I'd have to disagree the Bimmer was a wonderful car to drive it handled great. It was never, wow! it was always this is what a car should feel like, period. I like the 325i Much better then the IS300 when we test drove them back to back. You could find a gripe with every other car, but not the bimmer.
Had we not purchased the CPO TSX, we would have looked at CPO 325i Sedan; no question, it was the only car I felt was worth owning besides the TSX. The bimmer had no shortcomings save for price IMO.
