I got both e39 525i and e46 325i..in terms of handling and comfort and cabbin space, the e39 is way better than the e46..th 46 is fun for city driving though with the light steering for easy manoeuvre..btw, I got the 46 year 2002 excellent condition for 90k only!

I Total agree with this statement., after driving 318 and 325., BMW Kaki always go for 6 potter, it is the BMW legend M power engine come from mah..... if driving 4 potter u get Potong easily by Honda CIvic or other Japs car lah,...hehehe....no fun lah...

aiya..don't undermine S14 lo...its 4 cylinder what..

S14 is from ///M division & different league. Normal 4 pots can be fun oso especially IS version provided it comes wt manual stick:top:

go for E46 so one less buyer going after e39....hahahahha
i have driven 325Ci (e46) and recently i have test drove e39....noise, comfort and looks goes to e39, quicker launch i would rate e46 is a little better (now again i am comparing a M54 vs M52 but both 2.5 liter)

after reading lots of posts here and weeks of thinking, maintenance wise i would say no difference....driving these baby would mean you need to be mentally and financially prepared the up keeping cost.....its just like asking your wife to do the house work nowadays cost more than your maid......lol
