Desparate.  Naw, smiling more like it....
And the 328 has optional HID lighting, just a slap in the face to match the
5speed automatic trans in the bread and butter 323 and 328.

Mag articles are written as written.  No problem.  Since we don't have access
to the 3 series here yet, we may need to wait a minute before we totally
accept your quotes Dave.  "Europe being different" and all.  Also so
documented here by Autoweek.

Subpar is that, we could blame the tires.  Or we could look at how weight
distribution affect braking and weight transfer, braking accelerating and
turning.  500# is a lot of extra balast sir. 

You must be really bored.  Enjoy your vaca dude.
