325CI or 330CI

One of my friends is looking to buy either a new 325CI or a new 330CI. I say go with the 330CI since it has a bigger motor (that could be the muscle car in me :-D lol) and i think it has a better suspension. But what do you guys think? She's definatly planning on some engine mods. SO what's the best choice?

Id go with the 330Ci. You can get it with a 6 speed manual, and many companies make aftermarket parts for them. AA has supercharger kits for the 330 too.

If money isn't an issue, get the 330 without question.

The suspension is the same for both but the engine is worth it, not to mention the available 6-speed.

Ya i actually suguested to her about getting a used M3. I think that's her best choice. But you kno how stuburn woman are. She's insisting on getting a new one. I'll try n convince her to get the 330CI. She doesnt care about money so i guess that's her best bet. Thanks a lot :-D
