If you are serious about this you have already test-driven them both - which did you like better?

The 328i is no longer produced - it is now the 330i.

For me, I would either get the BMW or wait until the 2002 Lexuses come out to see how the 6-speed is - I hate automatic transmissions. Also the Lexus interior seems really gimmicky and I suspect it will not age well.

I think if I were shopping for a car in this range, the BMW (either a 325 or 330) would be my no-brainer choice. I was a bit poorer last time I bought a car (a few months ago), and got a Maxima SE instead.

if you could get the IS for a non-markup price, go for it! get a silver no matter what you choose

bmw. lexus sucks, i hate the is300.

i prefer the IS 300. Its more aggresive, and its engine is a close cousin with the supra's engine. That means twin turboes baby!!! vroooooooom

Oh god, i have to clean my pants now...

the is300's are dead sexy and really catch your eye on the road

of course, they're smaller than the bmw's (at least IMO)

plus, everyone and their uncle drives a 330....

but then again, the 330 is a GREAT car

so if you can make sense of any of this , let me know!

<< the lex is sexy...mmm...silver...looks good with the altezza's

waiting for the &quot;rice h8trs&quot; >>

can it be rice if everyone wants to be like it? thats how the term &quot;altezza&quot; got started, the japanese IS300 is the called the Altezza. Its a turbo 4cyl, and its quite as heck

Those are my two choices.
