Trim: 325XI
by IGOTTHEKEYS on 10-19-2017
Very fun ride
I"m one of those people, the type that's incredibly picky about their cars and finds a few things that could be done better in every car she owned.
I've had a lot of great cars over the years but this is the BEST.
I really can't think of anything I would change.
It drives great, is incredibly comfortable, looks amazing, has great options and features, plenty of power, incredible handling and it's just flat out FUN. The AWD is just AMAZING it has never failed me!

Love it, hugs the road, top quality
I purchased my car used and I've owned it over four years.
Always wanted a BMW and couldn't afford a new one, so I bought used.

Fabulous car
A comfortable daily urban commute car owned since new. Dealer service experiences have always been exceptional. Few unplanned service visits and maintenance costs have been extremely low for a 12.5 year old car approaching 200K kms driven in salty Toronto winters. Good not great HP, but still a joy to drive with a 5 speed manual, and willing engine that begs to be revved. Can't say enough good things about this car. Was worth every penny.

A true driving machine
This is not for you if you want a reliable economical car.

All in the car is driving oriented, if you are a fan of street driving without overspending, this is for you, you can feel good driving without the need to be over the speed limit.

This can be good track car from time to time if you are the kind of guy.

You should prepare yourself to spend on maintenance, this is a performance car, so you need some knowledge to DIY, or big pocket to live with this car.

If you want an M3 and you cannot afford it, than this might be just the right one for you ;)

Fun car to drive.......AWD is awsome to have here for our wimters.....
I love the power this car has. The AWD feature has made me never want to have a car without. Feels very safe for highway driving and winter conditions.This is important to me as i do a lot of out of town trips. Passing power is great, and in the winters there is no rutted back alley you will get stuck in. Only problems i encountered with this car was during the -40 months of last winter.....but once i had a block heater put in there were no issues. Love this car but 10 years is my max.

Performance in a small package
This BMW impressed me compared to my old 5 series. I really enjoyed the all wheel drive system especially when it is split 62% in the rear and 38% in the front.

I have taken this car every where up the mountains, down valley roads and up alberta oil patch access roads in the winter and the car never did disappoint.

The power of the inline 6 cyclinder really shows in second gear and the 6 speed ratio is well balanced. 3rd gear is good up to 110 km/h I think. You'll have no issues driving this beast.

Awesome Car
According to BMW, "the whole is more than the sum of its parts, provided the parts are perfect." This is the credo the German auto
I wouldn't go so far as to say that all the parts of the 330Ci are perfect, but I would agree that their whole is far greater than their sum. manufacturer applies to every vehicle rolling forth from its many assembly lines. For most the well-known axiom, modified somewhat by BMW, has no greater meaning than the inane slogans offered up by various fast food chains or the nauseating prattle of daytime TV. But spend a little seat time piloting a 330Ci and the true meaning of the words crystallize somewhere deep within the cerebral cortex.

Amazing car
Absolutely amazing. Mine has the upgraded leather package, executive package, and wood trim. Looks great at even 10 years old. Even after almost a decade, car is still worth over $10,000! Drives amazingly, especially if well maintained. An altogether pleasure to drive.

2004 BMW 325i
This car is a good mix of luxury, handling and power for the price. The interior is comfortable for daily commuting and long drives. The handling is superb on the highway and back roads, but be warned suspension is tuned toward handling rather than comfort. Power is somewhat lacking, but purchasing a manual transmission model helps to negate this. Servicing can be expensive but these cars are extremely reliable when taken care of.

My first love!
I have had this car for 1.5 years. It has been good to me. It is so smooth. This was a gift to me from my dad so it meant alot but we run a construction business and I've grown up and its time to move on to a truck and this is the only reason why I have to sell. Everything works and the interior and exterior is 100% perfect. . I know the next person will enjoy this car a lot because I have babied this car and always kept care.

2004 BMW 330XI Performance and Sports Package
This 330XI fully loaded and all the extra packages makes it a fantastic car. It has lots of power in 6 speed and performance add ons which makes this car fun to drive everyday!

All wheel drive especially with winter tires makes snow and ice easy. The only downside is fuel economy, plus with premium fuel you pay more to drive, but its worth the safety.

The body style is classic E46 which is much more distinctive than the newer body styles.

The M tech wheels are super sweet.
