I test drove a..

330ci yesterday... Such a SEXY car! It's a 2004, 66k miles, $25,995. PS--I can't afford it.

It was at a tiny little dealership that stocks mostly high-end used cars. There was a 325i and the 330, and it only takes common sense to say that I wanted to drive the coupe.

So I asked if I could test drive it, the guy said "Let me go put some gas in it for you"... So he got back, handed me the key, and basically pushed us off the lot. I asked if he needed to see my license or anything and he just said "Nah!"

We took OFF Took it on the bypass and was able to get it up to speed and get a feel for the handling. I ummm.. got it up to 100 in a 65, bad bad me, I know. Like Numark told me one time, he drives his 330 like he stole it most of the time, and that's what I was doing with this one!

Anyway.. here's a pic(taken with my phone, but it's a good shot)

I still want the 328, let's put it that way. I'm trying not to stress about anything(any car) right now.

The 330 gave me such an adrenaline rush! I was shaking I was so exicted and into that car

heh nice.

The E46 is a sexy beast, especially those 330's. M54 do you see one for yourself anytime in the near future?

I know how you feel. I saw a '06 330ci with every package you can think but I couldn't see myself with a $621 monthly for 5 years. I also couldn't see myself letting go of my baby. Hope you find something good and affordable that you like.

Nu, The 330 onlly had 9400 on the odometer and they were asking $35.9K for it but would let it go for $33.5k. Bluebook was at $36.9k. The $621 was before the bank added the interest. That is why I didn't get it. I also want to get a house soon and that would have really hit me hard, and that is why I'm keeping my E30 . Wouldn't change it for nothing now.

And I forgot, it didn't come with the "performance Coffee maker" in the center console
