I own several BMW's of various makes and models, and the older ones still hold up. This car is fast, comfortable and has been very kind to me overall in terms of maintenance. It is a BMW so it can have its problems, but they are minimal and well worth it.

For my current vehicle I chose a used 2006 BMW 530i. This is my fourth BMW and by far the best one I have had so far! I would absolutely recommend BMW to anyone looking for a reasonably priced high quality vehicle. I get around 23 mpg in my BMW which is an upgrade from 12mpg in my previous car. The engines are build to last 300,000 and can easily go above and beyond that with routine maintenance and care. Some nice features I have are heated leather seats, heated steering wheel, Bluetooth phone connectivity, and rear wheel drive. I have a 2 year old daughter and a dog that are constantly in my car and the seats still look almost new. Excellent quality, build to last car. I often go fishing a lot, and the middle back seat folds down with a compartment that opens to be able to store long fishing polls and equipment. Surprisingly, this vehicle has A LOT of trunk space, it is a very deep trunk with a plastic waterproof lining so if your cooler leaks its no big deal. This is great for me since I am always outdoors being active and getting dirty. The only thing I have to complain about with this car is the cost of maintenance and parts, although they are built to last forever, you really do pay a pretty penny to keep them in tip top shape.
