugs the road and gives you a great driving experience. I like the three driving mode feature...comfort,sport, eco.I got the white with black interior. I love this color combination.

The High Price Of Luxury.
For a German car that costs so much on initial purchase, It does not hold it value very long. If you like speed and tight performance, this could be the car for you. You feel every bump, crack and crannies in the road. The run flat tires with stiff sidewalls, adds to the performance level and harsh ride. The 2.0 liter turbo has plenty of get up and go upon request. The gas mileage was pretty good even while driving at 80 mph freeway speeds. You can hear the husky sound of the motor. Was not impressed with the purchase experience and readiness of the vehicle at pickup time. This soured my impression of BMW overall. The service department was unable to find a noise in the dashboard that was heard after a hard braking then accelerating. I usually don't buy the same brand twice.
