1999 BMW 3 Series Sedan 328i 4dr Sedan
The E46 BMW is the total package.
 The 3 Series is the best buy in sports sedan market segment.  I have absolutely enjoyed owning it.  The handling and stability going down the road is tremendous.  I have driven about everything else that is listed as competition, but nothing comes close. Happily there are numerous aftermarket accessories and parts suppliers that provide an alternative to the high priced dealer.
