AlienX will become famous soon enough
if you want trunk space, and still want to good sounding system start with your internal speakers. Nice deck, new door/rear speakers and amp them, if that doesn't satisfy your need for the time being move up to a sub after but throwing in a sub with a stock deck and stock speakers sounds pretty crappy IMO. As for what kind of deck, Alpine #1 i must say, clarion, eclipse, pioneer are all good choices too.

dash kit + harness 30 dollars.

296 i spent your money. You can get better if you go to a car audio shop and haggle. but i would stay away from brands like sony, dual, and jensen. a cheap pioneer or alpine is better than a expensive dual. remember the 3 series is bmw's low line so dont worry about a high quality brands cheap stuff.

so true, went to pull in a customers car into the bay last week and it was a 3 series, what an expensive piece of crap. Cloth seats and you had to manually adjust them! I was speechless

no what i meant to say is that a cheap alpine is not a "cheap" deck. What i meant by dont worry is dont fear buying a 120 dollar alpine over a 300 dollar jensen. I didnt mean forget about them.
