Drove it last weekend. 330iSE auto. Very nice and I really liked the shape. Does pretty much everything an e46 330 does but just better. Engine seems to have a little more power towards top end of rpm. Only thing I didn't like was openeing the doors from inside. The door handles makes clinky kinda sound rather that a solid thadunk when pulling the 'open handle'.

I'm in UK. I think the StartStop button is there so BMW can make extra money as ppl will think what's the point of having a key AND a startStop button - so ppl are more likely to opt for keyless go (more $$$ for BMW). iDrive 'looked' ok - I say looked coz I didn't play with it much but I have absolutely no problem with BMWs new cockpit layout (inc iDrive).

SE=Special Equipment (or something, just means there's some more standard stuff on it). 318 and 320 comes as standard, ES, SE. 325 and 330 comes as SE only. I didn't check for diesel models. I dont like diesels. Diesels make me mad. :banghead:

You're probably not in the UK then, I think the SE stuff is for UK market only. Check www.bmw.co.uk - you'll see all the stuff there.

i saw a e90-330i on korean television the other day and honestly i think it may grow on me eventually like all other new models...

i was pretty surprised they already had iDrive user interface localized into Korean.
