I couldn't find a CPO 328i coupe with sport package within 100 mile radius at the time I was looking. Didn't really need the xi but after driving 100 miles/day in 2 horrible winters in the 330i (which was terrible in the snow) I thought the xi couldn't hurt. And after owning a pre-LCI sedan I didn't want to own another one. This car is my daily driver so I'm not hung up on hp #s - I'm happy with 230 hp for the driving I do. Considering I wrapped the 330i around a telephone pole I thought a downgrade in power was a good thing for me.
