2014 BMW 320i F30: Regular Car Reviews

I wonder how many people actually think like that... it's like the guys who say "I don't signal cuz I don't want you to know where I'm going! Mind your own fucking business and stop following me!" I keep hoping they're being sarcastic, because I don't give a damn where their final destination is. I just want to know if they're planning on moving into my lane in the next 5 seconds

[@travisp11]

Back in 1994 I bought a used 83' 320i. It was my first car and I absolutely loved it. Wasn't too powerful but manual transmission and RWD made it a joy to drive. Every paycheck that I earned in high school went towards paying back my parents and we kept it until 2004 when it was T-Boned in the Walmart parking lot with my mom behind the wheel (not her fault). It was a low speed accident but it totaled the car. By that point it had around 150K on the odometer but still would have had more life left in it.

[@hobbitilius]

That photostory was the best thing RCR has ever done.

[@antholito]

Pickup drivers are BY FAR the most irritating on the road, particularly here in Michigan

[@grapheist612]

That’s true everywhere in the U.S.. I think the problem is that most people suck at driving, but when your vehicle is so big it barely fits in the damn lane, in the parking lot, in its parking space, every error is magnified for other drivers. That’s not helped by the arrogant, self-centered, and incorrect belief that your vehicle’s size will somehow protect you from your own mistakes so you don’t need to be careful or respectful of others.

[@Xaevryn]

Fucking right?! if they're behind you they tailgate. If they're ahead of you they go slow and speed up when you go to pass. you can be the only car for miles and they'll wait until you're close enough to pull out so you have to hit the goddamn brakes.

[@artistwithouttalent]

Do we notice it more because it stands out more or because of the preconceived notions we have involving BMW drivers? Also, sidebar, speaking as someone whose parents own a 3-Series, I will say that your commentary on their attitude is bang on. Obnoxiously overprotective. Also also, for anyone who has never driven a 3-Series, they aren't necessarily being road douches intentionally: the turn signals and accelerator pedals are really weird and make it easy to be an ass when you aren't trying to be. The accelerator works like a switch (and I don't just mean it's touchy) making it easy to accidentally accelerate way more than you were expecting, and the turn signals are designed in a way that makes it easy to activate the "flash-to-pass" when you're trying to use the normal turn signal.

[@MLProductions.1]

artistwithouttalent most luxury car acclerators I've drove have the click at the end that put it in full throttle. My Lexus my beamer and my Mercedes had that. I drive a navigator and it doesn't but it's also a 6500lb Suv that's slow as shit lmao

Sorry to be a douche, but torque is from 1250-4500rpm And the 320i has never been a 3l 6pot, it was a 2.0 N/A 4 banger in Europe in the E90. Largest 320i engine has been the 2.2 6 pot in the e46 320i which only had around 170hp. I'll leave now

[@tripleoo0]

He's comparing the entry-level F30 320i with the entry-level E92 328i, the naturally aspirated version of the 335i he reviewed about a year ago.

[@jimmyb1460]

TK481 Exactly...He shouldn't be doing that. The US 328i E90 was equivalent to the 330i in Europe. It's only less powerful because they introduced a lower output model.

[@PerpetuaAutomobilia]

I guess he mixed up with 325i E9x facelift models. In euro spec (dunno what u guys in the US got) it was a 3.0l R6 with 218hp. Nearly same engine as 330i (272 hp) E9x 320i was 2.0l R4 with 170hp.

Okay, real talk now, German guy here ... Idk why you Americans always make a big deal out of these, here they are literally at every corner and they aren´t just driven by the group of people you just mentioned. They were and still are used as company cars or for sales reps, as police vehicles sometimes and I kid you not, lots of these drive around as station wagons here and belong to families. People put skiers or bicycles on the roof and travel with them. They are normal, reliable cars here like a Toyota Camry in the US or a Dodge Charger or a Crown Vic or sth. The cars that do still perpetuate the jerk driver image are the 5 series and up but also more and more Audis now ...

[@DrewLSsix]

It’s because that’s the market BMW has made for its self here, that’s how it tends to work when importing. You don’t make a ton of cash selling budget cars so selling each car as loaded as possible inflated the profit margin. The Japanese pulled something similar off after voluntarily capping their importation numbers, they had to make more $$$ per car and started pushing up market.

As a Semi Driver my experience has been, the fancier the car the worse the driver. No matter what vehicle a person drives they seem to become a more reckless asshat around Semis.

[@DarrenPersad]

I think it matters far more on the age of the driver. When I see most people my age driving nicer cars, they're far more showy and aggressive. The older demographics tend to drive like sane, normal people. Although I drive almost exclusively luxury, I try my absolute best to follow common sense and road laws to a T, because everyone else is happier that way. I make it a point to give large trucks, like yours, ample space, because physics is not your side, and I've seen what those things can do to tiny passenger cars.

[@BoringIntrovert1982]

Darren Persad For the most part you're right. It also depends on the location. For example there's more aggression exhibited towards semi drivers in larger population areas vs. rural areas. Although not a sign of aggression, rather ignorance is when people ride along side a semi for several miles. They fail to understand that when a tire blows it's A: Going to sound like a cannon shot. B: Throw heavy chunks of the tire and other debris in all directions. C: May result in loss of control especially if it's a steer tire.

Until you get to the limits of the grip, there are slight qualitative differences but nothing that compromises performance the way that the F30 3 series inspires no confidence behind the wheel to push it in any limited way.

One of my junior high(7th-8th grade) football coaches had the previous model base 3 series, even back then I could feel the aura coming off the guy. A man who really wanted to coach high school football(its a big deal in Texas) but ended up at a junior high. His ambitions didnt match his talent or experience, and his paycheck didnt match the sticker price of anything more than the entry model. He cared for that car like it was a child though it was by far the nicest vehicle any teacher/coach owned at my school. He wasnt the best coach I ever had, yet I could tell he was trying his best, working his way up the ladder. I hope by now he has climbed high enough for that 5 Series or even an M car.

You think this is underpowered? Try the e46 325i. Beats walking though.

[@the5threview455]

He says as passing generations they get weaker.

[@michaelramsey82]

For reasons I will never be able to explain to anyone, the "touch base" segment is, to me, one of the funniest segments of RCR ever made. There's just something magical about it.

I go to Art Center College of Design (Car design school where many BMW designers come from ✋🏼🤫🔫) that aside.... I have an instructor that has a third party research company. His consultancy found: 1. Mercedes owners generally have the most wealth and money 2. Audi owners are generally the most educated 3. 4. BMW owners are in the most debt Ohhh.... and the super wealthy as in billionaires....they don’t take their kids to schools in Cadillac Escalades....they all prefer GMC Yukons 🤫

ArtCenterMiata 🤫😂😂😂

[@Sayua-chan]

Out of curiosity what's no. 3 ?

[@Lortenerfrisk]

Funny because where i live (denmark), most audis are driven by people who live off welfare and crime

[@bandombeviews6035]

I think it's because bmws attract a younger demographic than a mercedes or an audi (kinda), thus they make less money and have to go into more debt.

[@Norbert.Gardonyi]

And what about the fact the bmws are the most expensive cars to keep over a 10 year period? And also that audi and mercedes are, too, in the top 10 most expensive cars to maintain over that 10 year period? 🤔

I got my 320 for 24 grand new. It had been the loaner at my local BMW dealer. For that price it can’t be beat. 50/50 weight distribution and rwd. It’s loads of fun to drive around town.

[@MylesHSG]

You can get this with a 1.5 litre 3 pot in some markets.

[@TehMasterSword]

God has forsaken us

[@commanchi7]

Same unit from the i8 & mini?

[@MylesHSG]

Mike Shipton correct.

[@iD4v1d]

MylesHSG Lmao, and I thought the 1.6 diesel we have in Europe was bad

[@MylesHSG]

iD4v1d at least the diesel has a bit of torque.

[@prescott231233]

My friends neighbor owns a 325i and he boasts about it going 180. I highly doubt your beemer does 180. He also said it had a v8, which it doesn’t. And he’s one of the most inconsiderate drivers I’ve ever driven with. It’s in the shop for more time than it’s out of it, and people always “unintentionally” run into it with their cars after parties. Hmm

[@BMan100]

OMG this was the best review I have seen so far, that stop motion section had me crying...oh Sega Saturn Controller...

[@mufinmakesmusic1210]

This has to be one of the best episodes, if not just for 4:20-5:00. Also for the ineresting take on the 'bmw driver'

[@marcscordato4385]

The classic 2002 is still one of my favorite cars. I prefer the Germanic boxy look from the 70’s and 80’s.

[@gregorytaylor862]

I was on a conference call and had the sudden urge to say “My urethra is yawning!!!” “We all gotta touch base!!” Thanks regular!

[@Local_Guy]

At the end with the roundabout parody. To be continued...

[@CMKhriscross]

The e30 wasn't the last 4 cylinder before the f30, the e36 came in a 318i or 318ti until around 98 in North America, too.

[@anajay78]

I'm seeing little "tom goes to the mayor" in this piece.

[@mac7Attack1]

I drove BMWs when I was younger, I did drive like an asshole. Once I got a truck, I became THAT asshole. If BMW made a pickup truck, the world would end.

[@bayareasolarpower]

Touching bases lmao

[@eperot]

I think it's funny to see Mr Regular's opinion of BMW softening with each review. E46 330 Ci - He hated the car. (And I offered him my ZHP with the right transmission as a chance to alter his perspective) E90 335i - He started to like BMW, minus the wonky turn signal (why did BMW change that anyway? Old was perfect) F30 320i - He liked it even more than the E90. Mr. Regular, you can still review my 330 ZHP whenever you want. Of the three just mentioned, it's by far the best overall driving experience.
