Well, in general you can bet that automatics will be easier to sell than manuals. That said, in terms of resale 'value' lets say that you spend $1,200 more purchasing the automatic. Five years later the difference between a used automatic and manual may only be $400. This means that you lost $800 on that option.

Same goes for the resale value of the 325i vs the 330i. I believe that the residual of the 325i currently is better than the 330i by only 1% on a 3 year lease.
