2023 BMW 3 Series Price, Reviews, Pictures & More | Kelley Blue Book
I owned a mechanic shop for 6yrs (but worked on cars my entire life…and I’m 48yrs old). I’ve owned many cars/SUVs/motorcycles and a Jeep Wrangler (supercharged). This BMW is one of the funnest cars I’ve owned. I also have a 2015 Audi A6 (S Line) and this is right up there with it, as far as enjoyment goes. It’s very quiet, but needs a little more rumble.
The turbo whistles just perfectly thru the waste gate, as this thing grabs and goes! Two hands on the steering wheel, as it will pull you like a horse ready to go! The trunk is rather small (one large suitcase, an overhead-bin sized suitcase and a dufflebag would fit back there comfortably.) The fact that the radio controls are operate by waving your hands in front of it can be a pain if you’re a person that speaks with your hands. You’ll switch songs, turn the volume up or down, and do all kinds of things if your hands are over the center console area. I’m sure I could find a way to deactivate the hands-controls, but I’m just not that bothered…sometimes. LOL! When it’s a good song, it does make me go, “….maaaaan!”
But everywhere I go – even if it’s just parked – people stop and go, “…that’s a really nice car! WOW!”. It’s the Sunset Orange with the M package and factory BMW black wheels, so it’s really clean! The dark tint really makes the Sunset Orange pop. The double exhaust coming out of the back really gives it a sportscar appeal instead of a rental car look. I’ve seen some of the 3-series from the rear and they look like rental cars.
This one? They made sure to make the taillights, rear bumper accents, and exhaust pull that rental car feeling out of it and it really sits like a sportscar from behind. The interior glow lights are WOOOOOOOOO! Always makes people go, “….daaaang! They have LEDs in the doors and under the seats!” hahaha! I do have fun with this car, as you can probably tell by reading this.
I paid a good price for it, but hey, YOU CANT TAKE IT WITH YOU! Enoy it while you’re alive and leave it for your kids! They’ll appreciate you for leaving THIS vehicle behind! It’s definitely something worth holding onto for a few generations!
If I could get the M4 in the same color, I still wouldn’t sell the 330i. This is just something special.
