Which F30 model do you have (or ordered) - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

Bmwphile · 05-04-2012, 05:34 PM

I'm surprised no-one has started this poll. I tried to find one but couldn't. Apologies if it already exists, but here goes........

I went for a 328i as it hit the sweet spot for me. The 320d was similar price (at least in Australia) but not as smooth or as quick as the 328i. The 335i was just out of my price range.

335i Sportline in Glacier Silver with premium package because the monthly lease difference with an equally equipped 328i was $100/month.

335i

svache · 05-04-2012, 05:47 PM

Was doubting between the 328i and the 335i, only because of the looks of the exhaust and, later on, the mileage. In the end I went with the 328i because it seemed silly to pay 3500-4000 more just for the looks of an exhaust placement and because it had a lower mileage (we were planning to move to Europe and take the car with us). Instead of moving to Europe, we stay here for now lol so I guess I could have taken the 335i as the mileage doesn't matter anymore but I didn't felt like canceling my order and add a month, maybe two to the already long wait so I just kept my order instead. I still feel very good about this option, the car is awesome!

The only one available on my country is the 320d and that's actually a good thing when you gave to pay $7 a gallon for fuel.

320d Luxury.

It's a company car and the tax I pay on the benefit in the UK is directly linked to the CO2 emissions. Would have preferred a 328i but the tax cost (and lower mpg) put it out of range).

David328M-Sport · 05-05-2012, 03:45 AM

328i M-Sport Package. See below

BTW, the 316d is missing in the list (available in certain countries).

CoolDude196 · 05-05-2012, 03:49 PM

320d sport (on order)
Popular choice in uk, mpg is key with us, as we have the highest fuel prices in the developed world.. Probably

328i Sport. Didn't think the extra money for the 335 was worth it. 328i doesn't lack performance and gets better fuel economy. I'm very happy

Just picked up my 335i Modern Line/Liquid Blue Metallic last week.

Diesel is more expensive in the UK than here, but Euro95 is more expensive in Belgium and several other countries.
