Good Points
one thing i was really surprised with was fuel consumption on the m-way with cruise control on youre looking at 40 plus mpg at 70 mph but it depends how you drive it, the leather interior is the best i have ever had and the multi function steering wheel is very good.
people said that i would regret buying the car once i get the service bill but there are loads of independent bmw specialists like bm tech manchester, top work cheap prices and you get bmw specialists stamp in youre service book.
Bad Points
the only down side to mine is the stereo, allthough it is good i feel it should be a little more bassy, but i plan on upgrading to a dvd head unit anyway. also the newer shape is a little bit femenin for me, the e46 shape is the best as far as im concerned.
General Comments
the BMW 325 ci makes me feell special whilst driving it, its a car you fantasize about driving as a child so to be driving it now i feel very proud. i never drive it hard i just cruise because it feels disrespestfull to kill such a brilliant car and engine, but having said that it can shift when you want it to and it gives you a great sense of power to know you can take out the boy racer in the lane next to you with his music pumping and exhaust sounding so loud its setting car alarms off, i guarantee that the bmw 325ci that sets off at a leisurelly pace with the roof down will turn heads for the right reasons and you will frequently enjoy nods of appreciation from other bmw owners and the public at large. if youre umming and arring about the money believe me once you get behind the wheell its worth every penny.
