2011 BMW 3 Series Reviews, Pricing & Specs

I have owned four BMW’s over the years, and this is the absolute best example of the brand. This car is a gas to drive: perfectly behaved, and really fun, all at the same time. It is very reliable, and it demonstrates a balance not found in many 4 door sedans. Powerful and fun when you want it, buttoned up and well-behaved when you need it. Stereo is great - no need to spring for the Logic 7. Great long-distance cruiser- really the ultimate driving machine.

I love everything about my car. It's got all the right bells and whistles and it drives perfect. I test drove a lot of cars and nothing performed like the 3 series. The car isn't cheap, but you get what you pay for. Anyone who says they rather have something else is only saying that based on PRICE. The cheapest product isn't always the best. Hence why BMW and Apple do so well.

Great car. Only thing missing is back up camera.

Best Car I’ve ever owned. It’s a Bimmer, but so far has been reliable as a Corolla.

It is the type of car that cannot be described with words, but must be driven—with vigor—to be understood.

Really fast 335i. Handles great, looks great, runs great, puts a smile on your face when you touch the pedal!

Great car. It needed some minor repairs, but drove very well.

It has unbelievable pick up, handling and braking. Drives like a sports car but has the comfort and options of a luxury car (Bluetooth, Navigation, Sirius Radio, Heated Seats) Amazing/unique looking color combination-Dark Red Exterior with Black/Saddle Interior

I've owned a few 3-series BMW's. This is the 3rd. My favorite was an E36 1999 325is. It was a manual transmission and was a blast to drive. I then had the E46, a 2001 325i coupe. It was also a great car, an automatic and not nearly as fun as the e36. My 2011, is a sedan. it is a 2011 328i (E90). While it is a great car, it doesn't feel as "connected" as my other two did. I've had great ownership experiance with BMW and will probably upgrade to the new F30 in the near future.

The car drives great. Feels like it should be on a track with lots of curves. The M package on it gives it a lot of attention. The only con for the car is the back seat is small if you put the front seats all the way back. It is still a luxury sports car that can haul children in the back perfectly. Great car.

I personally love bmw's and love them as a daily driver over mercedes and lexus! The handling is amazing and the drive quality is great. I really enjoy the simple yet complex design of the vehicle. Its a great family car also!

Great fun to drive. A little short on space in the rear seat compared to the comparable Audis and the suspension is a little too hard for the very rough Indian roads (combined low profile runflats). But still brings a smile to your face everytime you push it hard.

Awesome car, really solid and good driving. A good year in the lineup.

The perfect balance between a sports car and a family sedan. I love the handling and the throttle response when you need it. Provides my daily dose of adrenaline in my morning commute. Who needs coffee when you have this?

Appearance: Loved the look of the face lifted E90. It was very comfortable. Build quality: No noises or blind spots. Only scheduled maintenance at no cost. Milage acceptable for everyday driving. Performance: Perfect brakes and perfect handling. Acceleration acceptable. 200hp with 200torques is on the low side for a car this size/weight, but overall a huge difference to my 2005 Toyota Echo. Always felt extremely safe and in complete control driving it. This car was a lot of fun to drive.

Very pleased with the car! The car is in outstanding condition and well maintained, Very good value to comparable cars we looked at and drove.

The vehicle is loaded with every available option for the year and model other than navigation. The 2011 BMW e90 is the last of the old school BMWs. The steering offers precise and heavy, driver to road feedback which the newer F80 models are sorely lacking.

Very sporty and dependable car. Just expensive to repair when something breaks. But, breakdowns normally happen if scheduled maintenance is not performed.

Its a very well built car and fun to drive

Power and handling are exceptional. In addition, I am very happy with the X drive. Last winter, the car had absolutely no problems in the snow. Even maneuvered well over the ice. The vehicle is in excellent condition with newer run flat tires all around.

I love this car it is very fast, with excellent handling ability. For a diesel it is very quiet. It has a stealth like appearance. On top of all that it gets incredibly good gas mileage! It has been a very fun car to own.

The car is very fun to drive (especially cornering)- wish they offered a turbo version Solid build quality, nothing about the car that feels shaky or poorly built. The aesthetic design of the vehicle is quite appealing for a wagon. Great for 2 adults, 2 kids and a ton of stuff stored in the boot.

Awesome car, I would recommend it to anyone who wants a vehicle with performance, comfort and handling as well as looks. I have never driven a car this fun to drive. If you're going to drive it in the winter check for paint chips as the paint is soft. For that price, I love it.

The 6 cylinder 3 series is a fantastic reliable car and despite people uninformed thinking they are expensive to maintain, aside from gas, oil , and tires as needed. They are solid , reliable and a blast to drive

Great car, does just about everything you ask from it, however be ready to invest on an auto scanner to deal with the electronics due to the intelligent battery system, overall very agile and nimble.

Great car. Nice tight ride. I love the performance. The car is missing AV jacks

Great power, great performance, great handling (hydraulic steering), very good gas mileage given the engine, extraordinarily comfortable, lots of useful bells and whistles and absolutely gorgeous to look at, like a motorized top model. This is one of the best 3-Series vehicles every built by BMW!

This is a great little car, sporty and quick.. fun to drive. The only bad thing is you get funny looks as a dude driving, so mainly the woman drives it. The 2 door version is what we have, so it sometimes gets a look as if it was an M series.

The 09-11 335d with M57 engine is an absolute rocket ship, acceleration is like being fired out of a cannon. Paired with the sport package it becomes a jet fighter, superb handling. This car was in superb shape, low miles, always owned in the Southwest (no salt), and every option available except maybe the rear sun shades, which are rare. My 440 mile trip home at 75-80 with A/C took 12.2 gal and resulted in 35.7mpg, its currently getting ~24 on my city commute.

Everything is as advertized in and around the car. Amazing ride, quiet, comfortable, only 2 features i didnt have that i wanted. Those were the auto start and comfort access. Cars perfect

I have a white on tan 2011 bmw 328i sedan, decent power but not in automatic. The sequential mode is so fun. Great for a first car but an SUV’s trunk space is so nice to have. Decent reliability so far.

I love this car. It's been fun and reliable. The BMW maintenance has kept the car in great shape and running smoothly. The only down side is that it's not a kid-friendly car. One booster in the back seat is OK, but if you have 2+ kids that need to be in the car, a 2-door Coupe isn't the way to go.

This car handles great. My last care was an Acura TL and it was a great car, but the BMW performs like nothing else I have ever driven. It has 40 less HP than my Acura, but accelerates just as fast. Driving it in sports mode is an incredible experience. I didn't by my first automatic tranmission care until I was 35 so I know what a manual transmission feels like. In sports mode this care emulates a manual transmission well enough to fool some people.

For the young and the young at heart! Smart styling, decent get up and go. Plus a very dependable motor and drive train.

It offered more features than I imagined. I would compare it to Audi and a good value.

Solid performance, strong engine, smooth ride, great car over all

Nice driving. Very expensive ($1600) when time for brakes/pads, sine they require new rotors

The BMW Wagon is all wheel drive and it drives like a sports car but has the features of a BMW and it is solid. It is quick and handles great. We can fit groceries in easily and it looks great too. It's a nice versatile car that we can drive out to dinner or out in the country.

i like the sporty of this car, and luxury its two in one,, its little small than other coupes but its convertible this is the best thing about this beautiful car,,, best handling , great on gas, ran flat tires, hd head lights, navigation, bluetooth and shift paddle..

awesome all rolund vehicle. Alot of power can be released with a simple turbo tuner. Handling is awesome and holds around corners. As for performance the N54 motor is one of the best motor BMW has produced to date. The new M3 will be sporting this twin turbo motor from 2012 onwards
