[QUOTE="B33mEr, post: 576171, member: 13609"] I would recommend 330, if possible go for M-Sport variant but it's pretty rare ... Effortless on the streets and on highways. Fuel consumption is pretty good even better on long journeys. 325 would be more balanced in terms of r/tax, power, maintenance cost and resale value. On 330's the disc and brake pads are more expensive. The cooling system on the E46 is the most important factor. If you purchased the car make sure the cooling system is in top shape. They can give way without notice especially the expansion tank. M54 engine is robust so much so that 100k km M54 engine is still considered young hehehe Allocate 10-12k for parts replacements and mods to make it a tip-top daily driver. [/QUOTE]
