Great car, great gas mileage, luxury feel with sporty handling. The car has had no major issues, maintenance is easy and parts are easy to find, it drives and handles like a dream, fuel economy is great for a 1997 car, the interior feel of the car is very nice. The car over all is a luxury car with a sporty feel, it is also a steal for the price!

Car is extremely tight even with high miles. Not loose in the front end like most high mile cars and smooth riding. I've owned Fords and Chevys before and they don't compare. Repairs can be expensive but if you can do anything yourself it's not to bad, plus shopping around for parts on the internet can save you loads of money. Bavarian Auto is one of the best places to get parts for BMW's online and you will be sure to get the right parts and not waste your time and money. 135,000 miles is still considered low miles for a BMW, but any american made car with over 100,000 is pushing it. I would still feel very confident with driving this car on long trips like Florida too.

Performance - great pickup and killer torque! Build Quality - second to hmm ferrari! Appearance - classy yet doesn't stick out amongst the crowd Fun Factor - fun to drive and corners on rails Cost of Ownership - keep the maintenance up and it'll last forever all in all its a great car as a daily driver and in 3 years will be my track car once its fully built up.

I loved this car! It is solid, fun to drive, great handling and comfort. The performance was good for stock but add a couple grand and it'll be great! the quality was great overall and it holds up excellent in a crash. I had a guy total mine by T-boning us. The car did it's job and kept us safe. We were at 0 mph and he was doing 40+. The car looked great with a nice tint job and I still miss driving that car!

Jaw dropping performance even for automatic. The tires chirp everytime during hard acceleration. For an older car the quality is through the roof its soo amazing how well its held up through the years. The previous owner took very very good care of it as will I just because I feel its owed to this car for having the honour of driving it. It loves to just drive and be driven hard. 184,000 kms on it and still kicking ass at everyturn. For my first BMW cant go wrong although would have preferred a 5spd but I do not regret buying this car for $9900.
