Like I said, it just seems to be my financial situation that's leading to these discussions. But with that aside, a $48,000 328 just doesn't make sense to me considering I remember getting 325's for between $31,000 and $37,000, not too many years ago. Even my first e90 325 was only $38,000.
Other thing to consider is inflation. Based on the Consumer Price Index increases, if you bought a 325 for 35k in 1998, that would be approximately $49,500 in today's dollars.

I do agree that the cost is getting way up there though.
