2000 BMW 323i is the worst car on the market. Today is July 2008 and I got 67000 miles on my car. I have had many repairs done to it. I guess total is about $8000.00. climate control, power steering, transmission. Of course all this is out of warranty. within warranty was many, many window motor replacements and just added fluid to power steering, etc, etc. Tom Bush of Jacksonville, fl is the worst. I suggest going with the cheap cars and great quality of Toyota. I will never buy another european car or american car. European cars are more junk than american. You better be smart, bmw, volvo, etc will charge you out the yang yang to fix.

I have owned a 1995 BMW M3 since Dec 1994. I have 115,000 miles on it and it is a dream to drive. I have had this car to the driving schools in Heartland Park, Topeka, KS for aggressive driving 3 separate times....NO PROBLEMS! I still have the original brakes on this car (pads and rotors)! It is, literally, without flaw. I think the person who posted the bad post on the BMW is a jokester. I have had multiple Porsches, and British sports cars, plus a current 2003 Mustang SVT Cobra. None of them even comes close to the comfort, style, luxury and problem-free ownership of this BMW!
