I suppose they are, seeing as the 325i is now only available in Sports trim. I took the Driver Training course a couple years back, and BMW was using the 325i (pre-LCI, non-Sports). Right now it seems that BMW has a nice differenciation for the mid-range 3er: those who go for comfort/luxury - they have the 323i; while those want sporty - they have the 325i Sports. It figures that those who want sporty, would prefer a more powerful engine (hence the more powerful tuning of the 325i vs the 323i), sportier handling (the M-Sport suspension), and generally sportier trim (the silvery/aluminum & black trim in the 325i Sports vs the wood trim in the 323i).I wouldn't say there isn't a market for this car. Have seen quite a number around town, I know of at least one OM here who has one (although with all the stuff he is doing to his car, maybe he should have gotten a 325i Sports instead, hehe!)</blockquote>
