@hozisalehi. Cars are not reviewed based off of their brands. They are seen from a market and competitors view. Yes I know what bmw is all about and im sure the guy reviewing it knows about them very well but u have to change the way u view a car by its brand. Its all about what else is in the competition and line up. U wanna go blow 35k on a 1 series go ahead but u really need to see what else the market is offering. I mean even a company like infiniti is a driver based cars but its jst as good
What kinda guy would get into a BMW and talk about the iDrive? Or the cup holder? Oh, i know! The fag kind! Dude you really should change your approach about cars. When someone buys a bmw they talk about how it feels when it drives, how it handles, not complain about how little space is in the back! This 1-series is made for drivers. Y'know what? Why don't you just get back in your "spacious" van and get it over with. This car is not for you.
Usually push button start requires the driver to have a kind of "chip" within close range of the car. You usually have that "chip" instead of your car key onto your keyring.
BMW need to get real. If Honda can make a Civic for 20K and an Accord for 25K, BMW need to come down their high horse and charge a lot less for their entry model.
@GlockNinja lol... 20k civic? What does that output? 140HP? 25k accord is.... lets see... 190HP. Neither of them comes close to the 28k 128i at 230HP. Plus it's a BMW.
FYI, if you really wanted a fair comparison, try comparing BMW to it's more luxurious counterparts, such as Acura (owned by Honda). It's like comparing BMW to Chevy. It's wrong. You would compare it to Cadillac (owned by GM, which makes Chevy). Hope that helps.
@asdfgoogle I have owned a BMW. Aside from the curb appeal, it drove and handled clunky unless I pushed it to higher speeds. I compare it to a Maxima (even though its a front wheel drive). Aside from "heavy duty" style engineering compared to the Civic, the BMW is a Chevy.
@GlockNinja I've owned a 1995 BMW 325is (nothing but electrical problems and the cost of owning it is ridiculous. Oil change was $65 to $80 not to mention everything else costing a fortune to maintain). That is not good engineering, that is just plain corruption. I OWN (STILL OWN) a 1998 Honda Civic. Enough Said.
@GlockNinja I'm totally agree, as ex owner of 3 bimmer's, 2 E36, and an E46 i can say is too expensive to maintainance, not problems from the engine and mechanical but inside refinements are cheap and delicate especially on the E36,better on the E46 aniway now i have a Lexus IS220d (180hp turbodiesel 2.2 liter and i'm very happy with it). Sorry for my bad english.
@asdfgoogle 230HP in a BMW even if its the size of a "mini" is not enough. Trust me. Germans make their cars heavy and glutinous. 8 courts of oil for a 6 cylinder...don't know what else to call it but glutinous. VW, BMW, Mercedes, and all European cars need to come down from their high horse. The Honda Civic is the most perfectly engineered automobile in the world. At 1/4 the price of a VW, BMW, Mercedes, pound for pound....nothing beats the Honda as an automobile.
@Caseybat94 I was just on MSN Auto, and yeah, they're both 3.0L V6's. I don't know if what you were saying was a rhetorical question, because it also looks like you answered your own question. lol.
@asdfgoogle haha lol, i guess i did answer my quesion, but i know my bimmers like i know.... uhh something i know very well lol... but thx for verifying anyways.
Awesome review! Very helpful as well. Keep up the great work.
