BMW 3 Series

When I was choosing a car, I was torn between BMW, Mercedes, and Audi. I test-drove maybe 7 or 8 cars, but I felt like the A4 was about to get a refresh, and the C-Class performance was just average. So when I tried the 2025 3 Series, I didn’t hesitate—I ordered it right away. I’ve had it for about two weeks now and have driven around 1,200 km. Overall impression: excellent! The black color gives it a luxurious and sporty look at the same time, and I chose the interior in “Volcanic Red” – a bold and elegant color that I personally loved. The acceleration is smooth, and the moment you press the gas, especially toward the end of the pedal travel, you really feel the car’s power. As for the big screen (which many people complain about), I was like you at first—I didn’t like it, and I thought the curved screen in the Cadillac looked better. But once I saw the car in person, I got used to it and even started liking it—it’s actually nice and comfortable to use. Regarding the gear selector, many say the traditional gear stick was part of the car’s spirit, but personally, I find the new selector sleek and practical. To be honest, the suspension is a bit softer than it should be. It’s clear that BMW is focusing more on daily comfort. On sharp turns, you can feel the car lean a little, and sometimes I worry it might roll over. In terms of handling, I might say the A4 was more fun at high speeds, but the downside is its interior design is very outdated—the screen is an eyesore! If they just upgraded the interior and systems a bit, it would be excellent in its class. On the other hand, the dealership and service so far have been excellent and comfortable. I’m not too worried about issues like oil or water leaks—after three years, I’ll be switching cars anyway, God willing, so it’s not a big deal. In the end, I chose a car I loved, I’m happy with it, and I have no regrets. And if anyone wants to share their experience, they’re more than welcome!

What I liked most about the new generation of the BMW 3 Series is the exterior design. The pre-facelift version might’ve looked a bit better, but now that they’ve brought back the classic front grille, things are definitely improved. The M sport wheels give the car a luxurious and youthful vibe. Honestly, I think it looks way better than the new 5 Series, which I personally don't like at all. Even though traffic is always heavy, especially during my commute to and from work, the moment I find an opening and step on it — the car responds brilliantly. Sure, electric cars are fast these days, but the feeling of starting a petrol engine, especially the sound of ignition, gives a thrill that EVs just can't replicate. The car's power is excellent, with 245 horsepower and an 8-speed transmission. Gear shifts are smooth and the acceleration is instant. Driving this car is pure fun — and that's something BMW has always nailed. The central screen is decent, but honestly, I miss the traditional gear lever — it gave the cabin a unique character. The ambient lighting is also a bit underwhelming, especially when compared to something like a Mercedes. Rear space is acceptable, but of course, you can’t compare it to an SUV. As for fuel consumption, it’s pretty good for a 2.0 turbo engine. Overall, this car is fun to drive, sporty, and looks great. And for anyone who loves BMW, they know that the driving experience is something truly special.
