[QUOTE="koryong, post: 60828, member: 70"] It's hard to imagine wanting more than a 328. Though I don't own one, I've driven it and the 6-pot is indeed an absolutely "lustful" engine ... :D But one cheap & easy upgrade especially for early saloons, is to fit [b]ventilated [/b][b]rear[/b] disc brakes. Most 328's have solid rear discs and only the late model saloons ('98 & '99) and all cabrios have vented ones. I did this on my little 318 :blush: and only cost about RM400. The piston is larger by 6mm diametre (i think), thus improving the braking ability and obviously the vents improves cooling under hard braking. [/QUOTE]
