2000 BMW 3 Series Sedan 328i 4dr Sedan
7 years and counting
 I purchased this car on the basis of promised road-handling and prior experience with an earlier BMW.  Some minor issues which should not have occurred (malfunctioning sun roof, malfunctioning ignition switch) have been the only problems.  The car handles delightfully, has a shorter turning radius than any four-door car I have encountered, looks good inside and out. This is not an economy car, and may be overrated by some enthusiasts, but it is still a safe and enjoyable means of transportation.  I could, and do, recommend it to any potential purchaser.
