Congrats!

I know it's not really fast, per se, but does it *feel* fast?

EDIT: What, no floor mats?

Very nice. And the waffling is a great excuse to test-drive all kinds of cars. :smile:

How badly did you get killed by the 330i at trade-in/sale?

Yeah, but your case is about as extreme as it gets. You bought high (if I'm remembering right because you bought one of the early ZHP's), and sold low (today's market sucks and you traded in).

It's somewhat unfair to blame BMW. If you had bought an Audi or a VW, you would have gottnen screwed even worse. Buying a car for one year and the selling it is a expensive.
