CONS: BATTERY issues

REVIEW: I have 6 months on my lease and can't wait to get out of this car. The car looks and drives nice, but I can't believe I walk to my car hoping it starts. Battery drains, bmw service rep said I need to charge the battery every night because my daily trips are too short... who has time to ...

CONS: EVERYBODY wants to race, pass you, then get in front to slow down!

REVIEW: I get a new one every three years, I use it for work. I put almost 40k miles a year. Very dependable, reliable, great handling, SOLID CAR, very good on gas and very safe. When you need to step on it to get out of trouble, IT TIME TRAVELS! I'm in Miami Fl USA. I wish I could get the 535d ( ...

I have owned infiniti and acura before and ...

CONS: iDrive, acceleration

REVIEW: Typical, gorgeous BMW classic look on the outside - can't be beat for distinctiveness and class. This "beast" a bit slow on acceleration, but can't beat the ride once you get up to speed. Better, much smoother ride than the last model. Great lights, and driving position. Cup ...

CONS: I have had the car for 18 months, and have had 3 - 4 problems

REVIEW: This was my 4th BMW and first 5 series. The car is solid as a rock, finish if great, and the twin turbo helps it to fly ! The biggest issue I have had is that the battery continues to drain, and the dealer says that is normal and to charge the battery at night. I have never had to do this with any ...

CONS: None so far

REVIEW: Test drove the Lexus ES 350, Infiniti M35x and Hyundai Genesis first - but had to go with the Beemer. All of these competitor's autos are very good (actually believe it or not the Hyundai Genesis was the best of the three - Hyundai is now a force to be reckoned with) - but none of the ...
