The 2013-2015 BMW 335i Gran Turismo is a larger, more comfortable variant of the 3-Series, often described as a "divisive" drive. While it offers significantly increased rear passenger and cargo space, its higher center of gravity and extra weight compared to the sedan/wagon temper its agility, disappointing some enthusiasts. Reviewers note it drives well and offers functionality, handling like a car with sharper responses, making it a well-suited choice for a young family seeking a premium, spacious vehicle that still offers sporty dynamics and all-wheel drive, albeit at a premium price.
The BMW 335i GT has an average annual maintenance cost of $1,143, with reliability concerns including faulty high-pressure fuel pumps, engine rattle, and various oil leaks (OFHG, VCG, oil pan). Full coverage insurance averages around $2,074 annually.
