I should be able to get one for around 24k. I just don't know how it would handle winter.

Default Well I preffer RWD second to Quattro... BUT

SUcks in the snow, absolutely sucks. I have owned a number of rear wheel drive vehicles and after owning 4WD or AWD its like night and day..

RWD car just suck in the snow, and I know the Bimmer is no exception.

Default Opinions:

1. It doesn't look good, at all.
2. 323 owners are typically people that bought BMW for the name, not the car
3. Big Mistake if you get any snow....so they are gutless in the summer, garaged in the winter cause you won't go anywhere.

4. I'd rather own a Camaro, and have more admiration for Camaro owners then 323 owners.
