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???
yes we just all join up here to bitch about stuff....
I do love my 335i for:
1. The amazing tech.
2. The amazing handling.
3. The amazing balance between luxury and performance.
5. The N55.
6. It's looks.

Otherwise, great car.

Other than a few little issues I'm absolutely in love with the car. Every time I look at it I can't wait to drive it.

This car is great and can't imagine driving something else. I think the 335i M Sport is one of the best looking cars ever produced.

The tech is great, a combo of speed if you need it, great gas mileage if you need it, handles great & EB2 is a unique head turner not that I'm into that. Haven't seen anything else I'd rather drive as a daily in the same price range.

Totally happy with this car.

I really like my car a lot. Over the years I have owned many BMW's and I think the F30 is the most complete package to date.

Now that I no longer have rusty seat frames, I am very pleased with my f30. Best car I have owned year to date.

Bang on 4 weeks with my car today, no rusty seats, no wind noise issues, no steering vibration, false dash warnings, or any of the other seemingly unsolvable problems plaguing this forum. Worst I got is that stupid driver's side headrest that won't go all the way down.

Gotta say, love the car. Does feel softer than the old E90 when really pushing it in the corners, but as a daily driver a much better overall car.

You can get the headrest all the way down with some fiddling.

I like my F30335i but I it doesn't have the thrill factor that my E90 had. This car is a bit expensive and I may go with. Mini Clubman JCW next. However I may keep the F30 and do a Dinan tune when my lease is up.

Leaves my old '96 Camry in the dust (no surprise). Performance is great. Mildly disappointed not to have the cool high beams shown in youtube videos that split around the oncoming traffic, and computer has a long learning curve and takes too many button pushes, and where's the iphone 5 cradle, but that's picayune.

Once I got the badges off the back and weird safety decals off the visor, looks great too.

The only only disparaging comment my mother-in-law could think of is "What did it cost?"

I really hated my F30 335i lemon, more than lots of issues, that's why I traded it in...

And with my current(10th) BMW I'm as happy as a child with his X mas presents. Never been happier with a car(including E46 an E90 M3)than with the one I have right now. Sorry.

Cheers
Robin

pretty content with this car. came from an acura so it's a big upgrade.
rattle in my steering wheel and wind noise bugs me a little but not too much.
Always eager to jump in my car and start driving. I guess having mods and having a manual makes a big difference too.

I agree. But if nobody is pissed, how is anything going to get better?

Post back after your next wash. I'll be on pins and needles waiting.

Glad you love it. The F30 is a nice car. Its different from the E90 in many ways. Some ways great, some...I'm still analyzing. Overall a very mice machine indeed.

Competition. Audi, MB, BMW, Infiniti and Lexus can all make stellar compact sport sedans. At the end of the day a driver is [typically] forced to choose one.

I personally love my car to be honest. The only thing is I wish I had gotten xdrive and Msport package. But both of those options were not available here in Canada at the time.

I previously owned an e90 and loved the way that car handled and hugged the road. When I first got my f30 sprtline, I was a bit disappointed with the way the car handled. But now, I actually enjoy the handling more than the e90.

All in all, this is a car forum. People will complain and complain about problems or issues they have. It's not a Toyota, these things run nearly 55k~ after some options, fees n taxes here in Canada..
