2013 BMW 128 consumer reviews

This car has been a ton of fun to own. I searched far and wide to find a 128i couple in dark gray, with navigation. Patience paid off and I found the one I currently own several months later, and it has been an absolute showstopper. I am constantly getting compliments on this car, even though it is now seven years old. It is aging very gracefully and has not been hard to maintain. Highly recommend.

This car is very amazing and so in love to drive it! Still learning some features of my new BMW X3 2017. I would recomend the BMW car to my daugjter.

The vehicle was advertised accurately. Naples Auto Group was easy and honest to deal with. Most of the dialogue was over the phone...and the purchase was smooth. five stars to the dealer and I would definitely recommend anyone to purchase a car with this dealer.

I have driven a stick-shift all my life, but this tops the experience. I chose it because of the small size and total visibility all around. The stability is exceptional. Being a German car, it doesn't provide much storage, but that was expected. Main problem is distance for dealerships because I live near NOTHING.

This car is a dream car ! It is perfect for women as well as men with minimal but modern interior and intricate exterior. It has 3.0 engine with 6 cylinders which make it an excellent companion on the highway. The horse power is 230 which suits well those who are up for some fun rides !

I have have gone in the last 10 years from a 2004 Miata LS to a 2006 Audi S-4 now to a 2013 128 i. Could not fit comfortably in the Miata, did not like the light steering feel and weight of the S-4, but those issues are solved with my M packaged 128i convertible MT. Purchased the car 11 months ago from a BMW dealer with 18 K on the odometer, essentially a new car. Speakers not working properly perhaps loose connections.

Sporty ride, great value, sharp looking car! Five star vehicle at a great price (around 35k before upgrades). The only reason I gave 4 stars for interior style is due to the leatherette seats. But overall, a great reliable sporty car.

This is our 4th BMW and our first 1 series. We drove one in Europe and liked it so much we came back and bought one. The 128 is extremely fast and nimble. The only fault with the car is the top goes down and up relatively slowly. But it is BMW through and through, with all the bells and whistles yo'd expect.

Great car. Good performance. very comfortable with the optional BMW Sport Seats. Getting 27 mpg driving responsibly. Up to now I have only driven this car for fun cause I had a "beater" to drive on errands, so my reliability rating is only based on 8k mi. Great motor, great handling, I have the M option so a little better than standard. It's a little stiff at low speeds on bumpy pavement but that might be because of the run flat tires. What BMW does wrong? No: dipstick, temperature gauge, ammeter, spare tire and NO limited slip differential which I really miss in a "Sports Sedan". You can cruise effortlessly at 80 mph and the car tracks nice and straight. In fact the faster you go the more comfortable it is. It has a "hill holder" clutch on it which I do not like. It prevents the car from rolling back wards on a hill. Having learned how to drive a stick the right way, this little assist is off putting and feels unnatural. The computer controlled throttle makes it very difficult to "heal and toe" which is really annoying in the "ultimate sports sedan". Now let's talk about corporate BMW. It's hard not to feel taken advantage of. You can't even change the battery without hooking it up to a BMW computer. That's not necessary and it's just wrong. I feel very much BMW wants to corral all the customers into the dealer service bay to keep the dealers solvent. I have two floor jacks and a dozen jack stands and I can't put this car on stands. If you jack it on the jacking points, there's no place to put the stands, believe it or not. You can't get to the underside because you can't put it on stands and can't get it high enough to take the aerodynamic pan off from under the front of the car so, you can't put the stands under the suspension because the pan blocks this. The only way you can get this car up to work on it is on a lift. It's a great driving car but it will be my last BMW.

Fun, great mileage, and handles like a BMW. 3.0 engine is almost bullet proof. Plus has a unique style. For the money it can't be beat.
