I have had my 2015 320i since Nov. 2018 with 30K miles. Let me tell yall, this car is phenomenal. My biggest initial concern was the cut off power @ 184 HP compared to my friends 328i at around 240hp. Before I had even put a tune in, the cars were almost the same in power, slightly quicker in 328i. I have installed a BM3 Stage 1 and this car gets quick now, turbos scream with only 3lbs added to boost. Super reliable so far, basic maintenance needed. Seats in my opinion are comfy never had my ass hurt even in 6 hour road trips. Overall super good intro car for a BMW.
"the nice thing about buying a used BMW is the exterior doesn't change much. Your car will look relevant" This is good since it keeps the pressure off you
sure, the 320i from 2013 to 2019 they all look the same outside.I drive 2013 model, l think it should be equiped with sport+ plus model, but in general the bmw 320i is a very good car, and it is very faster just in few seconds you hit 140km/h speed.
How did you go? I'm in Australia, I got one with 122,000 kilometres (we talk in kilometres here) equates to around 75,800 miles, cost me 14,500 AUD (around 10,900 USD) which I thought was a really good deal. Most similar cars at the time were going for between 17,000 - 20,000 AUD but the guy really wanted to sell.
@@marknorris1381 just make sure there’s no problems, best to have a mechanic friend to go with you when getting any car. I didn’t get it but check Kelley blue book to know if it’s a good deal
@@jacobbio for sure. This car was good in that it had it's full service and maintenance history available as well. I wouldn't buy a more expensive car without it.
I’m looking at the same car but a 2014 model. Would you recommend this as a first car for a 16 year old . And also what problem should I worry about. Thanks
As long as you have an emergency fund of some sort so you can cover unexpected repairs. Make sure you have a good independent mechanic that understands BMW.
I heard these 3 series had timings chain issues. I got a 2011 3 series with 86000 miles and my timing is stretched and making noise Bmw quoted me £2500 for a new chain. I want to buy the newer shape wonder if is gud on timing chain
Hi. I’m in South Africa been interested in one going for about R250k roughly ($14k) it’s a 2015 model 3 series too. At around 70 000kilos roughly (44 000miles) spare key and full service history available along with a dekra(reputable company does car inspection) report that shows the car as almost completely perfect. With all those things mentioned, do you think this is a good deal or could there be mechanical issues/unfair pricing?
just bought one with 55k KM . very happy with it but it wobbles a bit. feels like the car is sitting on springs and there is no rebound. soo weird. dont now what to do
I am about to buy one in Vietnam, the price is about 30.000usd. Cars here are expansive. So I want to make sure the car is good, I don't know much about cars tho.
I have this type of car. I’m having trouble on what oil it needs but I look on the Manuel for the recommendation, best one was “castrol bmw high performance SAE 5w-30.” But there so many same but different I wanna make sure I get the right” one.
Masry Motors the thing is tho i don’t know how it looks there just so many, there a black one and yellow one idk. I just bought this car and people said to use the European Castrol oil or use regular. But I did some research These bmw take special oil. I wanna make sure I get the right one do you think you have a link for the oil?

@@ambientsounds1416 alpine white is just solid white like paper. Mineral white metallic is a very small hint of beige and it has sparkles. Has this glow effect at night when lights hit it. It looks more glossier and more reflective. Mineral white is recommended if you want attention from females. I know because I own an E92 M3 Competition pack that is mineral white metallic. Stay away from base model 3 series like this one. Boring, slow, heavily depreciating because no one wants a four cylinder base model, and not aggressive looking. I recommend F30 335i M sport, or the facelift, 340i M sport. Those are fast, fun and look sporty. They hold their value a lot better. But if you want a full blown sports car, get the F80 M3. The M3 has agressive wider body, agressive bumpers, and very powerful engine and transimissions. plus a whole bunch of other goodies - a lot to name.

Service history is important, you should be able to get a few years without any major issues. Good luck!
Masry Motors good advice 👍🏾
Hi, I am in South Africa and looking to get a red one priced at R140 000($7500) at 115000KMs. What problems should I anticipate?
Check for oil leaks at the valve cover and oil filter housing. Those are most common. Thanks for watching!

have you had any problems with the engine or timing chain?

Are they good cars I just saw one for 9k 100k miles what you think let me know?? Seen several had issues with timing chain🤔
