328i Sport Alpine White 6 spd MT ordered
Just placed my order on a 328i Alpine White
-8 speed auto with sport paddle shifters -Sport package -Alpine White -Premium package -Xenon lights -Black leather with red highlights -Black mirror caps -Cold Weather package -Aluminum trim -Coral red highlights I really wanted to keep the car as basic as possible but I'm still undecided on whether I should have addded the premium and xenons. I have a few weeks to adjust the order. I'm wondering with the new packaging if we'll see more BMWs with only halogens? Last edited by BMWinGE; 02-22-2012 at 12:52 PM.. Reason: updated options |

I personally think Premium is worth it, worst mistake I made not getting it on my E90. Everyday conveniences like leather, power seats, auto-dimming mirrors and comfort access will be sorely missed without it.

I only put about 100 miles per week on my car, and rarely at night, so the conveniences aren't quite as important to me. However, I am concerned how the car will look without the xenons/corona rings. Unfortunatley, I havent seen many BMWs running around without to get an idea.

Leather, power seats, power folding mirrors, comfort access, autodimming mirrors, moonroof, lumbar support, universal garage door opener. Hell, it's worth it just for the autodimming mirrors. I got so fed up not having those in my current car that I had them retrofitted. Probably the best "mod" I've done

As for corona rings, I know I'm in the minority, but I have them turned off on my 1er, I just find them annoying, so getting a car without them would not be a negative to me. HID's are nice, but the unfortunate grouping of them into ZPP just means I'll pass on them for my F31. |

The rest of the premium package I can live without for many of the reasons already mentioned in this thread. |

I went with the Black leather with red highlights. I have a few more days to decide on my final options. After seeing the live photo of the car in NJ without xenons I'm a little less concerned but still uncertain. BMW really made it a tough decision to not go with the premium package. |

Xenons are a must. Not only do they add aesthetic value with the Angel eyes, they are highly superior to halogens functionally. It is too bad that they must be bundled with ZPP but ZPP does add functionality that one would expect on a $40K automobile...
