If you are ok with 4 door, you can get a really nice 2006 330i (sports, ca, etc) for like 30g. If you find a late 2006 one, you will still have warranty for another year or so. You can save some money on service.

That's a wide range for 20~40g.
But you will get more performance and less trouble for the G than the 325ci.
You will properly find a G37 for 40g by Sep.

^^^^ That's what i am thinking 
06 Model for G35
05 Model for 325ci
What would look better? White on Black or Black on Black for both cars? http://www.askmen.com/cars/car_vs_car/3_car_vs_car.html

thous are my old down side's of the car
but fi power it what you are after get it bigger brother 330ci same car just bigger motor 3liter instead of the 2.5
and 227 hp if remmber right in 02 | You can turn off the stability control completely, just hold down the DSC button for longer than 5 seconds and two lights on the dash will light up as opposed to just one.

the 04 05 325ci is facelifted and looks like this   http://listings.boostmotorgroup.com/...0&RowNumber=37
The one posted by CharlieH is a 06 I believe, and was the year that it had the M package
The HP difference is quite a lot. but if you care about the name, get the bmw.
don't really mind the name, get the g35c, it would be a more fun car to drive

06 6MT is listed as 298hp and 07 is listed as 292hp.
The lower listed hp on the 07 is because the new hp rating standard.
Nothing is different.
And all the 03~07 5AT, 03~04 6MT have the same 287hp.
05~07 6MT got higher redline which called rev-up engine.
The rev-up has some minor difference than non-revup.

by the time september hits, and your budget is still $20-40G you can get some decently nicer cars then a g35 or 325. try a 335i by the time, it should be pretty cheap. you can even get m3's for your price range.
