328i BMW

2007 BMW 3 Series 328i 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 6M)

Review

Great vehicle. So much fun to drive! I recommend upgrading to the sport package for the larger wheel size. Makes a big difference in the handling and the looks. The run flat tires do start to make noise after a period of time though. They can be replaced if you complain about it before the car has reached 10,000 miles.

Favorite Features

Handling and braking performance. Also the rain sensor is nice. Oh and the door handles the illuminate at night when unlocking the doors.

Suggested Improvements

Getting rid of the run flat tires and using good Michelins.

2007 BMW 3 Series 335i 2dr Coupe (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6M)

Review

My second 3-series BMW after having the thrill of an '05 Viper (nothing compares to that beast). The 335 is a blast to drive and fun to show off. Why spend 20k extra for the new M3. Will do 0-60 is about 5 seconds with a great engine sound. Great interior quality.

Favorite Features

Instant power w/o any turbo lag.

Suggested Improvements

The stupid iDrive is hard to use. Zero trunk space for golf clubs. The Viper could hold a full bag w/o taking the driver out. The 335 will hold one bag if you remove the driver. The dash pop out cup holder is a joke. Run flat tire repair for one nail = 434.00. Can't repair a run flat.

Simply Amazing

Review

After I saw the show Motorweek that tested the BMW 335, and stated that it went to 0-60 in 5.4 seconds, I went straight to the dealership to trade in my 325xi. I got about every feature on it. I purchased one on the lot in Arctic Metallic with grey leather. It handles like an M3, it's styled as well as the Z8, it's as safe as a Volvo and it is as reliable as a Honda. This is my fourth BMW and definitely not my last!

Favorite Features

Everything, interior design, iDrive (after experimenting with it for 30 minutes, its the easiest thing to use), performance, BMW cachet, compliments I get, top shelf materials.

Review

this is my third BMW 3 series. I truly went with the slogan, "the ultimate driving machine", until now. My 328i is sluggish on pick up. Once going its jerking me into a whip lash. beleive me, this is no fun. maybe too much technology? Once going, its Ok.

Favorite Features

adjustable seats, bluetooth, leather, and remote gate opener.

Suggested Improvements

improve performance, cup holders in wrong place, turn signal need work, bring back spare tire and CD changer.

Review

After years of reading other people's reviews of their BMWs, I finally broke down and got a 335 sedan. I can honestly say, this is the best car I have ever driven. The acceleration is terrific, and the steering and braking are phenomenal. The interior is gorgeous, the Logic 7 system is great,and the gas mileage is pretty good for a car with this horsepower. Way to go, BMW!

Favorite Features

Acceleration in sport mode. It is like taking off in a plane!!

Suggested Improvements

None.

Review

This is my first BMW and I love it. Waited 10 years for it and it was worth it. Handling is great! Love the quite interior.

Favorite Features

Navigation, comfort, mileage. I am averaging 45+ mpg on the highway. Basic sound system is a blast.

Suggested Improvements

Bluetooth, auto dimming mirror and 18 inches wheels should be standard. City mileage could be better.

Review

Looked at the Acura TL, 07 Camry Sport, Avalon Limited, Jaguar, Volvo S80 and S60. No comparison when talking about cost of ownership and performance. I would opt for the sport package with the 17 inch wheels. I will use this car as a third car so I don't have to take my Yukon XL Denali on errands. --Mom of three.

Favorite Features

Performance, great handling, quiet ride, sporty appearance, iPod, bluetooth capability and it's fun to drive!

Suggested Improvements

Air is loud when on high. Other than that, love it!

Review

When I decided to buy a car I wanted something classy, fun to drive (important criteria), and for a lack of a better way to describe it, had a pedigree behind the performance. I looked at all the usuals in the luxury sport sedan class but the BMW 335i left the biggest grin on my face and in the end it was an easy decision for me. BMW. This car feels faster than the factory specs of 300hp/300ftlb and from some reviews, it apparently is. The surprising thing though so far is that this car is quite good on gas although it does require premium. So far city driving has yielded figures of 25-27 mpg. My last hwy trip was 40 mpg and this was with some spirited driving. Highly recommend!

Favorite Features

Styling! This thing looks sexy at any angle. Performance is unbelievable and gas mileage is impressive considering the engine. This is the first BMW 3-Series where I didn't feel cramped. It's quite roomy and the interior isn't ostentacious. It has a nice combination of simplicity and classiness.

Suggested Improvements

More selection on wheels would be nice. The standard rims are rather boring. Maybe do something better with the cup holders.

Review

Although the Saab and Audi are great cars too, the BMW is far better in terms of handling, acceleration, styling, and engine sound.

Favorite Features

It is quite quiet in the cabin; has lots of punch; terrific handling and good-sounding radio.The car performs flawlessly in every regard.

Suggested Improvements

Glove compartment large enough to hold the pouch the car manuals are in. Spare tire is always a good idea or at least include the tire/road hazard warranty if run-flats are provided.

Luxury car

Review

This car is great! I was considering the IS 250 and this car and finally chose this car because it is much more stable to drive at higher speeds. Overall, this is a great car and worth it for its price.

Favorite Features

Interior, Xenon headlights, memory garage key.

Suggested Improvements

GPS is not as good as others as you can't look up a place by typing its name, you need to have its full address. Fuel mileage. Driving this car can be quite costly as the fuel runs out faster than any other cars.
