2008 328i
Got one today as a loaner while my 645 is having stuff done, not a bad little ride. Plenty of pickup for the smallest motor in the Bimmer line.

Friend of mine got one as a loaner while his 5-series wagon was being repaired (again). He enjoyed driving it so much that he traded in the 5-series and leased a 328xi two weeks later...

I think the 328i engine is pretty nice and has lots of pep. Seemed better than the previous engine in the 530i and 330i.

I'll bring the 325i up next time. The 3 sedan really needs the sport package. Gearbox is a bit dimwitted though.

The '08 X3 is still more exciting though. Got one as a loaner and didnt want to give the keys back for the 325i.

But BMW just sells cars in the US now?

The 3.0 litre is only the smallest motor in the line in something like 22% of BMW's market, also knows as the USA.

Yes, and a few bikes

The X series is a car on Tonka-Toy wheels
