especially after I saw the price difference between the 93SS and the 95 Aero. The wagon was never a big issue for me. My current car has performed fine (space wise) and never had the need for greater cargo. Two bikes on top/two kayaks with camping equipment, never had a problem.
The 9-5 problem for me was the updated model will probably bound soon. It is a beautiful car, and from a quick glance i couldn't tell it apart from the 93SS.
The 330 is an option, as is the A4, but BMW nickels and dimes you every option. So folding back seats is another $500ish. That is the biggest complaint about the BMW, and that there is one in everycorner.
I am the driver, any long trip especially I tend to drive the distance.
Thank you for your help.
