My friend has a 2000 328i manual and took me for a spin and it corners extremely well- and he doesn't have the sport package. If I were you I wouldn't get the sport package. These may seem minor but here are my reasons for not getting it:
1) Low-profile tires wear faster
2) Tires more expensive to replace
3) Without sport car handles just about as good
4) Smoother ride
5) Better traction in snow if you drive in it

MAKE SURe you get the Xenon headlights-even if it's just for the looks!!! I have heard the reg stereo and it sounds fine; personally 10 speakers is fine. The in-dash Cd player is well worth it. I am going to get leatherette seats in my 325i, so DO get them.-(save yourself $1500!)
