What Our Members Are Saying about the Brand Reputation of the BMW 2-Series

BMW 2-Series Brand Reputation: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2014 2dr Coupe turbocharged 320hp 3.0L I6
8-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 To some, this is important. BMW, however good their cars might be, conjures up images of lawyers, trophy wives, and young hotshots who inherited their father's estate. I think I can make a fairly accurate assumption that most customers buy BMWs for reasons other than their unrivaled driving dynamics. I know some, who would never be caught driving a BMW due to that very reason. Doesn't bother me much, and the M badge also adds an air of seriousness to the vehicle. see full BMW 2-Series review
