The BMW 328i is a very well-rounded vehicle. It is luxurious but accessible to young professionals who are still saving and earning their way in the job market. It has excellent performance, great features and is very easy on the eyes. The new car's electrically assisted power steering is quite good (and, thanks to software updates, is supposed to get better over time). It is also very good value, when comparing it to other luxury models. A few negatives include gas mileage and cost of ownership. Gas mileage is not the best - although they advertise an estimated 32 MPG city, the car actually gets closer to 20. Another negative is the cost of repair. If you choose to own this vehicle long-term, you can expect to pay significantly for major repairs. Another slightly less important negative is that in order to cut costs, the company seems to cut a few corners. For example, LED lights are not standard (is becoming the norm even in economy brands nowadays), neither is GPS/navigation. Adding these features from the manufacturer costs significantly (at least 5,000 more for LED lights and $2,000 for the GPS/navigation system). Overall, though it is an excellent choice.

I own a 2001 BMW 325i. I love this vehicle. Yes, it's older, but it still looks very modern. The body design is still beautiful and people can appreciate that. It is very well made, easy to work on for at-home mechanics and the ride is smooth.

The speed of the car is awesome. It is the best car that you could ever get.
