    2002/03 bmw 330xi or 2000/01 528i

    Looking at some new cars and I was just wondering if anyone had any reviews of either a 2002/03 330xi or a 2000/01 528i. Both are great automobiles, but right now im leaning towards the 528i.

    Either way you choose those are both excellent cars. If you are taller than 6' I'd think the 5 series would be better. If you are on the underside of 6' I think the 3 series is a better match, plus it's a little sportier and has a larger motor. Enjoy your new car. Mark

    It depeneds if you want more of a sporty car or more of a luxury... the 3 series looks more sporty than the 5.. Especially the 2 door which is the XI I think.. If you need the extra room I'd say choose the 5... If not go with the 3..

    330xi is a 4 door car but has all wheel drive, which might come in handy in wisconsin.

    If you go for a 5 then get the 530 vs the 528. a little more horse power and about the same price. I think the 530 came out in 2001. I had a 2000 323CI w/ sport package. It was so fun to drive. Took the turns like nothing else. Whatever you get, make sure you have the sport package. Premium package is good but many people just buy parts of it which is cool. I got into a new 4runner about 9months ago and I am trying to pay it off as fast as possible so I can land a 2001-2002 M3 convertible. Can't justify two car payments so holding off for now.
