Too bad that the BMW diesel 328d was phased out. Great handling along with great fuel economy. The car is extremely well balanced between the front and back and the 18 inch wheels complete the terrific handling. Amazing range at 600 miles highway.

Have a 2018 330 i series, X drive. My wife drives it for the most part, me on the weekends. It is quick, I will give it that, it flies and you have to really watch the speedo. For me the absolute worst thing about this car is the horrendous run flats. Awful tires, lots of nibble and wandering all over the place, so for a car that is supposed to be the ultimate driving machine? Not so much. I would have changed the run flats for regular premium tires but, open the trunk and there is no place to put a spare or donut, nothing there without taking up room in an already tight trunk. So the run flats stay and the BMW 330 Xi remains an enigma because of these ridiculous tires

The short range EV will benefit those the most with total commutes of less than 12-14 miles in real world driving between charges. I’m averaging 41 mpg combined since I purchased the vehicle about 5000 miles ago. One tank averaged 50 mpg since I was doing so much short distance driving. Electronic steering is definitely a downgrade from my 2011 335d. I don’t feel as connected to the road and the steering isn’t as tight as the 335d. The ride is familiar and I am happy with the styling as well. I’ve heard good things about reliability so looking forward to worry free driving until I possibly go full EV either the i4 or another manufacturer. A lot is coming down the pipeline.

Had always wanted a Bimmer.

2018 BMW 3 Series 320i 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

Had been a loyal Lexus driver (5 sedans, one SUV). Downsides to an IS in 2016 and was very unhappy all around. The car did not handle well, poor mileage, Bluetooth with phone was terrible, pickup poor. I had always wanted a BMW sedan so went on line and studied for several days. Most of my drives local, side streets, short trips. Little freeway driving and distance driving rarely. Test drove the 320i and was very pleased. The handling, size, comfort were perfect for my needs. People complained that it wasn’t sporty enough, maybe if I did a lot of distance driving I’d agree, but for short city trips it’s fine. Size great for parking at Costco! Overall very happy with my little Bimmer.

I have owned SUV's since before they were called that, my first Toyota 4 runner in 1987. Have owned 4 X5's lately. Bought a new 328d wagon and am stunned how a fairly heavy wagon can absolutely fly and get the mileage it does. I'm getting 5.2 liters/100 km or 42 mpg (US). Loaded with great features handling is superb and 5 star safety rating. Great rig.

I bought a 2018 320XI used in 2019 for $30K with about 4K miles on it in Europe (US Specs). At that price point this car is a steal and I like all the performance while saving over 12K by buying a year old car. That price point included the moon roof and sport package. This is the second BMW I've bought as a program car and I am highly satisfied. At the time of purchase my concerns included the 188 horsepower engine. While the power is not as instantaneous as the 239 horsepower of my 2008 328i it is more than enough for the American road. This car will get up and go and in Europe on the autobahn it does 120-130 MPH nicely. The same over-engineered features that make you like a BMW are present on this car. including over-steer. I have to ask: why waste money on a BMW with a performance package in the 50K range you will never use in the states to it's full potential? I'm also seeing a lower cost of ownership compared to the 328i since it runs on regular gas, not premium like the 328i. This model is one step up from BMW entry level but it is a very satisfying daily driver. Mechanical issues: none. The four year warranty that transferred with the car also provides peace of mind.Highly recommend this as a used or program car.

No longer a sport sedan

I recently traded in a 2010 328i for a 2019 330xi with the M package. The new car is more than sufficiently powerful, the steering is precise, the trunk is usefully larger, and it seems very well made. Also, the new tech has some real advantages. That said, in comparison with the old car, it is lumbering rather than agile..the suspension is less supple, I miss the manual transmission, and the sweet sound of the non-turbo six cylinders. Another issue is the sport seats, which I find constrict my legs so as to excite my sciatica. In short I think that if BMW produced the old cars with some added electronics, they would sell like hotcakes...

The 3 series wagon is a gem of a sleeper. And if you find a diesel powered one, buy it! How can a car this powerful (X drive makes it exceptionally sure footed, especially with the incredible amount of torque this engine puts out), yet still get solid 30 ~ 40+ miles to gallon in real world driving??? I talked my wife into it...now she'll never part with it. We were lucking to get one pretty heavily equipped - only missing the surround view cameras we have on on X5, which would have made it perfect. The M package ads a very distinctive look (steering wheel looks and feels far better) and the sport seats are PERFECT in their support and adjustability for those 500+ mile drives on a single tank of diesel! We've loaded it up with all sorts of people/gear and the fold down flexibility of the rear seats can't be beat! Our daughter was out for a few days and borrowed it - loved it so much we purchased another! And you won't know it's a diesel at all - starts instantly, ZERO smoke (actually cleaner than our gas X5...exhaust pipe end stays clean!) and they refill the DEF when serviced - we've never had to add it. We've got 50k on it...and expect to keep it for twice that.

Paired with a turbo charged engine and a remarkable 8 speed transmission, this car is a fantastic driving machine. I put on about 30k miles a year, and it drives great in all conditions. Lover the driver assistance package with the heads up display. The interior is a litte understated but very nice and upscale. Great color combinations. Technology and entertainment and sound system are great. Drives and feels solid in all road conditions.

I love this car. It looks amazing with the 19” rims. There is a learning curve due to all the tech, but it is fantastic.
