The new 3 is a great car to drive. Actually not having the 330i is not so bad because as far as I have heard the only difference between the 325i and the 330 is the engine software.

Nope Dippy, they are two completely different engines.

The 2.5 is a 2497cc straight-six engine putting out 218 bhp & 270 Nm of Torque whereas the 3.0 is a 2996cc straight-six engine putting out 272 bhp & 320Nm of Torque.
