Also I want a more economical car, and driven in commute mode - I am sure that I can get significantly better milage than I would in a 335i. Aslo the 328i seems to steer a bit better, slightly more nimble.
Finally I think that some people like to get the best (335i) - in everything that they do! and others - myself included, like to get the best value in everything that they do.
[Otherlike to just buy the cheapest in everything they do - but I doubt they are on this forum]

Well said!
