Seriously impressive car, especially for an entry level trim. What are your thoughts on the refreshed 3 series? Find me on my social media outlets! Facebook: / 258462276769 Instagram: @rcg_gt Snapchat: @reid_graham05
Just bought mine 2 weeks ago as a gently used. and LOVE it! No buyer's remorse here. My only issue has been the rear view mirror auto-dimming. No shut-off so i had to put some tape over the sensors. Too dark.
I'm glad he made this video in Texas. I live in Houston and driving to Dallas is crazy with pot holes and some good straight away roads. I'm considering trying BMW
@@tonyto2009 I actually have to retract from my comment 😄 in just a year I had to replace the steering rack, head gaskets and some other piece I don't remember now, thermostat, radiator and front break disks 🤦🏻♂️ this cars are utter pieces of shit, thank God I got rid of it and now I have a Toyota Tacoma, a real reliable beast!
Don’t you agree the dashboard looks dated though? It’s been several years since anything changed, I bet if you sat blindfolded in a car and took off the cover, you would not be able to tell what year car you are in :-)
Everything is kinda outdated but Mazda’s... but it isn’t too bad, the shiny part is the wheel, cheapest ever feel on a steering wheel, it’s that cheap plastic like 90s feel... yuk
Shuhrat Popal this is not your average bmw it’s made for the everyday driver you’ll have very little to 0 issues assuming you don’t over use the sport mode
Nice review, maybe slow the walk around down a bit? Kind of made my head spin. Agree with you on the E90s, even with sport pack. Hopefully they get the steering feel back to E46 level on the next gen. If you have a chance to check out a new A4, think you'll like that a bit better.
I definitely will slow that down next time. I didn't realize how fast I was going until I started editing. I agree about steering feel.. it could use more of that. Hopefully I can drive the new B9 and see what I think!
The newer BMWs are great cars but are a little over priced for what you get. Halogen headlights, no heated seats, etc on a 30k+ car? We've got a 2014 BMW 328d that has quite a few more options than that particular car. Once you get more options its starts to become a much better car, but you'll end up with a price close to 50k. I'll also have to disagree on the air-conditioning. The air conditioning does not cool near as well, or as quickly, as our 2015 Lincoln Mkc and 2016 Mustang.
I agree, the base model probably isn't the best bang for the buck. It definitely needs some options on it to feel worth the sticker price. Interesting that the AC on y'all's car doesn't seem to be up to par...wonder why that is.
Carlos Deck just went from a e90 6spd to the f30 8spd auto. completely different machine. e90 felt more agile and more of a driver's car but the power torque and refinement of the f30 I'll take any day over the old. oh and I just ran a 13.6 1/4 mile stock lol
I may have to disagree with you a little bit there... To me, it felt like they lost their focus on the "Ultimate Driving Machine" for several years, but I'm thinking it's coming back!

Yeah, I used to be a BMW fan, but their products have been really disappointing lately. Their cars have gone soft in handling and that interior does not belong in a almost 50k plus car.
