If you upgrade the 325i to meet the options standard on the 330i, the difference is a couple thousand. If you get extras like navigation, sports, etc. then the 325i can start becoming more pricey than a base 330i.
The best bargains are a base 325i with xenons or a base 330i. The 325i with xenons can be had for about 33k pre tax and 35k out the door. That puts it pretty damn close to an Acura TL. Quote:

Price difference is exactly 3g.
again, 325/330 arguement is so damn stupid and worthless. Reading this thread, AGAIN, 325 owners started the same stuff again. can we stop? please? Yes, ward and e90-4life. you two.

No, it's not enough horsepower. Don't settle for anything less than 450 HP. The E90 is an old lady car. You can do better. Get the new Dodge Challenger with the Hemi.

neither the 325 or 330 is fast I pointed out the 325 runs out of breath while the 330 keeps pulling at higher RPMS, the 330 is faster. I'm not sure what you are looking for me to say. When comparing the 2 don't you think people should see the difference? (from my test driving the main difference was at higher RPM's while the difference between the cars was smaller at lower RPM's) also the price difference is 2700 bucks (maybe you're just rounding to get 3000) |

I don't know, people just get touchy on this one
just like RWD AWD, stick vs auto can't we all just get along (I was actually pretty impressed how civil this thread was so far!) |

I used to drive a MB C320 with the same HP but having what i have now i am very pleased with it. Mine's a 325i M/T and it feels really great with power and handling. In my opinion i think you should go for it then maybe Dinan it later. Think twice before your decision.

Where is the popcorn smiley when you need it?
Get what you want don't let the 325 vs 330 war bug you. It's been going on for ages. |
