hey guys.
Im looking at a used 2013 bmw 328i or 320i. is buying a used one with less than 40k miles good or bad? any other suggestions for a luxury car? price range would be max 25k
i am upgrading from my chevy impala which has 220k miles on it.
bmw haters and bmw lovers welcome.
I would say there should be minimal problems with it until it reaches about 5 or 6 years old. The previous owner/dealership should have taken care of any early problems that had developed.
I would look into a CPO though.
Alternatives are lexus is250/350, cadillac ats/cts, and the infinitis/acura (not sure what model numbers they use now)
The lexus would be more reliable, the cadillac drives better, and idk shit about infinitis

I would highly recommend dialing it back a few years to the E90 for muh driver feel; the F30 is a bloated, sloppy mess. If you just want luxury then look more towards a Lexus

Oh also get a post-facelift model if E90, they're a lot more reliable.

Get a used IS350. It's quicker than the 328i, more comfy, and more reliable. I'd argue that a second-gen IS350 handles better than a 2013 328i too.

Yes it's a good daily with a touch of sportiness but nothing special.
True BMWs start from 6 cylinders

slightly less expensive than Mercedes, more expensive than Audi - yeah bmws are quite luxurious. Have you ever been in a 7 series?
my friend has had a used new-gen 328xi for the past 4 months and I've heard no complaints.
I have a x1 with the same engine @20k miles now and it's given me no trouble. But I bought it new not used.

Most base level bimmers are pretty shit. I'd get an older CPO of a higher trim level, see if you can get a 335i E90
Like this, if you don't mind looking like a black person:

I would avoid the lower trims, OP. Generally you buy a BMW for its sportiness, and you pay a premium to do so, so why pay all that money for a 4 cyl? the 320 is a badgewhore special
>>15447951
You've been in one right? Because you can't possibly have been in something like a cadillac or chrysler 300, and thought that it was somehow more luxurious.
