Carl here.Newbie here but been lurking around for months.I just booked my 320d M Sport last week and loan has just been approved.There wasn't stock for the Estoril Blue II color so I had to wait a few weeks longer for it to be built from the plant.Had a test drive on 316i, 320i Sport Edition and 320d M Sport. Originally I was just eyeing at 316i. Cause of its price value and what I can afford. Coming from Honda Civic FD2 (8 years of ownership), the 316i was superb. I almost booked on the spot with a special order to replace the steering with the M performance Alcantara sports steering but then I thought, why not test drive some other lines since I'm here at the showroom anyway.So..I tried the 320i Sports Edition, better performance and better equipment/interiors etc. But wasn't really impressed as it looks almost identical to 316i except for the steering wheel. Then the 320d M sport. My god it's totally different from 316i and 320i Sports Edition. The moment I grab the M Sport steering, my heart says, there is no other choices. And the torque I felt the moment I step on the throttle. The engine noise didn't bother me one bit.So..I booked 320d even though the commitment will be bigger than I have expected. Now the long wait.</blockquote>
