Sorry but I must disagree. I owned a 328Ci (e46 which is the body model) and it was one of the most enjoyable and practicle cars that I ever owned. It was a blast to drive, held 4 adults, and could carry stuff I bought at home depot back home. I replaced it with an Audi A6 because we needed a larger 4 door (wife's orders). To this day I am sorry I didn't go with a 5 series BMW.

@Rob,

I don't think we disagree at all, at least from what you've written. As I said, they are great Cars, cannot fault their performance, reliability etc., in the least. What I am saying is that they are devoid of eliciting any kind of Visceral Response from the Driver. Perhaps it is because they are so predictable, I don't know...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Jeez, don't give up on the Box. Go for it. And offer him a couple thousand extra if the price is too cheap.
We need to keep those prices up!.
