I got the '09 M3i, 2.0 manual. I deliver pizza and do a lot of driving. I've driven nice cars; a porche, some bmw's and a few other nice cars so I'm trying to be completely objective with my review and will break down my scoring on the scale above. Performance: zippy, but not real fast, can't hang with the big boys but the handling is superb, which brought the score up to a 7/10. Comfort: I drive for HOURS! I'm never uncomfortable. 7/10. Fuel economy: I avg 27 mpg...depending on the use of AC and if i'm driving like a maniac which i sometimes do. 350-290 miles per tank.(usually around 320). 7/10. Fun to drive: that the handling is so surprisingly responsive combined
Do not try to drive this if you are 5'7''or taller

That is is fine for a city car but gets uncomfortable quick. The steering wheel is hard, the seats are uncomfortable. Within mos of buying it the visor broke off, the truck interior latch broke. I had a wreck in my neighborhood (a lady pulled away from the curb right into me), I was going no more than 15 MPH and the whole left front end crumpled in. Pretty scary.

Admittedly I paid too much for this car as I needed something quickly. It burns a lot of oil and things are falling apart on it. (Heat shield, sway bar link, exhaust hanger.). It also has rust developing above the left rear wheel. I would have given it 1 star but I believe it is somewhat a lack of care from previous owners. It is decent on fuel mileage but lacks features, mpg and reliability of my previous car, a Pontiac Vibe.
