Just for curiosity's sake - 325i(ZPP, ZCW, ZSP, NAV) or 330i(ZPP, ZCW)

clutch09 · 05-04-2006, 07:40 PM

Hey Guys,
Just wondering which one you would choose between a 330i (ZPP, ZCW) or a 325i (ZPP, ZCW, ZSP, NAV).

325 Baller · 05-04-2006, 07:41 PM

ZCW? I personally love features and the power of the 325 is plenty for me, so id chose the 325.

ska///235i · 05-04-2006, 07:43 PM

I got a 325XI with Nav, zsp zpp, & other options
I'm not really into more HP so I choice the 325 with more options

Consider using the $2-$3k for a new set of kickarse rims

IMO

325

330i if it had NAV or ZSP

gscone · 05-04-2006, 08:09 PM

330 just for the engine.

Jch330 · 05-04-2006, 08:11 PM

i would get 330 zsp and forego PP or CW, just pick out the absolutely necessary items in those packages and the sport and you probably will be pretty close to the same price, just a thought

stressdoc · 05-04-2006, 08:17 PM

Must have Z S P ...

Why not 330 w/ZSP?

ward · 05-04-2006, 08:33 PM

ZSP a must!!

maybe ditch PP and get SP on the 330!

just4kickz · 05-04-2006, 08:40 PM

i dont get what the "z" stands for...

E90330iS · 05-04-2006, 09:42 PM

a fully loaded 325i is still incomparable to a bone stock 330i, to me at least.

a fully loaded BMW is better than a bone stock 330 every second you are in the car without the gas pedal floored. (98% of the time or more for most)

clutch09 · 05-04-2006, 11:09 PM

I agree

not when people look at the emblem on your trunk! so 97%

dencoop · 05-04-2006, 11:40 PM

So What does my emblem tell you....back up to 98%

This is my immediate reaction after looking at the "E90 3.0" emblem.

_ I knew I was going to get some of that....I was just trieng to state that anyone can change the emblem.....My friend just found out that a 335i is coming out and sked me if he can have my old "3" so that he can turn his badge into a 335i.....to each his/her own......

-In any case....SPORT PKG. is a must for BMW not Premium Pkg

How so? The performance is like nite and day.

Marven · 05-05-2006, 07:45 AM

to me if you are going to get all those options with the 325, getting the 330 with a few options is better as it already comes with some goodies. If you are leasing the MF is better on the 330.

Josh49 · 05-05-2006, 08:09 AM

Depends what you want the car far. If you're going to the track, autocrossing, etc, the 40 hp is probably more important. If its going to be an everyday driver, having navigation, sport package, is way better. Now since I have navigation I would never get a car without it, it is way too incredible (for me).

tl_boy · 05-05-2006, 08:20 AM

Sport package with navi 325, thats an easy decision. I wish I got sport package in retrospect, but maybe with my lowering springs i fared better anyway (in terms of handling). Make sure to get the xenons in the 325 too, they are not standard.

ALPINE6SPD · 05-05-2006, 08:39 AM

dont forget the 330 comes with xenon and premium sound also. Ditch the Premium pack get sport pack and then just get the power seat option or the Blueetooth with BMW Assist.
