Positive Review

"Nearly as good as my 2009 335i"

Much improved since last gen car. Even though a 4 cyl., it sounds good in sport mode, handles very well, and is quite fun to drive. When you want to relax, use eco pro and just relax. Very quiet inside.

Critical Review

"Car was hauled off to the shop after 145 miles"

Had my brand spanking new M340i delivered to my door. After two meager trips to Costco, I received a brake failure notice and had to have the car towed to the dealer for warranty repairs. TWO WEEKS later the car is returned with ZERO offers from BMW for down time compensation. All this time I received notifications from BMW on how to set up the account online to make my first car payment! Although the dealership was apologetic, BMW simply did not care.

Perfect first car

I put my son in this and what a perfect selection. It’s scores top margins for safety. Has a great style and you can dial the sport mode down to eco. Needless to say the handling and responsiveness is all bmw. Not sure if you can get them without options but ours came with a mid level package that makes driving a joy. This model has a ton of AM options, but make sure you don’t mod the engine as it voids the warranty

LOL BMW Offered more than I paid

Don’t contact me again, you are full of it. But thanks for nothing. This was an exercise in futility. Have no one contact me.

Great car
Pros

Fast, agile, responsive

Cons

Premium fuel, not great for long trips

This car is the most fun vehicle I’ve ever owned. It isn’t terrible from a fuel economy standpoint, averaging around 25 mpg with fairly aggressive driving.
