First year model, need I say more?????

My Bmw Lemon, Lol — I've gone through 3 headlights, 1 lock mechanism, 5 tires, and God only knows what else will go wrong before the lease is up in September! Car is by far the most fun I've ever driven, I love the speed, but the mechanics sure do suck!

Bmw 325i Rocks — My family only uses it to get to our country house over in greenwood lake. It gets us there and back perfectly. Great handling. Great car. It is awesome. We bought it in ridgefield and they were perfect to us.

There are too many awesome things about my car to list!

Cons

I'm not a fan of the woodgrain trim on the dash. Also, black cars are very hard to keep clean.

Is A Bmw Really "the Ultimate Driving Machine"? — Although I wish it was manual transmission, I LOVE this car! I think from now on, all my cars will be German-based. Once you get a BMW, you will want another! Fast, fun, sporty, good in snow....I have no complaints. BMWs are definitely "The Ultimate Driving Machine"!

Seats are a bit still. Is sluggish when cold

Try A Beemer. You Will Like It. — I like the look and feel. It drives much better when driven fast. I drive a diesel and it gets great gas mileage. I also like the navigation system. I called it navigation nellie. She never lets me down. My wife calls it the other lady.

n/a

What A Car — the take off is superb, abs and handling is like super cruise. build quality is standard. The leather interior is sexy and the exterrior is worth dying for. as at now the maintanance is not too costly and the car is a must drive car.

Acceleration, safety, ease to drive

Cons

Trunk space is not very large

My Bmw — Good acceleration, amazing driving, comfortable, safe. sound is excellent and gadgets such as bluetooth for mobile phone connection is very useful and helpful during driving. i.pod connection gives extraordinary music portability. Seat is very comfortable for long driving distances. It is very safe to drive with those special tires.

Nothing

Bmw — BMW has always been my favorite. Even though 320i needs more horse power to become perfect, but I still love it. One good thing about BMW 3 series, it is a back wheel drive car, which means it allows me to drift without using the hand break.

Bmw 325i 2006 — awesome car , never owned a better one. great steering and handling. They use these to test tires actually becuase of the superb steering and feel tht this car has. I would recommend this to anyone willign to spend around 25,000. You wont regret it. Although the reliability is sometims quesionable, this car is a god.

A Glam Machine. — Overall- i just love the car. Performance- acceleration is super, braking is on the spot, handling is brilliant. Appearance - for a machine, its quite glamorous. Build quality - is quite strong. Cost of ownership- is quite pricy to maintain. Fun factor - its a breeze to drive esp. on the right road.
