My opinion is that BMW makes fine cars that no longer have a sporting disposition at the top of their design requirements. I feel (as do others according to the World Wide Web) that this personality switch came after the e90 3 series.
Once again this is just my opinion based on my personal preferences.

I had an 02 328i and now have an 04 X3. Both manuals.
Parts can be spendy.
Labor can be spendy
Pretty much everything has some kind of 'how to' online at either one of the BMW forums or youtube. :nod
...but... I haven't found anything like the driving experience yet so go for it!
