2001 BMW 3 Series Sedan 330xi AWD 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 5M)
Compromises with Few Compromises
 Purchased this car with 44k miles.  Has nearly every option available (sport pkg, xenon, winter, auto).  Little did I know how expensive the 50k mi checkup would be $1,400!  In addition, I had to replace all four wheels/tires with the horrible Wash, DC potholes.  Stuck with the OEM Contis -- mediocre but not too expensive.  So, I found the secret to keeping the tires/rims OK:  Inflate to 38psi.  That stopped the sidewall bubbles and I haven't had a rim problem since (except for my poor parking skills).  Since the $1,400 job (two years ago), no major issues.  Gas mileage isn't great (city+hwy ~21avg).  The best small car I will ever own! Love the AWD, handling, engine, power. A handsome car.
