the 330ci is a damn sweet car. if i were you id consider the 330xi cause its the fastest non m-series bmx you can get. they can be expesive to maintain though. my dad has had a 323i and that thing was slow as ----, a 528i and that thing was just nice to drive in and now we have an x5 and that ---- is pimp. its faster than all the other ones weve had and it looks amazing and rides amaizng.

my dad's 04 duramax hauls some *****, I was driving it last night in the rain, I floored it and the ------- tired broke loose and the back end started sea-sawing from one side to the next, that ---- was off the chain. plus it's turbo, which one of these bmws is turbo? plus it's functional, when's the last time a bmw hauled a ton of bricks in the back?

my aunts fiance has a 330ci and its not that fast (its quick... cant be faster than a low 15) but its the automatic/tiptronic (hate it) but the car is so GD quiet even with the top down and it handles decent... If i had the money id get somthing else but otherwise it is a very nice car

i say get it. same reason i got an a4 1.8T. yea u can build a civic to be faster, but its not the same. i say if u can afford it, go for it. i miss my crx, but i have no regrets about the audi i got

It is slower then a normal 330ci, it has 4 doors and all wheel drive (how could that equate to faster?)

the "fast" one is the 330i ZHP (10 extra HP) except it only comes in steptronic and up until recently only came w/ 4 doors also.

330ci sport is the best 3 series they make, the M3 is lame, it is already tapped out for power. supercharged 330's walk on M3's all day long, and if you want to supercharge an M3, you either have the option of running like 4psi for $10,000 or lowering the ungodly high compression and boosting more (for $30,000) GL with either of those.

Same car, different motor. only sport package and non sport package (suspension wise)


BTW just a heads up, ATP is coming out w/ a turbo setup for non M 3 series in the very near future, I'll post pics/vid when we get it on My buddiy's 330.

"the" 330ci

There you go, I didn't know they made a 330 non sport, the ones I was looking at were all sports.


And that beamer your bud gots there is pretty badass, except I really don't like the front bumper, looks too much like an eclipse front and almost SUVish. I'd rather have an M front.

thats prety sexy, im diggin the fenders.

m front is played out, there are only 3 cars in america with this body kit, only 2 of them have all 6 pieces

AgentMurdoc

may be played out, but you can't beat a classic look. No matter what the M front is fockin' sexy. That may be a rare kit, but I'm still not feelin' the front
