I saw this 2011 RWD 328i wagon for sale near me for $9900. It has the Sport & Premium package, non iDrive, and 96k miles.

I have a 2011 E90 328i, 6 MT, 72k miles, non Sport package and non iDrive.

The sport package and RWD E91 looks pretty nice. Essentially I'm getting a wagon for 24k more miles with the Sport Package.

What do you guys think about that, going from a sedan to a wagon with the Sport Package?

Watch out for the base stereo system in the 2010 to 2011.5 model
year its a POS.
Wagon is nicer if you have stuff to carry.
As far as I am concerned I wouldn't buy a BMW without sport seat's
but that may not be enough to compensate for the awful base
stereo.
I don't know if the Sport Package does all that much for the suspension
in a Wagon.

I have the base stereo and from one of the picture it looks like the wagon has the Harmon Kardon. I might go and take a look at this car this afternoon to see if it's a worthwhile upgrade.

You have less miles, MT and know the maintenance history so I would not replace it with the E91. If you need more room to haul things, I would add it if you can or just stick with the E90.

Having the manual might be a big consideration.
I don't like most automatics . You will defiantly find
and automatic more sluggish. And since the wagon
is heavier it will effect acceleration.

BMW + Automatic Transmission = Grief
Don't do it unless you absolutely have to.

Well it turns out that on the way to check out the car, another person test drove and bought the car by the time I got there.

Thanks for your inputs. Guess I’ll keep my car in the meantime.

The wagons are pretty handy.

and can be made sneaky quick.

Just convert yours to a sport package. New suspension, new front seats, all said and done for, let's say, under $2k. Add another couple hundred for the steering wheel and you're pretty much spot-on.
