A few days ago, a friend actually had someone at BMW AG tell him the
328i wasn't worth the extra money. Now, I wouldn't want anyone to
spend more money on a car than he needs to, but if someone feels he
just has to wait to get a 328i rather than a 323i, that's also fine by
me. That is one more touring for the rest of us. :)
