I could go and buy an M3 tomorrow - but I'd rather save the money and keep it for a rainy day. Some people have reasons..some have circumstances. A 318 or a M3 - we should appreciate what we have.
Glad you really like your 330d !!! - but for any lover of cars then going from a twin turbo straight six to a diesel is a downgrade. Youre right about enjoying what we own - the 330d is a great car and very economical, enjoy it.
