2004 BMW 3 Series Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

I love my car. It's my first luxury car and i won't drive anything else. It drive's smooth and has many amenities

This car is very reliable, but does require a lot of maintenance, ours is kind of old so as you'd expect the interior isn't so great anymore

The stylish body, push of a button convertible top make this a great vehicle for cruising. The comfortable seats have programmable memory settings, heated and electric adjustments to make entering rear seats easy. The bright headlights are automatically programmed to turn on in dim light. The windshield wipers have automatic rain sensor. Direct stability control, cruise control, air condition ambient temperature control, power mirrors, power windows and door locks. The performance is great, maintenance is average cost. I recommend this car as an entry level BMW.

This is a great car, though small it has all wheel drive so is good in the snow. I do have a problem with the thermostat so the ac will not work but will fix. I bought this car used and haven't had many problems. I love the car. I have two small kids and it is just big enough for all of us.

It's been amazing, I've owned it for 9 years, no big surprise issues beyond normal maintenance at 100k+ miles. Great gas mileage, reliable,- only issue is poor cup holder section, only one is usable if you want to use armrest and the airbag recall which was taken care of.

Performance is great for an older car, overtaking is no problem. Many rumors about BMW not being very reliable but my car has had minimal problems on my 3+ years of ownership. Had to replace cooling system in the car after a couple of months, but after that there has not been any problems. The comfort in the car is alright. It is a smaller car so there isn't as much leg room or space as a luxury sedan, of course, but not a problem. The vehicle has heated and motor seats, AC, AM/FM radio, 17 inch rims in front, 18 in the back.

I have my car for 5 years now and absolutely love, never had major problems with it, transmission oil change, the tires can be a little pricey cause is 2 different tires for front and not the same for the rear as it is a sports car, drives smooth everything has been working great!

Really good car, smooth ride. I love riding in this car and the power that it has. The car is not too well on gas, however. Have to fill up my tank almost every week. The car is very comfortable. AC and heat work really well in this car. There are also seat warmers in this car that provides for a comfortable ride! The car is also very spacious it seats five people and it also has a very spacious trunk. There also includes a sunroof that opens up and allows for a good breeze to come through. Overall, I love this car and would recommend it for a car buyer!
