Yikes, that steering

Within twenty seconds of pulling out from the dealership I said, "What's wrong w/ this car?" It is the steering. I'd read about the steering in the car magazines but I had no idea what it would feel like. It's as though someone at the factory forgot some part when putting the steering assembly together. It's just weird. Maybe I might get used to it if I bought the car but I don't want to get used this this. I've never felt steering like this in any other car I've owned/driven.

So I've had my 330i for about 9 months now. It does not disappoint. In fact, some huge surprises.........the best of which is the amazing gas mileage on long distances. Made it to Bucks County, PA from Charleston, SC in a little over a tank and a 1/4. First I thought I miscalculated but then I made that trip a couple of times after...same thing. What a great car!!

Although you can charge the batteries, the savings are for me, not great.

I replaced my BMW 335 xdrive coupe with this 340ix, the steering is lackluster, the performance is great. Hoping the new generation improves on some of the shortcomings here.
