My dad has the 03 model 330Ci, while it's not all that fast, it's quite a luxurious vehicle, especially with the appropriate packages. BMW claims a 0-60 time of 6.4 seconds with the steptronic transmission... check bmwusa.com for the other statistics.

You get, according to BMW:
235-horsepower engine
More aggressively tuned sport suspension
8-way power front sport seats with 2-way manual headrests and thigh support; 3-driver memory for exterior mirror and seat positions; automatic tilt-down of passenger’s side-view mirror when vehicle is shifted into reverse gear
Anthracite interior headliner
Alcantara/cloth upholstery
Aluminum "black cube" interior trim
And for the individual questioning the term "whip," it is simply just slang for a vehicle in general. Generally you'll notice a lot of rappers using the term for their expensive, high class vehicles.
