I drive a 330xi BMW and it was the 3rd car I've had. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking into buying a sporty car. It's quick and handles nice. The car handles turns very well and didn't have many mechanical problems. Being all wheel drive it was able to handle all types of roads and varying weather conditions. It was able to handle snow and rain build up on the roads very well. Driving the car it's self was a breeze and the blind spot is very small. I felt very in control and safe while operating this vehicle. I'm not a huge racer myself but it's a very fun and fast car to drive and if the mood strikes you can quickly get up to fast speeds. I rarely had to send the car to the shop and averaged 23 mpg. When driving this type of car it's recommended to only have specialized dealerships do repairs which can up the total bill slightly.
