With Neal Sapp's nationals performance in a 325is, and with the E30 M3 going
to the new equivalent of GS next year, I was wondering which BMW might be
the best bet in this class next year.  What do y'all think?

E30 M3:  Not much low end torque, like the Type R, but heavier than a Type
R.  Possibly better balance though.  Has 15x7" wheels.  Parts are very
expensive.

E36 325is:  Good torque.  Optional LSD.

328is:  Even more power than the 325, but no LSD option.

E30 325is:  Not as much power as the E36 cars, and different rear
suspension, but lighter.  Broader power band than the E30 M3.  Least
expensive option.

330Ci:  Will this be in GS?  Lots of power.  Big wheels.  Most expensive
option.
