The price difference is about $4k more for the 525, assuming you don't get every single option group and try to equip them similiarly.
I'd be sold on a 525. The tradeoff is a nicer car but with less horsepower. Keep in mind though that it's a mechanically identical engine (less 3 stage air intake.) But flash the ECU and you'll come damn close the 330i's power rating.

Even though you said no questions, Why?

Drove them both. The size of the 525 was nice, but I hated the handling and thought the acceleration was poor. (I'd driven the Infiniti M35, which utterly outguns either the 3- or 5-Series.)
The 2006 3-Series is almost as big as the 5, and is much more up-to-date. It's faster, less expensive, and is more fun to drive.
