2009 BMW 3 Series
Trim: 328i Executive Package with Nav
by

BMW stereotypes not as bad as feared with this one
2009 model purchased CPO from a BMW dealer in 2011 with 31000km. Review written in 2017 at 150000km.
I was nervous about the luxury German reliability stories…Thankfully my experience is only partly true. Purchased the extended RFT warranty and had to use it with a defective tire within the first 20000km.
The RWD experience is as fun as advertised. The 230hp is modest compared to many modern sport compacts and sedans out there but the refinement, transmission and power delivery are among the best in the industry – Same can be said for cabin comfort and refinement. No issues from 2 adults in the rear seat for space. Trunk also generous for the vehicle class. Winter driving not the best, but manageable – I will avoid RWD until I start shopping for a car exclusively for fun. Interior is “Spartan”, but functional. BMW iDrive (in this 2009 model) was overall well executed. Exterior design still quite sharp after 8 years IMO.
Dealer warranty wasn’t always the most pleasant – You will likely be nickled and dimed and denied full repair at first assessment. But if you have tact, you can get them to fully honor the written agreement. Wear and tear maintenance is pricey and required more frequently than mainstream brands, but I think the trade-off is worth it. The biggest blemish on this experience was an alternator that required replacement at 70000km. It required 3 dealer trips and some pushback, but I got it covered under warranty (was told that it would have been an $1800 fix). Also, both tail lamps required replacement inside of 100000km ($350 each), some intermittent single stereo speaker cutout noted around 90000km, non-functioning AC at 140000km (low cost band aid fix).
Bottom line: High price, high expectations, and after 6 years and 120000km of ownership, I am very satisfied with the experience.

Wow fast and good on fuel!
These cars are super quick and when model can easily keep up to $100000 sport cars. I would only buy the xdrive. The rear wheel drive is a little too torquey in winter driving. Good on fuel when driven lightly.

Smooth as Silk
I have enjoyed the smoothest and most comfortable ride so far. Never had a maintenance issue. Just basic maintenance like oil change and you are good to go. The on board computer prompts you for tire pressures, fluid changes and safety related info. I never had to remember or check when was something due on this car. I am changing it with another BMW.

This baby has been very very good to me!
7 years ago I took possession of my first BMW (a 335i xDrive), after having driven an Acura MDX for 6+ years prior to the BMW and a Dodge Grand Caravan for 10+ years prior to the Acura MDX and Toyota Supra prior to that!
So it was time for me to get back into a sports car (sedan) that still had enough room for a family of four but allowed me to let the horses running wild when I drove it alone!
Other than a few minor issues this car has been an absolute delight to own and more importantly to drive!
The dual turbo six cylinder 300 horsepower hugs the road exceptionally well and the Sport steering is extremely responsive yet very firm, as one would expect.
It was armed with all the bells & whistles available back in 2009, although not up to par in comparison to 2016 standards.

Would buy another in a second!
Excellent vehicle for toting kids/dogs. Superbly reliable. With top rated winter tires, can get through deep snow with Xdrive. Heated seats and steering keep you toasty. NAV, Bluetooth, everything you need. BMW cup holders aren't super well placed but minor issue. Super handling and BMW breaking can't be beaten.

Would buy another in a second!
Excellent car for the city or highway. Great pick up and reasonable city fuel performance. AWD means you feel very comfortable regardless of conditions, even though the car is smallish. Add top rated winter tires and this vehicle can make it though just about anything. I have never gotten stuck even though our street is the last to be plower in the city! Lots of room for groceries, kids and dogs.

No better for the price
There is no car on the road drives like a BMW 335ix for the money. The BMW 335ix is a sporting car that looks great and can be driven every day all year round. Whether you want a car that is quick off the line or provides the security to pass when you are doing 100 kph already the 335ix is a dream to drive.

A Great Driving Experience
Great handling & a smooth ride makes it feel like you are driving a brand new car off the lot, Rain sensing vipers is the greatest invention ever and the bright head lights make it an ideal night time driving vehicle.Dual climate control takes the hassle out of others complaining about too hot or too cold and fold up cup holders in the back makes long trips very comfortable. with all the comforts you would expect in a luxury vehicle and the reliability of German engineering makes this car an ideal long term investment and a joy to own.

Dream Car
It took me some time to find a car with everything I wanted. It took me about 6 months looking at almost every brand of car. After countless test drives and research I found this beauty. I am sad to see it go but because I am moving to the UK I must sell it. I will buy this same car in the UK.
The ride is smooth and it handles like a dream. I can not put into words how well this car performs. You must test drive one. BMW in my opinion is one of the best built vehicles on the road and this 335D is a beast. After driving this car I would never choose anything else.
