Not Up the Mark

The BMW is called the Ultimate Driving Machine but the fine print should be "Between Frequent Trips to the Shop". We spent $12000 (yes, twelve thousand) in repairs in about 2.5 years on this car. We had the car for 5 years between 48K miles and 82K miles. Even during the warranty period the car had several problems. It had to be towed twice to the shop. In the end I lost confidence in the car and traded it immediately after spending almost $1500 in repairs. As a luxury car, it was not great. The automatic climate control was not up the mark - generating hot and cold air randomly. Even dealer experience was poor - nothing compared to Lexus.

Best Car I have ever owned! Never needs service, except normal check ups. You can drive the car hard and have some fun and it won't "break".

The Good, Bad & The Ugly

The Good: Love the styling and performance, and friendly service people. It will all be over in 2 more months. The Bad: Hated all the service problems and service is over-priced (e.g., too expensive - new battery- $300+; Brakes- $600; annual servicing $600; 2 new tires at 35,00 miles-$430+; headlamps; brake-lights; new belts, etc - too frustrating to list all problems). The Ugly: Salesperson lied about cost of service and maintenance("$50 maximum up to 100,000 miles). Service and maintenance costs were totally unexpected.

Want a convertible, but can't let go!

This is definitely a one of a kind! Almost 2 yrs now I've owned this devil of a car. I love it so much; I cannot buy the convertible I really want. Has 290,000 miles on it, but looks practically showroom condition. Sure it costs money at the shop, but if you want cheap repairs, buy a cheap car. This is a top of the line automobile; the difference between living in a mansion or being satisfied with less.

Love & Hate

This is the most fun car i've ever driven. Great performance and handling. Hugs the curves and rides like a dream on the open highway. But MAN !!! was I in for a surprise when it came to the repairs. Way too costly to maintain. And didn't expect the engine to go out at 100K. Good thing BMW fixed that problem quick. Get the engine checked if you plan on getting a '95 ($7,000-$10,000).
