What a mistake, when the 330 was back, I sit in it and put the seat all the way back. See sees the front seat almost touching the back seat and walks. Said no room in the back seat for her grandkids?

Dealer laughs and sez: Benz makes an AWD.......Now she's looking at Lexus AWD............

How can I talk her into the 330? Do those of you that have them have opinions on the back seat?

My DD is a 2001 E46 330i sedan. 2 kid seats in the back and plent of room. Im 5' 10". Great car! Sport, premium, Xenon and with snow tires it is awesome. I agree that it is very user friendly. This is also my 20th BMW. Many e36's (mostly M3 with one full racecar) and 2 other e46's. I may be a bit biased though. My opinion, the E36's are great but they are starting to get too old for me. Plus the interiors suck IMHO. I like the E46 much better.
