That is true that 330i would have more advantage over 320i more hp more of everything that falls under the hood category. But it is about personal taste and choice as I have stated in my previous comment. There is no doubt that 330i is faster than 320i but the point here is that this specific vehicle in this thread is a geat story to some of us, whereas I think it does not have anything in common with your taste. Considering what you have said about it. Just me making some assumptions upon your opinion. No hard feelings. I respect your opinion.
