  For the right price it is a great car - 1992 BMW 3-Series
  By ChrisG1979 - October 2 - 2:00 am

  When I found this car, I had been looking for two months. I paid the guy 4000 cash and he was asking 5000. To date I have to put about a 1000 into it, and probly will need to put another 500 soon. I have had a few problem with the car, one of which is that it has burned up 2 cat. converters, which gets expensive. If I was not able to do the repairs myself, I would not still have this car. I think it is a great car for the price and is so much fun to drive. I plan to buy BMWs for the for seealbe furtrue. These are great cars.

  Fun value - 1992 BMW 3-Series
  By commuter123 - July 19 - 2:00 am

  I have had this car for over 4 yrs now, originally purchased as a second vehicle for local driving, mix highway and city. My experience has been overall very positive - the car can be a lot of fun to drive, despite the higher mileage it performs well, sticks to the road and handles like a sports car. Since 92 was the first year of the new BMW body design, the car actually looks like a much later model. With routine maintenance I had no major repairs and the car has been very reliable. All this for just over $10k as initial investment.

  Perfect sports sedan - 1992 BMW 3-Series
  By Skimmer - July 9 - 2:00 am

  Was, remains the first quintessential sports sedan. The unassailable benchmark. Superb in every performance and handling respect, except high speed sweepers. Lithe, tossable, and possible to drift & steer with a throttle, though its glue-like grip makes it necessary to speed to break away. Its flaws: a cheap looking interior much improved in later model years, and many flawed materials. Problems I have had in the first five years included a broken radiator tube a leaky gas tank a broken rear spring a broken window lift two leaky oil pan gaskets inability to start due to plug fouling and, twice, loud exhaust due to total loss of muffler baffles.

  Not quite what I though it would be - 1992 BMW 3-Series
  By chanandaler bong - June 12 - 2:00 am

  Great commuter...not quite the performance I thought it would be, really not much quicker than my old vw jetta, except that it handles the corners much much better. Fun on the off and on ramps!!!

  Best Car on the Planet - 1992 BMW 3-Series
  By BMWJunkie - February 11 - 2:00 am

  I love this car and always will. Cost for parts is average just need to know where to get the parts from. Internet filled with parts suppliers, both OEM and Aftermarket. Handled on rails even before changing to autocross suspension. Family loves the car wife loves it the most and has given up on her Eclipse. Engine is a powerhouse waiting to be unleashed. The things that people are complaining about are "wear items" and have to be replaced on any car. It is called MAINTENANCE people. Get over it. Those parts arent supposed to last forever. If you cant afford the maintenance dont buy the car. The M50 is the best engine that BMW came up with.

  My $2000 per year wallet drainer - 1992 BMW 3-Series
  By albuquerque bimmer - January 8 - 2:00 am

  I love the way the car looks, performs, and drives, however failing electrical system, and computer system is very disappointing. Windows have failed 4 times. Sandia BMW wants $1100 to fix computer/sensor. Labor charge ($90) per hour plus outrageous part costs make this car difficult to own. I dont intend to buy another.

  Good car...some minor problems - 1992 BMW 3-Series
  By rojo - December 24 - 2:00 am

  Really fun car to drive...I bought it for my son and I love driving it also..I have a new audi a4 and the BMW still rides as well. Have had all the typical 92 bmw problems. water pump, rear shocks, thermostat, hoses...but, overall a great car...I do wish the labor was cheaper...car mechanics see BMW and charge you acordingly...they see ya coming...
