Why is there no love for the E92 335i from BMW Performance?

I went to the dealer the other day to find out the cost of a few BMW Performance items for my E92 335i M Sport:

"How much does the carbon fibre rear diffuser cost?"
"Sorry, that's not available for the E92 335i"

"Hmm...OK, what about a price for the BMW Performance intake?"
"Nope, that's not available for it either"

C'mon BMW, the 335i is worthy of these options, so why can't we get them? Even the E90 335i can get the rear diffuser!

Sorry, rant over

335D is the same, and yet the 330D gets loads of stuff... why?

Because they sell bijillions of the 330's compared to the 335's thats why!!

i was told by the dealer its probably becasue the 335D isnt considered as much of a performance car ... its definately something BMW need to sort out as there are a lot of customers (me included and probably you as well mate) who would jump on some official tuning parts.

Show your dealer the Performance, sorry cosmetic catalogue. At the back is a picture of the diffuser on a 335i coupe.

I love the irony of that!
