RELIABLE! Smooth driving car! Great acceleration! Minimal mechanical problems.
Love German engineering (my 5th BMW). It's a convertible (my 50th birthday present to myself). It IS quite low to the ground.

A lot of cup holders and very nice compartments.
Has multiple cup holder and compartments all over. Very family friendly car. I love the a/c that runs all through the car. Love how smooth it drives and how fast I can put it to the floor. Love the AUX department so my kids can listen to whatever song they like.

Wonderful combination of attributes.
I truly enjoy driving this car. The handling and acceleration are wonderful. Exhilarating. Was disappointed that android auto is not enabled, but I can connect via Bluetooth. Tire wear does appear to be a concern as there is a sticker from BMW on the windshield to expect 20k or less. When tires run more than $1300/set of 4 it is a consideration for cost of maintenance. There is also no spare, so get run flats or risk getting stuck. At my height, no one can sit behind me, and as long as your passenger is small, you could travel with 2 passengers. No one buys this car to share the experience with more than one, and I love my BMW. I would buy it again. It is a wonderful car to drive and makes me smile every day.

It is fun to drive for a luxury car
It has a lot of power. For a convertible it has a pretty big backseat. Very comfortable and smooth ride. Only complaint is the run flat tires are too expensive.

An interesting detail is the seated heats, I have never had that before!
Its performance is actually really good as well as the reliability comfort and features. However I do have a lot of problems with it and take it to the shop a lot. Stories I think buying a new car would be a better investment, but I love my BMW. I think the main thing is make sure your maintenance is on top.
