2011 BMW 328i Start Up, Exhaust, and In Depth Tour

[GingerSnowSpice]

i love your videos.

[PiranhaJaw22]

Is there no speed limiter on this vehicle?

[Rastasandrainbows]

@PiranhaJaw22 it cuts off around 135-139

[PiranhaJaw22]

@Rastasandrainbows Sorry I meant the tachometer rev. limiter.

[Bimmersnob]

Sweet ride. I'm an Audi owner now, but BMW will always be the coolest car in the world to me.

[UnboundLegend]

@GregWn Dude how many comments do you post?!

[GregWn]

I don't think you mentioned the capability of the side mirrors to fold.

[GregWn]

What is the ajustment you mention at 13:10? Nice color...what is it called? Thanks.

[GregWn]

@GregWn Ok, said color at 1:15.

[GregWn]

11:49...Hmmmm...I learned something...I didn't know that cubby stoarge existed! I just went out to look. What are those two pieces of plastic in the cubby? Thanks.

[GregWn]

Car does not have a spare tire. Tires that come with the car have a stiff sidewall that gives a harsh ride. A lot of people trade them in. VERY expensive to replace these tires. A nail hole in the tire cannot be fixed.

[GregWn]

No idrive/navigation system? That is probably the best thing about the car. Forget the $50,000+ quote. The idrive/nav is impressive.

[GregWn]

Car makes high-pitch whine for about 45 seconds EVERY time you open or close any door or the trunk. Irritating when in your garage. The visors are very short; if the driver's seat is reclined the sun will shine on your face. No visor exteneder. The auto-dimmer on the rear view mirror means you have no control when it is dimmed, so a twiligth you may still get bright lights shining in the mirror and you cannot adjust the mirror.

[GregWn]

All those options and you're looking at $50,000+

[GregWn]

I don't think people like keyless entry...it deprives them of the pleasure of using the remote to get the car to wail. Many people love to do it several times before they get to the car!

[GregWn]

@GregWn That being said, the BMW is cool in that respect in that it does not wail, just flashes it's lights. Less noise pollution.

[GregWn]

Basically, the transmission won't let the car glide. Around town, it almost feels like the emergency brake is on. Back off the throttle, and some program says: The driver wants to slow down. Let's help him! You're going 20 mph and ease off the gas for a red light, intending to coast there, and it downshifts so eagerly that you have to get back on the gas to get to the intersection.

[GregWn]

@GregWn It's like the 3 Series is a pickup truck with its transmission in perpetual tow/haul mode. That's great on a race track, but a bit too tense for everyday loafing around.

[5serieslover]

Please stop revvingg cold engines :(

[qeddeq1]

this guy has absolutely no personality. a robocall has more life in it than this guy's voice. what a total stiff.

[GregWn]

@qeddeq1 Sounds professional to me.

[bmwmsport11]

@pnjabiruff adding nav wouldn't do anything. It's still a plain looking BMW not worth a look at unless you want one. A base Mercedes Benz c300 is more striking, but there not as reliable as bmws

[HollywoodNeverGiveUp]

I'm buying this car!

[pnjabiruff]

worthless without navigation



[7477238]

@pnjabiruff Right because navigation will make it handle better, make the engine run smoother and make the car more solidly built. Lol there is so much more to this sedan but of course materialistic people like you won't want the car for that because it's about bragging rights and badge right?

[pnjabiruff]

@7477238 your just a moron

[7477238]

@pnjabiruff You're mad because I made a point? The car still starts and drives amazing, navi won't make it go faster. I'm sure you're so high profile that you go to so many places and need navigation...

[GregWn]

@7477238 Not getting into debate here, but the nav is just the nav, it comes with the I-drive which is very cool, including a 12GB hard drive.

[Hidezepickle]

You can never go wrong with the sound of BMW's inline six. With turbo's or without, it's a fine but modest sounding engine.

[BKE328]

By the way, to get the Xenon's and heated seats only costs a little more on the 328i Sedans. They are standard on the 328i coupes and 335i sedans and coupes. They're an excellent value and retain their resale value better than any car that I know of. As you can tell...I'm a BMW lover! :)

[BKE328]

I have a 2011 BMW 328i with the Premium and Sport Packages along with heated front seats and BMW bi-xenon adaptive headlights. Basically everything but Navigation and I love the car. This is my 4th BMW and they just simply (in my opinion) cannot be beat. They truly are the "Ulitimate Driving Machine." Thanks again for all y our in depth reviews!

[GregWn]

@BKE328 Do you feel the engine breaking at slow speeds, especially stop-and-go traffic and parking garages as the car downshifts hard? Can make me nauseous. Probably only effects drivers who also get car sick as passengers.

[WINGSOFG0D]

@countkev you can get /Msport facelift or tech package this is basic as shit

[Slacking02]

they let me borrow one of these everytime i have my ///M serviced....

[corvetkidable]

hey kyle can u do a 2006-2008 bmw 3-series

[corvetkidable]

love the car... hate the maintenance

[hospitaler808]

now thats a good sounding engine

[sidekick257]

what does the sport package add?

[ThousanWhite]

I just really hate the interior of the 3-series...and the exterior doesn't really do much for me either. I'm more of a 5-series sort of guy

[evanbella99]

@ThousanWhite I personally think that BMW's are pretty ugly in general. I do like the M6, though.

[ThousanWhite]

@evanbella99 The 2012 redesign of the 3-series looks a lot better.

[evanbella99]

@ThousanWhite It was redesigned?

[ThousanWhite]

@evanbella99 Yep. BMW just release photos and videos last week. Redesigned the exterior and interior for the 3-series. Looks a lot better IMO

[egocd]

No nav or HID's. Reviewing the wrong model!

[MnyMrk]

no spare tire?

[notgoncry]

@MnyMrk run flat tires

[GregWn]

@MnyMrk Nope, which is a problem if you want some less rigid tires that are not run flat.

[jasonnyc415]

Do all 2011 3 series have the corona rings, including the base model?

[iAaronHD]

I like BMW, but man every single car looks painfully alike.

[GorillaMunchIsGood]

YOU FORGOT TO HONK THE HORN. MY LIFE CAN NEVER BE COMPLETE NOW.

[wokeupthismorning100]

@GorillaMunchIsGood FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF­FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF­FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF­FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF­FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF­FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF­FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF­FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

[kellytamayo]

@wokeupthismorning100 Wha...?

[kellytamayo]

@GorillaMunchIsGood Why do you always talk about the horn?

[kellytamayo]

@GorillaMunchIsGood Why do you always talk about the horn? Why is your words capitalized?

[immortal4942]

most abundant car in north america. see more of these than hyundais and kias.

[drcheese42]

Nice tyres. Not sure about the car though...

[JonnyFlash80]

What a sexy sedan. Someday it will be mine.

[DieselDan09]

Wow nothing I that car!!!! BMW how does Audi's balls taste???? Lol

[jonwilliams16]

that "aluminum" gets damaged so easily if you aren't careful

[punisherfactor]

This vehicle looks cheap on the inside

[counkev]

What the Hell ! This car which costs 35,000 dollars doesn't have HID headlights or projector headlights. Most cars now a days have projector headlights at least and they are much lower priced. And I am pretty sure the previous models had HIDs or Projectors.

[jsiszero]

@counkev

who cares, it's a BMW.

[JoshJW11]

@counkev I care, just because its a BMW doesn't excuse the face it doesn't have project headlights... This beemer actually looks a little bland to me.

[Rayportugal]

@counkev I wish cars were that cheap in Portugal.. This car costs 75.000 dollars here :(

For those 35.000 we can buy a 1.4 VW Golf

[counkev]

@Rayportugal Wow that sucks. The Golf here starts at $18,000

[Ginger6259]

@counkev my 02' 325i (e46) has them

[Ginger6259]

@counkev my 02' 325i (e46) has them

[mrrokoso]

@counkev This is the base model thats why, and here in México the top of line BMW has tons of differnet stuff including HID headlights.

[NyCFrEsH100]

@counkev the base model with no options thats why

[apocgamer]

@NyCFrEsH100 it has sport pkg and comfort access pkg

[apocgamer]

@counkev They cost extra on the 328i, 335i they are standard same for the 1 series.

[zilverzero]

@counkev it has a xenon package for extra 900 X_X

[perfoodleschnitz]

@counkev Specify "most". 

[water892]

@counkev you can get it with the HID headlights and you can get projector headlights, it is standard on the 335i and you get it on the 328i

[McWeslyF1]

@counkev The badge costs $ 35,000

[whoregay]

@counkev If you can afford 35k to buy this car, then you can afford another grand to connect HID's, DICK.

[counkev]

@whoregay Hey idiot why you getting all excited over nothing. I am just stating the obvious and you get all butthurt. For the price they should come standard. And you're acting like I insulted your mother or something... Calling me a DICK for no apparent reason. 

[1731816]

Can you do a review on the 2012 volvo xc70 and the xc90

[BrianTheBoss16]

can u get a coupe version

[BLuMag1k]

sport package with no HID headlights? BMW dont start slacking!

[YLOVELONDON]

blue bmw 328i :|

[IncredableDrE]

ZOMFG my grandfather just bought one and so did I 4 weeks later LOL. They both have I drive.

[dawgmanfat]

the honda civic of rich people

[TheGadgetReviewer10]

them 14 dislikers obviously had a spas attack in their arm s soon as they went 2 like it =]

[SeussOfVA]

nice car, nice camera, nice video.

[thesuperdingos]

I don't get why this car is so expensive. Nothing about it is really impressive at all. Many of the features it comes with are common features that are on any Honda, Ford, or Chevy.

That radio is HORRIBLE looking. Straight from 1992

[JoeCaliforniah]

@thesuperdingos expensive? this car is entry level cheap car. what u talkin bout?

[thesuperdingos]

For what it features, 35K is pretty expensive.

[GregWn]

@thesuperdingos Actually this car has quite a few options...sports package, keyless entry, premium package, 17' whlles. From from basic model.

[GregWn]

@JoeCaliforniah Depends on your definition of cheap. WIth the options shown, probably about $45,000.

[evanbella99]

@thesuperdingos It's expensive because its a BMW. Lol

[Darkherooftheday]

@thesuperdingos and only 230 horsepower. Hell, you get 280 in a base Dodge Caravan now.

[7477238]

@Darkherooftheday True but this car has a potent 230 HP. Very smooth and good low end torque plus good gearing in the transmission. In real world testing this car is faster than the Cadillac CTS with or without the DI motor.

[HuBrFe]

@thesuperdingos you just say that because you obviously dont had a bmw.

Sorry for the bad english, its because i am brazillian,

[7477238]

@thesuperdingos This car is not about interior features it's about driving and hustling up the twisty roads in good form. The idea behind the 3 series is to keep it simple but keep the charm of a BMW, that being a smooth powertrain and excellent handling characteristics. Try driving any of the cars you mentioned like a BMW and they won't be as fun.

[GregWn]

@7477238 BMW handles very well, but so irritating at slow speeds when up on the gas...car down shifts hard and doesn't coast well. Can be a jarring experience in stop-and-go traffic. It's due to the Steptronic Transmission.

[mihaiflorea86]

hi kyle,i see all u clips but u dont have a one with bmw e90 sedan 2007,in the future i hope so to recording one....thanks and greatings from romania.

[Luke7195]

good sedan :)

[Toni7859]

blow it up. lol.

[MrSameh223]

how come this doesn't have idrive??

[Luke7195]

@MrSameh223 3 series dun have

[GregWn]

@MrSameh223 Because it does not have nav - they go together.

[Perfect5Recurve]

@saabkyle04 Hey Kyle. I see on alot of your videos cars now using these fob proximity sensors. For clarification, when locking, it obviously locks all doors but, when unlocking, does it unlock all doors or just the driver and passenger? Thanks for your clarification!

[GregWn]

@Perfect5Recurve One press for driver; two for passengers.

[CarFan324]

@saabkyle04 Kyle, please try to make a video of a 07'-11' acura MDX

[JoeBird76]

Ive always disliked the radio's lights and other lighting in BMWs. That orange/red color it has going on. It looks very cheap..late 80s or something.

[CCCommander]

@JoeBird76 BMW's always used red illumination on the dash because the color red has the least effect on your ability to see at night

[apocgamer]

BMW for life

[connormink]

i love this chime

[GregWn]

@connormink Chime is great!! But high-pitdh whine when open or close any door or trunk is a PAIN.

[dundermiflin892]

my friend has this car and its so low and the interior was so high.... if that makes sense i just felt so small when i was sitting in it lol

[GregWn]

@dundermiflin892 Actaully a lot of leg room, and a Camry for example is lower to the ground.

[jacquelinej13]

i just fell in love

[ThousanWhite]

I test drove one of these about 8 months ago. I was a bit underwhelmed.

[FrenchValleyAirport]

@austinman1995 damn your rich

[evanbella99]

@FrenchValleyAirport Not necessarily. My aunt has the coupe version of this, and she has a simple little house. It just depends on what you spend your money on: Car or House.

[MrOla5345]

best part 13:44 xDDD

[yourhero36]

I do not like the Brushed aluminum interior, much nicer with wood trim.

[pnjabiruff]

no navigation :(

[PremierAutoMan86]

I still a bit peeved that a phantom has the same door chime lol love em nonetheless bmw group ftw

[derekjlight]

10:00 Prince lol.

[derekjlight]

The performance difference between this and the 335 is so huge.

[WHATEVER956]

Do a Ford raptor

[90Mrknowitall]

@WHATEVER956 he has it one his channel dude

[MrMsmers]

Nice. Audio. On this. Car

[GregWn]

@MrMsmers Yes, audio is great, and plays mp3's great. Has subwoofers in the doors. Ten speakers standard.

[nflfan421]

nice car.

[gabrielgeniodomal]

Can you do a Toyota Supra pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease­eeeeeeee *----* ?

[datpimpinboy]

No spare tire?

[nhegui]

@datpimpinboy I think it uses run-flat tires

[datboiwes333]

@datpimpinboy no BMW got rid of spare tires and provides run-flat tires.

[datpimpinboy]

@datboiwes333 Oh ok thanks man

[datpimpinboy]

I always thought that 328 meant the car was a 2.8 liter, but I guess I was wrong. And I really don't like cars that have both exhausts in one side.

[ThatCheetosGuy79]

you should put up the chevy truck

[teraintegra89]

kyle .. can you do a E92 m sport , please ?? thx in advance

[paintedd]

@TheYamahaKodiak You should probably just stick to walking if you like things so simple. ;)

[yellowcow13]

What a great chime

[NattDogg01]

I really like this car. I wonder which engine would be preferable to have: the naturally aspirated I6 in this or the twin-turbo I6 in the 335i? I know the 335i is faster but I have also been told that the 328i is really slow and that you must buy the 335i.

[igeekone]

@NattDogg01 What do you do, wanna take this on the track? I've driven the 328i and believe me it has more than enough power to get you in trouble.

[NattDogg01]

@igeekone I have not driven a new 3-Series and I was just wondering. That is just what I was told. The person I was talking to may have driven the 325i and thought it was slow. I don't know.

[Goldenrod636]

I love that exterior color.

[rhyno514]

i thought all new bmws came with a hid kit

[ILikeReallyBigButts]

@rhyno514 Not the 3,1,x3 series.

[crystalscan2002]

@kyle whens the shebly gt 500 coming???

[HyperbirdF6]

this car has fuck all in it and i bet it costs way more than its competitors...hate bmw for that

[GregWn]

@HyperbirdF6 Options really drive up the price.

[BrantFortunate]

i wouldnt mind driving a base 3 series with manual tranny, would be nice.

[demid10]

how much does it cost?

[bbbyeo]

does all the BMW models come with the runflat Tyre as standard?

[crimsoncoin]

seems everyones ripping off the audi concept - im liking the new Jag

[goldeneye4564]

i test drove a 135i its like a 2 door version of the 328i same motor though and all wheel drive and that car was wicked fast

[LordKevin92]

bmw, mercedes, audi or porsche? which better?

[TheEtiennecorporaal]

@LordKevin92 Audi

[Duratec86]

Ahhh man BMW deleted the rear seat cargo nets on the backs? Those were handy to have. NICE car, love the blue on black combo.

[xXNinjaTunaXx]

could you do the 135i convertible?

[tobats2]

Break My Wallet.

[gentle285]

nice review

[kr0pp]

very smooth engine because its straight-6. S6 produces very little vibration.

[GamerAndReviewer]

My aunt has one 316i in grey. Very nice car.

[BRR]

great video as always. Kyle, correct me if I'm wrong, but I did not notice an engine temp. gauge on the instrument panel. Is it the old idiot light instead?I personally prefer gauges.

[bsdpowa]

I never understood "manual" gear changing option with automatic transmissions, if you want to shift, buy a stick ffs!

[MightyMadMax1]

very nice colour!



[PRODRIFTER97]

Please do one of a bmw m5 as my Dad might be buying one.

[JoeCaliforniah]

@PRODRIFTER97 2010 used m5 only. no more new 2011 models

[igeekone]

The inline 6 coupled with a manual transmission makes this an ideal daily driver.
