This car is fantastic. It is very practical. It has held up very well for me over the time that I have owned it, and it is a sporty fun little sedan. The quality of everything about the vehicle is top notch. The car is well put together, and it has great leather and metal trim around the dash. I'm extremely happy with the purchase of this vehicle. It also runs very well in my opinion. It's very reliable, and I have never had it break down or cause me any problems over the time that I have owned it. The engine and the transmission is very strong in it.

BMW withstood the hype and seeming over exaggeration of the 90's as the ultimate driving machine, but in my opinion it is, and here's why. Put superficial reasoning aside, and two things really stand out with this vehicle-- High Quality and Safety. The well crafted engineering of this vehicle speaks for itself. Most high tech features which would be upgrades in other cars are standard with the BMW. This car has outperformed all of my other vehicles hands down. In terms of maintenance, handling the road, features, and over all style, it leads the pack. Technical repairs are expensive but if the car is maintained, over the long haul, I believe it fairs cheaper than most. It has serious horsepower, but its well built exterior and weightiness which hugs the road engenders safety for its passengers. As with anything there is a flip side to the coin. A few of the cons are low to moderate gas mileage. It's not really a gas saver, and long trips can be costly. I have had some condensation issues when using the AC. Again repairs can get expensive, and it's best to take it to the dealer which can be even more expensive. It maintains its value which is excellent, but for this reason the ad valorem taxes hardly ever change from year to year. Insuring this care is also relatively expensive. Net , this is a responsible and quality vehicle that is worth every penny. And one other pro- it's fun to drive.
