2007 BMW 3 Series 335xi 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6M)

Review

After an exhaustive (and exhausting!) search my wife and I finally decided to get our first BMW. Having driven a series of 5 Saabs in a row it was a time to move on. We explored BMW, Audi, Infiniti, Lexus, Acura, Volvo, and Cadillac. Based on reviews, prestige/market segment, price, features, and overall driving quality the BMW was a clear winner. Love the car and the engine is amazing. It continues to win me over every time we take it out! Mileage has been better than expected and we are enjoying learning how to use all of the features the car offers.

Favorite Features

iDrive, Logic7 stereo system with Sirius, the TWIN turbos!

Suggested Improvements

Saab has done some really cool things with their "animated" cup holders - it's a small thing but they are unique. Could have more interior storage spaces.

Review

End of lease was nearing on my Audi A4 3.2 Quattro and I planning to purchase the car. Bored and nothing to do a couple weekends ago, I decided to stop by the closest BMW dealer to check out the 335i. After the test drive, I was instantly sold. Before I pulled the trigger, drove the G35 and the IS 350, but clearly the 335i was the Ultimate Driving Machine. Tons of power available at any speed. Handling is superb and the car is incredibly balanced. Can't say that about the A4. Fit and finish of the car is first rate. Interior is clean and laid out nicely. Great stereo. The sport seats keep you firmly in place. Awesome car to drive. Fast and fun!

Favorite Features

The engine is amazing... tons of power and torque. Transmission is flawless. Handling is excellent due to the perfect balance of the car. Love the styling. Stock rims are very cool.

Suggested Improvements

These would be "nice to haves" rather than improvements as the car straight off the lot is amazing. The tires are great, but BMW should offer Run Flats as an option. I would prefer Michelin Pilots and a can of fix a flat. Larger glove compartment would be nice.

Review

Had a 528i before, thought I would never drive a smaller car, but since the 328 is now bigger, its just perfect. Handles and hugs the road so well. Can't wait to try it in the snow, used to park the 528 when it snowed.

Favorite Features

Bluetooth, automatic wipers and headlights.

Suggested Improvements

More pickup, cannot see the radio when wearing sunglasses.

Review

Is there a word greater than great? That is the word I would use. The sound system is the best I have ever heard. The reviews where drivers say they look for excuses to drive this car are true. Believe it when you read it. I love the power, the sound, the illuminated outside lighting when you unlock the car at night. My last car was a Crossfire. I thought is was impressive until I drove this car. I have had it more than a month and know that all of my future cars will be BMW's. I have an automatic and added the sports package. If you are reading this and considering getting a 328i sedan... well... don't walk but run to the local dealership. You won't be sorry. It is worth every penny.

Favorite Features

The illuminated outside lighting at night looks awesome. The sound system is incredible. The power feels more generous than a crossfire. I also like the chilled drink area.

Suggested Improvements

Miles per gallon. So far I am getting 17.4 but it has only been one month and I rarely drive on freeways. I wish it had a standard garage door opener and the digital compass. I think they are both options but I wish they were standard. I am very happy with this car.

Review

With around 800 miles on my brand new 335i sedan, the fuel pump died. The symptoms were long crank times, power loss/hesitation and extreme vibration. It's been over 10 days and no word on a replacement. Stay away from this first year production if you can. From what I remember this car was fast, fun and super-agile when she was running.

Favorite Features

Suggested Improvements

Cup holders are weirdly placed. Brake dust on wheels is hard to clean off. Try a different pad maybe?

Review

I love my new 328i, BMW just keeps making cars that make me and many others so happy. No wonder editors of enthusiast magazines have to make public announcements explaining they are not on the Bavarian payroll (yes BMW advertises but so do the other manufacturers) when these cars keep winning head-to head comparisons with their competitors. My third 3 series and the most luxurious and comfortable yet, the car has grown with my own girth and obviously it’s not just me enjoying the extra space as I’m seeing more and more on the road. If you enjoy driving and you are looking for a smaller car that just makes you smile when you have to push it harder than normal this is the car for you.

Favorite Features

The new brakes are amazing, it’s disconcerting driving other cars now because the stopping power of the BMW is as good as it gets on a production car of this caliber. The new rear suspension also impresses me, it does not want to give up grip and people in the back seem more comfortable than before

Suggested Improvements

None that I can think of at the moment that I can't handle with certain aftermarket help.

Review

I drove a 2002 BMW 325i and it was a fun car to drive. Just bought the 328i with Premium and Sports PKG. This car is powerful and fun to drive. The car feels solid and the communication with the road is second to none. The engine power and overall excellent driving experience is what you would expect from a BMW. The brakes are solid and make you feel confident your care will stop on a dime. Transmission, engine and every other component work in precise unison. The car still gets a lot of stares when on the road. I'm always looking for any excuse to drive it! The car is pricey in comparison to some of the competition but worth the money.

Favorite Features

Powerful engine, looks, Xenon lights, side door illumination, smooth transmission and engine, beautiful comfortable leather seats, safety features.

Suggested Improvements

Better audio, for the money, this car should have a top of the line audio at no extra cost, run-flat tires can be noisy and I'm dreading having pay to replace them.

Review

This is my first BMW and wow, am I impressed. This car is flat out amazing. The best attributes are those characteristicts with the pure driving experience. If you love to drive, then you will love this car. The steering is amazingly precise, the brakes are strong yet smooth, the manual transmission is a joy to operate, the clutch is easy to use and then there's the engine. That twin turbo I-6 alone is reason enough to buy this car. To hear it rev is like pure automotive symphony. I love to rev this engine probably as much as the engine loves to rev. Cannot wait to hit the track one day. It also excels on the freeway - never got uncomfortable during an 11 hour trip. I love it!

Favorite Features

Engine, steering, brakes, 6sp MT. And of course that engine note. I spend half the time with the radio off just so I can listen to that engine. Also got to love that torque. With so much torque, you'd have no problem cruising in 6th gear probably as low as 40. Launching away from tolls is fun.

Suggested Improvements

This boils down to things that are nice to have done right, but when you get right down to it, who really cares? The glove box should be big enough to hold the manual (currently sits in the trunk) and the center console could hold more as well. Run flats not a problem at all in my opinion.
