The car rides very smooth!
I haven't had problems out of the car. I recently just got it so everything seems to be going completely fine. It just requires a lot of gas I think that is about it. The previous car owner also said they didn't have really any problems out of the car. Although they got in a car wreck and got the car fixed up.

The one most important thing is that this vehicle is light and quite quick.
No complaints, this vehicle handles very well, looks fantastic and isn't awful on gas unless you drive like a maniac.

BMW 228i summary and review.
No problems at all. 6 speed manual which works really well and shifts smoothly. The car is super reliable and looks great as well. I suggest upgrading the exhaust because it does not sound too good when it is stock. I have the red leather interior and it looks beautiful and looks brand new after 6 years of use.

Great car to have, comfortable, trendy and safe.
Mostly I do not have problem with my car, great performance. It is convertible, very sporty.. I can ride very comfortably during any weather. The break works well, the gear is solid even during winter time. Features are lovely, I can any anytime to ask about the road, traffic. On the dashboard speed limit is shown, map and navigation shown if activate it.

Interesting detail, it had led lights and four doors and it is a dark blue.
None the car had no problems to it, the brakes are amazing, the gas pedal is amazing, I love the color of it. Many people I do not see with my type of car it is amazing, it has 4 doors and has lots of room on the inside. I have a baby and he fits just perfect inside of it:) I love it.

Fast and fun but compact coupe.
Sporty fun, fast, looks great. Have to be regularly maintained like any other car. Just expect to pay more for because of the brand. Fuel economy is average at best (25 mpg). Smaller 2 door coupe small trunk. Not the best for families or someone moving a lot of gear regularly.

Quick and sporty, luxurious and comfortable.
The 228i has been very reliable and performs really well. The turbo 4 cylinder makes it quick and agile, but it has all the comforts and luxuries that come with a BMW. My model is a 2014 but the technology does not feel at all outdated. I have not had any issues with the vehicle and have only put money into regular maintenance.

No complaints about it. Like the way it drives. It is easy to maintain. It has all the features I wanted in a car.

The problems I have with my vehicle are horrible in the fact that I need a oil change like what but whatever I guess thats what it takes to maintain a car so I wish I could bulshit this and get some extra money and on top of that there should be dogs and cat in cars because that swam yeah.

The life of an automobile.
I love them because of their reliability and when the engine roars it feels like on your face there are sores from the scores of all that fast wind rubbing against your face while your scurrying to win the race.

Just perfect the way it is
I love speed and I don't want to get a ticket so maybe if there is something that could Do you check the radar gun pointed at the car, but if not then the car is perfect just the way it is or put a speed Control in the car so someone like me wouldn't get a ticket

Very comfortable nice car.
It looks like very small, but inside is very good size and nice interior and very comfortable. And the computer system of the monitor is very organized and all good, but it is a little inconvenient that the camera does not monitor when reversing the car.
