E36 323i ms coupe or e46 330i or 330ci

Recommended Posts

I had a e46 328ci years ago, then most recently the e36 in my signature.

Been looking for a 330ci 2000-2003 pre fl, msport, suede seats, sunroof, multifunction, and most importantly not silver! But haven't found anything good yet.

Came across a tidy e36 323i coupe and very tempted to get that instead.

I know it's my personal choice at the end but what's everyone's thoughts?

Wait it out for a nice E46 or go with the e36?

Edit: currently no car as my temporary 318ti had gearbox issues. (will look at selling this as is if anyone interested)

Did they make them in other colours?!

Surely.....

I don't mind leather instead of suede, no buttons on steering wheel, no sunroof okay too... But seriously no msport ones in black or grey, all silver :(

haha! You don't see many that aren't silver, to be sure. They look good in blue and red particularly - if you can find one!

This looks a good deal on paper - http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/...n-534169506.htm - if you can live with white.

Or blue - http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/...n-533291067.htm

Or red with low kms - http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/...n-526657195.htm

Personally I prefer the 330i as I like bigger cars (plus I've got a littlun in a baby seat!) but most of them on TM are silver!

Well the E46 is a nice evolution of the E36, being a bit more modern etc, but I feel they gained a bit too much weight and loose a bit of the light weight edge the E36 have.

Ultimately it depends how much you want to spend.

The white is nice, good price as well but I don't like facelift on coupes. But I do like FL on sedans. Picky, I know.

Blue one is cheap for what it is but really looking for msport, same for the red one. I wouldn't spend more than $15k on a e46 unless it was an m3!!

I've looked at every single bmw on Trademe between 2000-2004, Sedans and coupes, I saved about 5 on watch list. Nothing amazing though.

Really leaning to the e36 at this stage.
