Miles Overview
This is the E36-generation 3 Series, BMW's compact sedan that defined the sports sedan segment in the 1990s. The steering is direct and the chassis is well-balanced, making it a genuinely fun car to hustle down a back road. The cabin is driver-focused with clear gauges and solid build quality, though rear seat space is tight for adults. Reliability is good for its age if the cooling system and suspension bushings have been maintained. Stepping up from the 318i or 318ti gets you the smooth 2.8L inline-six, which makes this the quickest 3 Series you could buy new that year. The 2.8L I6 makes 190 horsepower and pairs with a five-speed automatic in this convertible, giving it relaxed highway cruising but a heavier feel than the manual coupe. As a convertible, the 328i adds structural bracing that stiffens the chassis, but you'll still feel more cowl shake than in the sedan.
