10K Blissful Miles....Review!

-=Hot|Ice=- · 04-13-2009, 09:20 PM

I hit 10k miles today and I thought I would share a small review with everyone.

The Interior: The interior is still great! No creaks, no rattles, completely silent! The seats are comfy(non sport). People say the interior looks out dated, I disagree. I think it looks elegant and clean.

The Tech Features: I love all the tech stuff. From the adaptive bi-xenons, to the rain sensor, to the brakes drying the pads when it rains.

The Engine: 10k miles and still smooth as silk. It puts a smile on my face every time I get behind the wheel. I can't say other cars that I test drove before I got my car could do that like this car can right now. 1 year and 4 months and 10k miles later....It's still a joy to drive.

The Exterior: Looking good.

Someone's door hit my car and left a scratch but nothing some touch up paint can't fix. The car STILL looks sexy. It STILL attracts attention, and it STILL makes me smile every time I look at it.

The final verdict: I test drove many cars before I made my final choice. I test drove a G37,A5,C350,IS 350. None of them impressed me as much as this car has. It's still a joy to drive. Every time I get behind the wheel, it keeps bringing me back for more. The car makes me want to drive more and more and never stop. It brings a smile to my face each and every time I get behind the wheel. 2 more years left on my lease, and I don't doubt that the next 20k miles that I have with this car will be as blissful as the first 10k were. This is why people come back to BMW. Once you go BMW, there is honestly no turning back.

Thank You for reading!

"This is why people come back to BMW. Once you go BMW, there is honestly no turning back."

So true.....almost 20 K miles....zero problems except only needed to get my rear brakes changed under warranty.

Seriously! I'm trying to persuade my mother to trade in her Benz wagon for a BMW one.

Nice write up.

I've got 27k and love it except for the occassional rattle from the center console trim.

They are in the US. I think Canuck said BMW Canada does not cover brakes.

Yep if new car, pretty much all items except tires are covered, brakes- wipers- you name it. That's something you seriously should have known or been informed of by your sales guy???

thegeneral101 · 04-14-2009, 03:55 PM

brake are covered, just got my pads/rear rotors replaced at 20k

CyberGypsy · 04-14-2009, 04:03 PM

I have to say the interior does look VERY dated, I prefer a MB anytime, the need to do a complete facelift.

Craig@SupremePower · 04-14-2009, 04:37 PM

nice write up....

eaglesfan83 · 04-14-2009, 05:58 PM

Still loving mine as well although only at 1400 miles. My only gripe is the RFTs and the outdated guage layout. They still look good but could use a redesign at some point.

The opposite for me. I have never really like MB interiors. Isn't it great we have choices?!

TiAg335i · 04-14-2009, 06:39 PM

I hit 10K miles as well....

Everything but the wheels on this car is aging well. Brake dust seems to corrode the finish, and I do clean the wheels often.

Duhst · 04-14-2009, 06:44 PM
