Have you had any more thoughts on this @wolf1989
There is not a lot of difference between the 318i 27.5 mpg and 325i 28.8 mpg fuel economy - these figures were plucked from real world experiences (much lower than manufacturer claims but not that different from each other.)
For most people I reckon the difference in having a very boring economical car and a fun high performance car is just $600 over the year.
Any updates, or have you found some more options?
There are a few differences between the engines but I've written an in depth guide to them here.
