Tell me your thoughts on why sport seats are so much better?
Sports seats in my opinion are worlds more comfortable. Bolsters are adjustable as well.

The sport seats have bolsters, and the regular seats are flat as a pancake. So unless you weigh 300lbs+, the sport seats are better.

Sit in both, and test drive (and not a leisurely test drive where you make 4 rights and end up back in the dealership parking lot) and tell me you disagree.

Non-sport seats are a problem...

+1 on this--completely agree and to add..the sport seats look much better than the plain looking non-sport. I have Coral and get compliments on the seats--if they were just plain red seats I think most people would only refer to the color.

I love the red. I have a White 2014 328ix as an option with coral red interior. Its less expensive but has more miles and of course not as much POWER!

Your coming from an N54 335--going to be hard to downgrade in power and sound unless your ready. Yeah, I love the red too--if that is what you really like, maybe you wait and search for a 335 with the CR.

I kind of have to make the move now because the 328 I 'bought' last week but it had issues. I would like to unwind the deal completely and keep looking. the dealership is letting me look at other cars because my cosigner has not signed yet and after a day the 328 was misfiring.

Sports line will give you the sports suspension as well as the sports seats. If those two things don't matter to you then look at the options in each car. A BMW is really made by what options it has equipped

The drive(s) should pretty much make your decision. Have you looked at the service records of the cars to see any issues they had before now ?

#1 easy choice! Grey on black is so dull! Blue/brown gives off that luxury vibe, plus it's less common on the roads.

Overall I think #2 a better choice though. Comfort access would be nice though

Must be, because the link worked this afternoon. Looks like OP spent too much time soliciting the advice of strangers rather than taking action.

#1 it is, I guess....
