2003 BMW 325

Pros: Drives like no other car I've driven or been in. Handles superbly. Decent gas mileage.

Cons: None- I want it!

The Bottom Line: You don't get much better than a BMW. They sell themselves because of the way they handle and their dependability.

Review: I own a BMW 323is and love it. I would love even more a new car and one with 4 doors. The BMW 325i is what I am looking at and hopefully will buy as soon as I sell my current car. I am reviewing what ...

Pros: Affordable, BMW style and performance, options galore

Cons: A few minor complaints

The Bottom Line: A truly wonderful car with one big problem.

Review: I have owned a BMW 325 for the past six years and have come to love the model. The 325 is relatively affordable and sporty, yet practical when it comes to most purposes. However, after six years with mine I began to notice a few things happening that...

Pros: Broad, Capable power band, excellent handling, very refined, esepcially for 3 series

Cons: Must take a package (expensive), 3.0 is $$$ but worth it

The Bottom Line: A true driver's car - Despite additional cost, you get back alot more in engineering than in a Japanese model - the 330 is a winner!

Review: When BMW changed the 3 series coupe body style to this latest design, they really turned up the heat - the car was an instant winner, had gobs of style, an excellent suspension and just looked the part of a super star...However at that point, top notch...

Pros: Sports car-like handling, sports sedan-like performance. Superb ergonomics. And all that CARGO SPACE!

Cons: Very high MSRP -- buy pre-owned! Not as capacious as some may need/want.

The Bottom Line: A fantastic alternative to a minivan or, especially, an SUV. Just watch the price.

Review: Background My wife and I are expecting our first child in November (I am writing this in early November 2003), and we decided we needed a new vehicle. We owned two Acuras at the time: an old Integra hatchback and a '96 3.2TL sedan. The Integra ...

Pros: 325 XI gives you sporty feel, but has added all wheel drive stability

Cons: not as peppy as the 328i model

The Bottom Line: I wanted to get a car that while still sporty, was safe in bad weather as my wife and I plan a family. The BMW325xi fits the bill nicely.

Review: A few years ago, I leased a BMW 328i. I loved the car - here's the old review . It was the perfect size for me and my then girlfriend. Although the trunk was not huge, it was serviceable, and...

Pros: Style/Looks, Comfort, Conveniences, Handling, Warranty, Roadside Assistance

Cons: Unnecessary Car Phone Controls, Brake Dust

The Bottom Line: I would highly recommend the BMW 3-Series to anyone who loves a fun ride that is also comfortable and very stylish!

Review: Just a forewarning, this review is not going to be technical and talking about horsepower, torque and all of that. I am a female who loves nice cars, but I love them for their style and comfort, not necessarily what lies under the hood (with a few except ...

Pros: Everything! This car is fantastic!!! Handling is incredible, even w/o sport pkg.

Cons: Tilt steering could drop down further; No lumbar adjustment? Awkward stereo controls.

The Bottom Line: SPEND THE $$$. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!

Review: I have a 2003 325 convertible. It is an absolutely amazing vehicle. This car is a joy to "scoot" around town with, the handling is first-rate, and the ride is smooth--not at all harsh. You could cruise all day and be comfortable. The car is extremel ...

Pros: Overall Handling, Ride, Power Delivery, Fit & Finish, Safety

Cons: Price, Insurance, Value, Questionable Ergonomics

The Bottom Line: All cars in this class offer a lot, the real question is: What do you want? A sporting German sedan or value packed trouble-free Japanese model?

Review: Appearance:
To say the least the styling of the three series didn't exactly blow me away. However, I was rather pleased that BMW avoided the trendy styling that other manufactures have resorted to. While not a showstopper, the three series has...

Pros: Performance. Styling. Ergonomics.

Cons: Lack of storage space. Weak sound system.

The Bottom Line: I shopped them all, and it always came back to the BMW. It cost more, but it is worth it.

Review: BMW touts itself as the ultimate driving machine, and I won't argue. Four years ago I bypassed a 3 in lieu of a Japanese car and regretted it almost immediately. This time, I made the right move. It is worth the money.

First off, unless you...

Pros: handsome, grippy, lux interior, superb top, valet cachet, great resale

Cons: horrible blind spots, mildly annoying climate control, so-so stereo (H/K)

The Bottom Line: It's a great car. I can buy it at lease end and sell it for a $5k profit. And the damned thing just makes me look hot!

Review: I leased a 2003 325iC (convertible) at the end of March '03, just moments before they shut the flow of '03s and started shipping '04s. I did this because the '04 will have more stylized (and uglier) sport wheels and scalloped headlight surrounds that my...
