With the D3 the exclusive small series manufacturer from book RST pushes exactly into the gap, which leaves BMW between 320d and 330d. Faithfully the slogan "it may be somewhat more?" Alpina refined the series sedan at a fair price skillfully. With the strong engine and the successful chassis tuning, which are even superior to the series counterpart in the comfort on bad roads, 3er-Fans gets a balanced sport version supplied. Thus the knappe victory of this restaurant Derbys goes to the Alpina. In addition, the 320d confirms more with its qualities once that particularly dynamic sedans in Bavaria are built.

Give me the Alpina please

Second that.

I would go for the 320d. It looks better in the interior, plus it has I-drive. The power difference is not big enough, but definitely noticable. Although i would still go for the 320. A black 3er with a light gray and wood interior always looks better to me than a blue car with black/aluminum trim interior...
