This is my fourth 3-series...I've had two E46 sedans, an E92 coupe, and now the F30, and my opinion is it's the best one of all of them. All of my 3's have have been "sport" models and this one is "M-Sport" - I like it even better than my 2003 330i ZHP and my Dinan S3 E92. I plan to keep this one for several years, barring any troubles, which I'm not expecting.

2013 F30 335i MSport, xDrive.
Had a horrible last couple of months working out the Limp-Mode issues. BMW/Dealership put it right! Now in a brand new Car, exact same spec with an additional 2K in Options. Love this car. Im a MT/Coupe guy by nature. Previous car was a G37s Coupe MT. I drove the e9x coupe and the F30 back to back and I put my money down on a AT 4 Door. I never thought that would be possible in my world, but that is how much I loved the F30. I smile every time I get behind the wheel. My wife jokes that I am cheating on her with a car........I tell her "Don't be dis-respectful, her name is Emmy!"

OMG, I'd be SO fucking pissed. What a dumb bitch. In the end did the cops get it right? The scares the shit out of me, thinking someone could hit you, be delusional enough to claim you hit them, and get the cops to believe them, at which point you are fucked.

Hello,

I still love my car!

My new F-30 M-sport with 900 miles on it has been in the shop for 2 weeks now. It was pulling a little to the right at high speeds. Despite the fact that it’s been in the shop almost as long as I’ve owned it, I still love it. I think my Dallas area BMW dealer is incompetent, but…. I still love the car. Considering how sophisticated cars have become, I guess I can’t expect absolute 100% perfection from such a marvel of engineering. If I were paying for high cost repairs I might have a different attitude.

What a disappoinment. The steering, brakes, suspension are awful. AWFUL.
The Sport Model is definitely softened up vs E90, but I still enjoy the car. But this base model without the chassis improvements is a Camary( not even a sport Camary) with BMW on the hood. The 3 series lost its way. Hopefully BMW can find its way with the new 1 or 2 series, or I'll be switching brands in the future.
Yep! The 328i no line is heartless, it suck big time,

Hi my name is James, I started my addiction over 20 years ago. I don't own my F30 yet, (eta delivery Wk36). I drove a 328xi Touring, about 4 weeks ago and loved nearly every aspect of it, thought the steering was a bit light outside of Sport mode, great interior and the brakes we unbelievably good, as was the performance from that 4 pot, though I thought the noise could ber improved. Cannot wait to see what's different in the 2014 models, and never before have I wanted the month of July to go by so quickly.

I don't think I have seem more than a couple of posts about people being un-happy. There are always things you like/dis-like about every car. Where are all these posts you are refering to?

The point of this thread is I'm surprised at the amount of dissatisfied owners there are out there, I know the f30 has its foibles as all cars do but I love my car and I'm proud to be able to own such a nice car, in fact I didn't even test drive the car when I bought it! Are you happy with yours???

We love our EBII 335i xDrive, light years ahead of our old E90 328xi. I can honestly say it is the best all around car we have ever owned. You can't beat performance, tech and efficiency all wrapped into one!

First post here. I can say I am very happy with my F30 6 months/8000 miles in to it. Even with the soft xDrive suspension. I've had other cars do some things better, but the F30 is the best overall car I've ever owned.

I often open up the garage door to look at 'er before going to bed...

She's a stunning, beautiful peace of machinery to look at and to own. Worth every penny if not more.

yes 100%.

Comfort is great, automatic transmission is lovely (coming from multiple years in WRX and STIs), and the M-Package look w/ blue estoril look is perfect for me.

Let's be objective though, lacks power and sound, trunk is small also

Haha I've done the same.

Love my 335i XDrive M Sport (MPPK) after almost 2 mon & 4800 kms. It is a fun car to drive. I also agree it is stunning and worth what was paid. I thank my wife everyday for insisting that I buy it!

I've just made the move to f30 from an e90. To be honest I don't think they are that different. I know a lot of people hate the steering but I don't notice it that much. Other than that f30 gets a big win on interior as it should being newer and all
