New to the Forum, very first BMW :)
Hello, everyone... Sorry for the double post since I posted exactly the same thing at the "Alpine White" Thread...
Anyway, New to this Forum and already a member of a BMW Forum in Brazil but have decided to go further  I'll post some pics of my first brand new 320i (4 days old) ! Owned a MB C180 before this one... One of the most curious things to me is actually the 3 series variants around the world. I've been checking here, optionals, finishing, etc... Very surprised about the differences ! Last year, BMW started assembling 3 Series in Brazil and for example, we don't have diesel versions (Only SUV's, trucks and busses run on Diesel in Brazil LOL) and neither, AWD 3 Series. However, the 320i and 328i (Not the 335i) are dual Fuel (Named Active Flex) so we can run the engine with Gasoline and/or Ethanol at any proportion... Although if you are running above 70% on Ethanol, the Start Stop function is automatically disabled. I don't have plans to fill up my tank with Ethanol AT ALL but some owners claim that the performance increase is evident.http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=925959 The only mods I have are coding and activating some hidden functions like Digital Speedometer on the Cluster base display, Easy Entry, Start Stop (Default Off) and courtesy exterior lights on when reversing ! In the near future, a Speedbuster Piggyback will come as well Little gift from the Dealer     Another interesting thing is that I haven't seen here any Business 6.6" Screen like mine... Only the basic ones or the Professional 8.8"  BMW remote showing the car location on my iPhone                Black Glossy Exhaust (Sport Pack)       Last edited by Captain BR; 11-14-2015 at 08:11 PM.. |

Congrats! Nice car!
I agree; the Germans seem to love their variations. It's interesting to see all the cars from around the world on these forums. Thanks for sharing! |

COngrats and it looks like a great build. I see you have all the important options picked. Weird how they dont have the bigger nav screens down there. Similar to how many 328s in the northeast seem to have halogens instead of hids.

Ji99lypuff, actually, I didn't have to choose anything, hehe. Here in Brazil, we can't pick any option. The packages are closed for ALL models. Our internal market even made up a version that we call "GP", which is mine. This version, is a considerably more complete version for the 320i. Regarding the 8.8 screen, we do have it... This is the way it works here: ALL models, AT ! No option for MT. 320i Sport - Along with the Sport Package (Trim, Steering wheel and exterior black glossy finishing), comes with HID lights (Actually, there's no 3 Series in Brazil without HID) , Rear parking sensor (Sound and Screen), electric Seats with memo for the driver, Basic 6.5 Screen (That one with the plastic frame), bi fuel (Alcohool and Gasoline), fog lights, internal mirror with darkening function (don't know how to call it in English  ), Automatic wipers and light sensors (HID), Paddle Shift, all bluetooth functions and 393 Wheels. You can't add anything to it... At least, not through the Dealer.320i Sport GP - All that comes with the standard Sport 320i plus NAV (Even though, after 2014, they come with the 6.5 Business Screen. It's the same size as the standard Screen but in my opinion, a 10000x better finishing since it's all glass and no plastic frame. You can check on my pictures. So in the end, we have 3 different Screens down here - 6.5 Standard, 6.5 Business with NAV and a different finishing, and naturally, the 8.8 Professional). From 2012 to 2014 the 320i GP's came with the 8.8 Screen... So, after 2014 they downgraded the car (GP Model) with the screen but upgraded with moonroof, paddle shifts, cruise control and light/rain sensor. Continuing: Cruise Control with brake function, Crystal Moonroof (After 2014), Dashboard cluster with extended information (on my pics), all the online services as Concierge, SOS, Apps, Teleservices, BMW Remote, etc. Splited back seat (don't know how to call it in English as well but I'm sure you know what I'm talking about lol). And, 392 Wheels. So far, this is all I can remember... Regarding the Screens, The two most known ones: http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=633568 The 3rd screen type (how mine looks like) As for the 328i Sport, everything that comes with the 320i Sport GP (Not to mention the different engine... However, in Brazil, they are rated with 184 HP for the 320i and 245 HP for the 328i) plus 8.8 Professional Screen, Harmann Kardon Sound System, rear camera and 397 Wheels. 320i and 328i GT - They all come with the 328i Config. We also had in 2014, a limited number of 320i and 328i M Sport Package. They were all sold very quickly... And they both came with all the optionals that comes with the 328i Sport... And of course, the exterior M package ! Regarding the 335i, I don't know for sure but I'm very positive that comes with everything possible ! It costs close to 95K US Dollars  Last edited by Captain BR; 11-22-2015 at 05:53 AM.. |

i never knew about that third screen size available in the international markets. So weird how different all the packages and standard equipment each country is given. Id say the options given in that package you have are solid choices. Enjoy the new car, i know i still do after two years of ownership.
