Re: 320 or 325?
Your regular workshop should do, get your mechanic to check the standard issues like gearbox & oil leak (valves/gasket seals), other wear & tear sometimes bo bian one.. I already replaced 2 door locking device & 1 power window device not mentioning others from the engine bay & under carriage, just be prepared & enjoy your new ride.
Otherwise, go to site sponsor like R2D or BVO..etc
Best of luck in your shopping.

Re: 320 or 325?
irrelevant bro.
both have the same transmission, and for LCI 320i, likely 325i has the better ZF shifter. still, the IL6 has better low down power for zero-to-traffic-light drag race. 325i also has DISA + Double VANOS + Valvetronic. no matter how the 320i is modded, it is still not going to gain 62 or so horses, unless it is FI-ed.
i would agree that the real deal is with the driver skills, but here in SG, no need. even sonata taxi also can win you even if you drive a lambo. how? he just have to accelerate before the light turns green and drive in the middle of two lanes in front of you. you also lan lan.

Re: 320 or 325?
The LCI 320 uses a GM gearbox while the 325 rightly said is using ZF gearbox - not the same.
That being said there is no way the 320 is going to close the 1.8 sec 0-100 gap between the 2.
But what Seanskye is saying is that the gap can be reduced and would be useful for the driver of the smaller engine between traffic lights.
IMHO - there is relavence - Typically when the stock transmission up shifts it takes 200ms while down shifts takes about 100ms. And while it's shifting the ignition timing might pull and the drive train is not fully engaged for power delivery. If each shift's timing is reduced by 30% and each traffic light involves 2-3 shifts .... The gap would close or open more depending on who did the transmission tune.
Just my 2 cents .......

Re: 320 or 325?
Agreed that the 325 has a substantially taller drive ratio ......
Generally the shorter drive ratios are better for quick acceleration over short distances while taller ratios are better for reaching top speed over longer distances.
The shift point has an influence as well ......
In the past - If lup turbo is not an option .... A shorter FD ratio is a mod worth considering though top speed would reduce.

Re: 320 or 325?
I think i gotta make a thread for V6 and IL6.
Anyway, inline 6 is real sweet when you rev hard.

When i own V6 , yes V6 is da best.
If i own IL6, then IL6 FTW.
