Yes, another 318ti maybe calling. It's just finding one. too many automatics. Going to see a good looking silver Mtech in another town this weekend.

The larger wagons(325xi, x3, and outback) are to be my main vehicle as the TI would just be a second commuter, fun car.

The 2005-2009 may not handle like a bmw, but it is surprising sporty and fast. Plus some ground clearance to handle non paved gravel roads. I'm just not sure if I am able to tackle most mechanical on it. I do not like taking my cars to mechanics. Want to take care of everything myself. I think for that reason I am ruling out an X3. E46 might still be ok as the more I read the more it sounds like most things I should be handled.
