Is it E90post's Fault?

HRC · 10-31-2006, 12:59 PM

So you didn't get the ZSP...ZPP...ZCW...etc, or Shades, etc...and now you regret not getting it. Is it because of E90post, or do you regret not getting the options for another reason?

I would have been happy without the ZPP and the ZCW, until I met some local members who have these. I like the heated front/fold down rear seats and Auto Dimming rear mirror & Bluetooth...next car

MrSilver · 10-31-2006, 01:14 PM

I used this forum to determine what options I needed/wanted, and do not for one second regret my choices.

Ted · 10-31-2006, 01:14 PM

Well I changed my order and got Logic7 put on my E92 because of E90Post, so cheers guys. And so I guess I would have regretted it had I not got it and then came here.

Not just options but mods....

Alright, but back in May 05 when I joined, there wasn't a whole lot of members who had information to share, plus I had already ordered the car back in April 05.

That kinda ties in to what I was asking about. If you didn't get the ZSP option, but came here and saw, say the M steering wheel...BAM!!

So true

RiXst3r · 10-31-2006, 01:43 PM

I almost didnt get ZSP, but after reading on here, I was like, oh snap, what was i thinking, quick call to the CA, I NEED ZSP and PADDLES! luckily it wasnt too late! I think the paddles are great, and the sport seats are even better...

But if I had never logged onto here, I would probably be happy either way, wouldnt know what i was missing...

Yea, for us Beta-Testers, there was not much help. I actully did well considering I ordered my car before I found out about e90post. I knew I wanted ZSP, Leather and Shades.

Danny

hkj · 10-31-2006, 01:52 PM

hey I'm with you Danny. I was living happily w/o the heated seats option until our first meet where someone demonstrated to me how nice an option it is. @#!$@#%

Yep, it's the fault of this forum.

And when the M3 comes out we are all going to see M3 steering wheel w/ M stitching and BAM!!$$ again.

It's always better to go to forum and get some knowledges before you purchase the vehicle...

Very true, thank you E90post.com

just4kickz · 10-31-2006, 02:15 PM

premium package is a must for me... gotta get those leather seats, exterior folding mirrors, garage opener, etc... sport package was also a must... those 162s fit so well for oem wheels... and lastly the zcw... well i dont have it... and i dont really need it so i dont really care much about it even if other members say its worth the money...

i guess its kinda like the 6cd player changer... did anybody get this? im fine with one in the front... i really dont need 6... haha plus i got the ipod.

Bimmerista · 10-31-2006, 02:23 PM

I used introspection to determine the options that I want and if I had the chance I would choose the exact same options again. I do not have premium and Canadian cars already come with what is referred to in the US as the Cold Weather Package, as well as Xenon lights.

John · 10-31-2006, 02:31 PM

i have learned more from here than from any person (exceptnio marke90m3) or dealer.

this site is so useful, cause people who are knowledable and care about bmws are here helping eachother out.

ZSP as stated by everyone here is NECESARY. and you know what? thats the only option i got, and am 110% satisfied. after sitting in a non ZSP car, you realized that it really is necesary for fun driving.

but the good thing is really, that people who are like "shit, i wish i was on the post first to know what to get" will know for the future bmws that they will prolly have (bmw has addictive effect on people) and soon mark and jason will be crack dealers of the car world

NSM · 10-31-2006, 02:38 PM

I ordered my car with every option available on an xi. Although I was a member before the car was ordered, like Danny said there were not many people on here with other options and stuff I didn't know about. It was this forum however, that made me want an ACS kit and suspension etc.. God Ignorance really is Bliss.

Mr. BMW · 10-31-2006, 02:48 PM

Well, since I'm a previous BMW owner, I pretty much knew which options I liked from my other cars.
The hardest part was figuring out what color combination to get

therealm3 · 10-31-2006, 02:50 PM

For me options were not so much the issue. Instead it was color choice. I thought I had it all figured out, and then I found the forum and agonized over it for weeks. Then I made a decision and now 3 weeks before my car gets here I am wondering if I made the right choice. Man I just need the car to get here and then I'll feel better. I hope....

ksfrogman · 10-31-2006, 02:50 PM

Hi Danny. The two penultimate vehicles I had were fully loaded with options, so I didn't know what it was like to miss items I didn't want. Something then came over me (I thought it was maturity or frugality) that restrained me from getting all the options on my last truck purchase. I knew that this "ultimate driving machine" had better have the ultimate collection of options so I got everything I could at the time minus the options I really did not care for. My only regret was not having had the premonition of the E90 335i.
