the 328 is a very comfortable and fun car to drive. doesn't have as much kick as say, a g37 or 335, but the engine is very responsive and the power delivery is buttery smooth.
and no, i actually got the car brand new around september of 06' - which is why i probably had so many problems because it was part of the first batch that landed.
i was told by a friend who works at brian jessel that they're pretty firm with their prices on CPO cars simply because it's a CPO, but by all means give it a shot. in the end don't let a CPO car be the deal breaker if you can find a private sale for much cheaper. like i mentioned, the car is pretty damn reliable and if you can end up saving more money going the private sale route then by all means go for it. on top of that, CPO doesn't actually offer the same coverage as the original warranty. in many cases you'll need to pay for labor and diagnostics on some of the repairs, which isn't exactly dirt cheap either.
oh and lastly, don't forget to take into account the tax savings you'll get if you trade in your car to the dealer. remember, you pay tax on the price of the 328 with the price of the trade in subtracted from it. hope this helps!
