Just ordered My F30 328i - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

Tim_78 · 04-22-2012, 08:24 AM

After selling my E90, I finally ordered my 2012 328i.

The options include:

1) Mineral Gray exterior
2) Saddle Brown Interior
3) Luxury Line
4) Premium Package
5) Xenon Headlights
6) Park Distance Control
7) Rear View Camera
8) Anti Theft Alarm System
9) Split Folding Rear Seat

Price out the door (including tax and all fees) $45,412 USD

Now, all I have to do is to wait patiently.

Thanks for looking.

Congrats!

Great color and great build. Congratulations!

JustinTJ · 04-22-2012, 02:22 PM

Saddle brown is the cat's meow. Best interior out there.

Tim_78 · 04-22-2012, 02:38 PM

One of the reason why I went ahead with Luxury line. Saddle is a great color for interior I think. Thanks for the nice comments.

The car is ordered yesterday so I do not have a pic of the actual car. See attached from the BMW website. It will exactly look like that.

The only reason I went with the luxury line instead of the sports line is because I wanted the Saddle Brown interior.

I went with the same, Mineral Grey with Saddle Brown! Congratulations on your choice!

That's a great price. Congrats. How did you get below invoice pricing?

I know, I couldn't pass on this deal. I got this price through the company I work for. Let's say a corporate discount program. I was tempted to get the 335i since the pricing was great but then I realized I really don't need a 335i.

Elk · 04-22-2012, 09:45 PM

What is this "need" you speak of?

I am not very much into speed or fast driving or have the need to have a car that accelerates quick. I think 335i is more suitable for drivers who appreciate these more. And 335i deserves people who will appreciate it more

congrats! can't wait for the pic

Today, I was thinking if I should add the Navigation package. My dealerhip told me that I still can add stuff to the car even though it is on order.

What do you guys think? Should I get the Navigation package or simply buy a Garmin GPS for $250 or add the Nav pckg. for $2550???

I really do not use GPS daily, or have a need for daily use, I need GPS maybe once a month.

But still would like to consider adding. What do you guys think?

justinnum1 · 04-24-2012, 07:05 PM

i dont think its worth $2550, but thats me.

Elk · 04-24-2012, 07:46 PM

Sadly, a Garmin 3490 will do a better job. Buy the package only if you want the big screen.

jzcrna · 04-24-2012, 08:20 PM

aside from navigation you need to figure out what you need that requires the tech package for which I'm not sure at the top of my head right now. in hindsight I probably could have gotten premium sound without tech package, etc. BMW apps is great though for the MOG and Pandora interfaces. you need the package for BMW Apps. I also like the HUD so I can see my speed at all times.

But the rest of the apps suck IMO.

it's hard to say. I might have been disappointed without it so it doesn't bother me that I got it if that makes any sense.
