e46 has a nicer exterior, nicer interior, bigger back seat and trunk, and is MUCH easier to work on.

e82 is lighter and stiffer chassis.

I sold our e91 and replaced it with an e46 wagon primarily because I couldn't stand working on the e91. My brother sold his e82 for a similar reason.

Any ~20 year old car is going to require some upkeep at this point. I'd get the e46 over the e82 just for ease of work.
