How do I tell if my 2001 330ci is a sport package or any other package they offered?
Answer
Sports packaged cars have
1. 17" wheels and the car is lower to the ground than a standard car
2. Bolstered seats w/ thigh support (multi-adjustable sport seats)
3. Performance tires,
4. Stiffer suspension tuning
5. 3-Spoke steering wheel w/ controls.
and if you end up getting the car, welcome to the E46 community! haha You should join www.e46fanatics.com should you have any other questions, problems, advice, etc.
good luck with whatever you decide!

In response to Snowie, actually my 328ci sits on stock 15" directly from the dealership. So that completely debunks your statement, "328ci can't sit on 15" because their brakes are too big."
The only brakes that are "too big" for the stock setup would be from aftermarket brakes, and it wouldn't be the brakes alone, it'd actually be the rotors + calipers.
My current setup with my M has a Big Brake kit from StopTech 380mm (15" diameter rotor), which required me to upgrade my wheel and rim size, because my stock wheels were too small to wrap around the new rotors. the only size rotors you can wrap STOCK M3 rims/wheels are the 13" Rotors and you'd have to buy 3mm spacers along with that kit.

how to open a luxury sports car dealership?
i would like to open a luxury/exotic car dealership
What is a good location for this?
How much will i need to invest?
And what cars should i carry?
Answer
The secret of success is "inventory". If you can find a supply of exotic cars at a good price point, then you're halfway home. That's a big "IF", though! It's easier said than done. Let's see: 100 Ferrari 360s at $100,000 each = $10 million. Plus showroom, insurance and lawyers, you'd probably need total $20 million to start. You'd probably have to sell 50 per month to break even.
