Oh really? I didn't think the 2004 3's were THAT different. Maybe
there's some hope for the 3's.

Very true. I was actually looking at a 2003 325i and it was $3k less
than what I'm seeing now for 2004 model because you can get it at
invoice price (if there is any left that is). I just thought I'd look
into the 2004 since it's got the new adaptive lights, LED backlights
and facelift. In all practicality, those minor changes are not worth
the extra $3k, but it still seems cool to have. Who knows what we'll
have in store for 2005 when Bangle gets ahold of it. This might be the
last of the "normal-looking" 3 series for those that like the E46
look. Well, that's what I read anyway.

Actually, what people don't realize is that Chris Bangle is responsible for
both the E46 and the E52, otherwise known as the *Z8*. Personally, I
wouldn't call either of those two cars ugly.....

He was hired way back in the 90s and may be completely responsible for the E46
body. There is hope. He was just drunk* when he designed the 7.;-)

Right and the Z4 too and I think it looks pretty good.

Really? Well, I like both the E46 and E52... just not the new 7's...
not sure about the new 5's either since I haven't seen it in person.
The 7 is getting a bit of a facelift.
