Hello GTO, nice to meet you. I have read up on many of your posts! This forum is awesome!

You are right on target. The E46 is the pinnacle of the 3 series and every BMW enthusiast knows that. Thats why I did not get the new E90 330i, and this E46 which I have outperforms the E90 in most ways.

Bangle is a good man in my opinion, he has done a lot of good things for BMW. He needs to make them some money and with the competition from Lexus/Acura etc, the E90 was his answer to that. My car was in the dealership for 2 weeks and they gave me an E90 330i sport package as a loaner car. It was pretty nice, and has a lot of new gadgets which are missing in the E46, like a push button start, little posher looking interior and other small stuff, and with 255hp, and even 6 speed in the automatic, it gets going. Its the ugly design which turns it away from most BMW enthusiasts.
