That's what I have in my 323iT now: Jet Black/Black Leather; Sport-Premium; in-dash CD; HK; heated seats; Xenon.

The ride isn't at all harsh except over the choppiest roads and even then the absolutely fabulous sport seats soak up any harshness.

Here's a link to my "T" if you'd like to see what the 17" Wheels do for the look. (Click on the dimension tag under each picture to get the high res version)

: Hello,

: I have a 323i Sport Wagon on order. Hey, I would rather drive a sports car too, but my dogs AND husband won't fit in one! So, I opted for the wagon, as the best of both possible
: worlds.

: What I would like to know from you other BMW drivers is: Is
: the optional Sports Package worth the extra $$$?

: This car comes standard with 16" alloy wheels and Michelin
: Energy tires (which I like). The sport package comes with
: 17" wheels, larger tires, a "sport steering wheel" with
: cruise control (which I must have), and sport seats.

: I just can't decide if it's worth the extra money. I can still change my order if I hurry. What do people think? I
: love to drive and I love to corner, which is why I bought a
: BMW with an manual transmission. Should I splurge any get
: the sport package too? Or just get the cruise control?

: Thanks for your input!

: PS I opted for the black interior after reading the glare
: problems with the sand. Thanks for the great discussion!
