Some people just don't like/want what BMW brings to a car. Go drive one, but at least make sure it's a 5-speed.
Performace wise, the 3.0 is what you want if you can't pony up for the M3. The E46s are the best looking lineup of cars that they, in my opinion, have ever came out with. Put coil-overs and a nice wheel/tire package and you'll be happy for a while. If you wanna go faster, a bunch of countries make supercharger kits and Active Autowers is coming out with a turbo for it very very soon. But the cool thing is that ~95% of the things that are available for M3s are also available for the 330ci.
Plus bitches will be impressed:
