4dr Minivan, ext. 283-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Nice car, but front seats could be better. Close to a deal breaker.

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 BMW 3-Series
2012
Another surprising strength for the new BMW 3-Series. There's more room in back than in competing cars, and the seat is comfortably positioned and shaped.
