After having the car a month, the mpg is a lot worse than I thought it would be.

Tons of brake dust on the wheels, even more than my
350z would have by far.

Also to check the oil is not a fun task.

Oh and did I mention I think the tire wear rating on the 19 inch tires are 140, that is crazy.

After 1400 miles, the lack of headroom is my only complaint.

Things to think about

Some of the things mentioned sound like no one did their research before buying the car. I here lots of people complaining about the gas. Come on!! you want to compare it to a truck or a hybrid?? wake up. I also like others have other cars. I have a XLR and a Ford Explorer. Yes the explorer gets better gas millage and has better paint. But, my XLR gets allot worse gas millage. You get what you pay for. You want a sports car than deal with the minor issues it comes with.

Their are a couple things that I agree it has problems withNANA:
1. Very Poor Paint
2. Needs to add a meter for the heated seats and add the cooling seats
3. Heated and cold cup holders would be great
4. Changing tires, Sucks
5. No Memory seats
6. Bluetooth Sucks



All things that could be added or fixed. Also for the person who compare it to their truck for gas millage, what the f**k!! you drive at 65MPH on the free way. WOW, you wouldn't last two minutes in california. We tend to drive 65 on the street and at least 80-100 on the free way. So your gas millage is lame. Also you complained about gas! you live on the east coast, gas is cheaper their and yet you still complain..

MPG, interior rattles (and it only gets worse as time goes on), engine roughness, transmission vibrates alot, wish everything be more smooth. clutch engagement is crap. SLOW... from any speed. overall roughness with the car.. doesn't pull smoothly like a BMW, yet it also doesnt pull hard like a Vett with this kind of roughness. car feels heavy at all times, interior quality really isn't up to part with cars in its class.

i hope the new G37 fixes all the problems.. or else 335i looks REAL tempting especially with the TT and how easy/affordable to mod it and make it into a monster.
