Head gasket leaks on the passenger side.
Exhaust leaks at the inlet of the rear muffler on the 325e.
Doesn't bother me but many audio enthusiasts complain about not being able to hear the front speakers.
A better glovebox latch.
Turn signal switches that don't automatically switch to high beams.

There are no major flaws though. Most of the minor flaws were taken care of with updated parts.

As for the body...

Cracking of the body behind the passenger strut tower. (M3 in particular)
