    John, your ability to capture pictures and drive is quite astounding.  They're usually pretty clear with the whole car in them!

              Correct.  It was a thing.  M52B25.  I think they were about 20hp shy of the M52b28 and M50b25

                  Exactly, they didn't call it a 325 because it had less power than the m50b25, go figure...

                        Yea, they only made them from 96-99 in "is" form and up to 98 in sedan.  I'm not really sure why they felt they needed a model above a 318 but below the 328.  I wonder if they just had some bonus parts around and thought, "why the hell not"
