If they can afford the E90, I'd go that route (just to be clear they are not all AWD). An `06 330i can be had for a bargain these days, though I would still want one with the sport/premium packages. Otherwise, the E46 will suit Mom (and you) better than the E36 IMO. The ZHP's (M3 look) are pretty cool, and give you the 6spd, vs. 5spd in the "normal" manual E46's. You also get a better final drive ratio, 18" wheels, and better (sport+?) suspension if I recall.
