    Default Car Comparison

    Hey guys:

    Ive got some questions about some different BMW's, and i figured this was as good as any place to post em up. Im just starting to set out and look at cars, and I know about nothing when it comes to BMW's, so I would like to know the difference between the 325ci's and the 330ci's. I cant tell much of a difference . Criticism, comments, anything is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    The main difference is the engine size.



    And the cost....

    The 325 and 330 is a 2001+ E46
    The 323 and 328 is a 1999-2000 E46

    The 325 is a 2.5L, 330 3.0L, 328 2.8L, 323 2.3L.

    That should help you out.
    PS- buy my E46 coupe its for sale.

    The 323 has a detuned 2.5L (M52TuB25) with 168bhp. The same engine as the 325.

    Major differences between the 325Ci and the 330Ci are:

    184bhp vs. 225bhp (235bhp - 330Ci M)
    175 ft/lb vs. 214 ft/lb (222ft/lb - 330Ci M)
    7.6s 0-100km/h vs. 6.8s
    5 speed vs. 5 or 6 speed (also SMG option avail.)
