The wife and I found a mint 1999 323 sedan today and are considering buying it. The car has the "premium option package" with every gizmo under the sun. The car has only 35K miles on it, looks and drives like brand new, and is priced right! I've never owned a BMW and am wondering about repair concerns I'll face. Have these cars been the paragon of reliability, or should I jump on the '02 Jetta GTI we were considering? Am I getting nameplate fever? I'm putting the wife through Med School so money (and warranties) are a concern. Input please!!
