The 320I is more than sufficient enough. Handles well, decent power, efficienct, relatively low cost maintainece( provided you find a good one)If you want the oomph each time and have a motto like no replacement for displacement, you will be dissapointed as your goal was to set at high CC cars. better save up the bullet and bite it once and jump straight into the 330i circa 150k. If cant stretch that budget, Late 04 E46 are equally competent and they do drive very different from the E90, Much more raw and " BMW" like. 330i can get around 80k and 325 to 110k depneds on spec. Mind you, last batch cars always have full options. ultimately is what you need and what you desire. no right or wrong, Like BMW vs Mercedes, just personal preference If daily beater, a E90 320I will fit my bills nicely I am planning to do some nip and tuck to the old girl soon....</blockquote>
