I had a '95 540ia for a while (wife insisted we get an automatic since she can't drive stick and I decided if I HAD to go auto, I was going to get a car with so many horsepower I didn't care), and it felt really heavy and slow to me. Sure it'd press you into your seat, but not the way an Aero does. It was ponderous, not light on its feet. This one had a few aftermarket goodies too... a B&B TriFlow exhaust, Bilstein/Eibach suspension setup with Racing Dynamics swaybars. Just wasn't that much fun to drive. Funny thing is, wife hated it too. :)
Now I'm back into a '96 9000 Aero 5 speed, and am much happier. Now with a 3" turbo-to-tail and a Nordic Stage 3 in it, I can't imagine any other car, especially at this price point, providing as many smiles-per-mile.
My $0.02.
