Very nice features. Comfortable ride. Maybe a little too expensive at 54000 original purchase price.Jan 06, 2024

Super-nice car in a really attractive spec. With all of the features it does have, it does not have advanced safety tech like adaptive cruise control or lane centering. Since that is becoming so common to have that it would be unsettling for someone getting into such a capable car that does not have those features. Also, in typical BMW fashion it has a awesome motor but the brakes dont quite match the power.Oct 25, 2023
