BMW 4 Series

BMW launched the 4 Series in 2014 as a two-door version of its iconic 3 Series sports sedan. Like that model, it's known for its engaging performance and stylish design, which comes in a variety of body styles, including a coupe, a convertible, and (since 2015) a sleek four-door hatchback called the Gran Coupe. Under the hood, the 4 Series' available powertrains range from efficient four-cylinders to robust six-cylinders, and its handling is sharp and responsive, making it a pleasure to drive. Despite its sporty nature, the ride remains comfortable enough for daily commuting. Inside the cabin, the 4 Series impresses with high-quality materials and craftsmanship. Front-seat occupants will find plenty of space, but the rear seats might feel cramped for taller passengers, particularly in the coupe and convertible models. Additionally, the infotainment system, while rich in features, can be somewhat complex to navigate, especially for new users. Owners of the 4 Series report reasonable fuel economy and average reliability for the class.

2015 BMW 428i Convertible

I love, love my car but have a handful of frustrations with it. 1. The rear seat is difficult for my small children to get in and out of 2. The standard features were missing some basics that I would expect out of a BMW like keyless entry 3. The audio system is incredibly complex and is not easy to use or intuitive 4. I can't get the BMW iPhone app to connect to my vehicle

Beautiful car, fun to drive. Electronics and controls a little glitchy. Already have some rattles.

The only problem we had with this BMW is that one of the windshield wipers came off. That problem was resolved and have had no more problems.

Shifting in the lower gears (1-2) is sometimes unpredictable, especially in stop and go traffic. It is not always smooth when it shifts in the lower gears. However, if accelerating from a stop to a speed of 20 mph or above, the shifting is smooth and predictable in that scenario.

2015 BMW 435i Gran Coupe

The vehicle is wonderful. I had a difficulty conveying my thoughts in the survey because I also own two other BMWs. My 10 year old 330i is a perfect car. As wonderful as my new 435i is, it doesn't seem to match the older car in comfort. Not really a problem or an issue. It's possible that I chose the wrong model or the new technology/models don't quite match the classic BMW comfort. However, the new car is wonderful.

I would like more than 1 USB connection. Would like trunk to shut automatically.

2015 BMW 428i Gran Coupe RWD

5.0

The biggest disappointment with my 428i Grand coupe is that I got the M-tech package and it did not come with a backup camera which I found ridiculous since the basic package and many less expensive cars come stocked up for no additional charge!

ONLY THING I WOULD SUGGEST THAT THE MANUFACTURER LOOK INTO FOR FUTURE MODELS IS MAYBE ADDING THE LOCK AND UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE DOOR .
