Question Should I upgrade?!

Currently I have 1995 318ti, Was looking around my area and found 2 beauties for sale and with some really good price.

A 1998 318ti sport version, and a 1997 328is.

Both of them are in accumulate condition and around the same mileage around 170k kms, I'm torn between the 2.

Any Suggestions? Pros ad Cons of a ti and is ?!

Pros... The Ti is unique, plus the sport model gives you a bump up in appearance.

Cons... The 328is is not unique. No one will notice you.

The 318ti will be more fun to drive too.

I've got a 325ci thats a bit quicker than, and is worth more than twice the ti but it blends in with everyday traffic (as well as a bright red E46 can) I'd take the ti over it any day of the week no matter what, nothing has the character of a ti, especially a manual sport, probably one of the most fun cars to drive period.

The ti sport, well maintained and well shod handles as well as an e-36 M-3, minus the horsepower and higher insurance premiums. If you decide not the get the ti, PM me; I'd like to take a look at it. John
