I bought my M3 from a neighbor because i needed a new car and he was selling it for cheap. I've always wanted a BMW because of their style and performance.
I really like the overall shape and interior of BMWs. Its interior and the ride is very comfortable. It has plenty of room for my needs as a student and part-time worker. There is plenty of room for passengers and small bags. The trunk is kind of small, and i have to put hockey sticks and other oversized things in the cabin between the seats.
Being an older car, it is not 100% and will need a few repairs and replacement parts in the near future. being a BMW, the repairs i have done so far have cost a bit more than other older cars.
Breaking, handling, etc are great, at least in comparison to similarly priced and aged cars.
Overall would probably recommend to other people if they can find one for cheap.

Love this fast, gorgeous car
This is a beautiful car. The fit and finish is great. I had one years back ( a 1998) and always wanted another. It's fast. Almost too fast at times as if you hit the gas too quick you will slam yourself into the seat or if you do it taking a turn you will hit the window. Mine has the competition package which makes it even more sporty. If I could do it over I would have bought the premium package as it is much more comfortable to drive. The sports competition package is pretty much overkill. I have the basic sound system and it's great. The major con is the gas mileage. Not great for a car that size but because the engine is so powerful I am sure there isn't much to do about it. I added the carbon leather interior and it's a nice touch.

Quick, sleek, smooth.
My vehicle is a luxurious car, fit with a ton of extra amenities that make my riding experience top notch. Parking is even made easier because of my sharp rearview camera and markers that help me know if I'm going to hit someone or something. I don't care for the steering, I have extreme anxiety and not being able to feel the steering is a drawback for me. The smooth ride and user-friendly set up makes it all worth while.
