E46 fully loaded or e9x?

I was wondering. A few years ago when the new e90s came out and there were still new e46s available. Which would people pick? An e46 with leather and xenon options for $29000 or a base (no leather, xenon, idrive, or any of the packages) e90 for $33000? Just wondering which one would people choose.

Both are the 325i model.

I would wait until I could afford the Xenons and then buy the E90. If a $800 option is a deal breaker then you probably shouldn't be buying the car in the first place IMO.

The only way that I would buy a left over would be if it was simply an update or facelift that the new car had (ie. E46 coupe from 2003 to 2004 where they ruined the front end on the '04). I would never buy a left over once the new chassis came out though. After six months you will be regretting it.
