<p>I aim to please. :-) </p>
<p>My touring is indeed a unicorn. </p>
<p>I've been looking off and on for a couple of years for one equipped just like my 328i.
</p>
<p>This one (139k miles) is almost exactly the same as my 328i (and I didn't want an xi)
</p>
<p>Sport pkg (req) </p>
<p>Premium pkg (not req, but high on my list) </p>
<p>Sunroof (req) </p>
<p>Xenons (req) </p>
<p>Manual gearbox (req) </p>
<p>Heated seats (my 328i has adj lumbar support - mutually exclusive I believe) </p>
<p>Premium sound package (not req, but high on my list) </p>
<p>As with my 328i, the color is not my first choice, but it's highly acceptable.
</p>

<p>They are out there, but hard to find and when you do find them, the prices are usually sky high. Here's one that I may have considered if mine fell through. The price isn't bad at all for a touring so equipped, but it's about 1.5x what I paid. It's my first
choice of color (not sure about the int though). </p>

<p>I absolutely love the touring. </p>

For sure PPIs are a good idea with 911s! Though it is often the case that if you find a good car at a great price, it can get snapped up so quick that anyone who gets it ends up buying it without one. This is where the judgment comes in...<br>

How is your Touring equipped? From last September, when I got back from a long road trip in my Accord with a fresh hatred for its automatic and crappy fuel economy and boringness, I've been casually shopping for a normal replacement for it. For a while E46
Tourings were on my short list (for some reason I have come to prefer B6 Avants over them now). Unfortunately, as with a number of other cars, the ones I am interested in are unicorns. In this case, E46 Tourings with no more than 100k or so miles, a manual,
RWD, sunroof and the sport package. I swear there must be about three of those in the country...<br>
