only the uk has the sport models, so i guess decent 325i's will be worth that in other countrys :)

We have sports over here but theyre 325is, like 318is, not "sport". But a good 325is can go for aorund $12000-$14000. Last week one went for $18000!!!

You could send one over here but you would have a hard time selling it because we know it would have rust...... Ours dont.... Personally I wouldnt buy a UK car.... And yes our cars are expensive compared to yours... Parts too
