F31 Touring (3 Series Wagon) Gone from US?
Seems I've read that the F31 Touring wagon will not be imported into the US. Is this true? So would the last wagon for the American market be the 2011 E91? If true, this is incredibly sad news (and I had better order a 2011 328xi wagon soon).
I love my 2000 323it wagon, but it badly needs replacing. |

True, I could probably secure a good deal on a E91 off a lot, but I really want a manuel and I've noticed that these are very rare on the wagons. So I'll likely order one for European Delivery. Not only would I get the discount, but would end up with the exact options/packages that I want but would not have to pay for the ones I don't. Damn, I am just sad that the F31 won't be imported--I've been through the sports utility routine, and I really like a wagon but with the handling and features of a three series. I don't know why so few Americans don't "see it my way."
One more question: Does anyone have a guesstimate as to when production would end on the E90/91? |

I tried to order a Monoco Blue E91 in May 2010. I missed the 2010 cut-off, ended up having to order a 2011 (BMW stopped Monoco for 2011, BTW). Given it's now May, if you are interested in an E91, I'd call a dealer to see if BMW is still taking orders...

Lots of engines available in Europe: 520d, 523i, 525d, 528i, 530d, 535d, 535i. I believe that both the 523i and 528i use the N53 (3.0 liter, NA). BMW NL Configurator page: http://www.bmw.nl/nl/nl/newvehicles/...figurator.html Last edited by roundle; 05-25-2011 at 12:11 PM.. |
