Limited edition 335s............ Canada

Ok this is from main forum, however wonder if they would ever release some special editions on this side of the pond,

http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=839850

What would you like added to a UK specific special edition.

A nice stealth black carbon for starters or some unique colours.

I dunno... For $63,000... I'd save for another month, and order a stripper M3 for a little over $64,000.... No amount of M Performance parts will equal an M3 or it's exclusivity.....

DCT gearbox, lower ride height, special colours, racing bucket seats, gear shift lights set in steering wheel, Sport +++ mode, no ECOpro mode, tunable user settings on an M button, LSD, machine guns for middle lane dawdlers, non RFT option, diesel engine and xDrive omission, fog light delete, twin rear exhausts

.....basically go back to BMW of old.

Hang on I've just described the M3/4

I agree with you, BMW GB need to do something special too. Cant be bothered with all the its not an M nonsense just spend your money on what you want and enjoy it, for info my current car is an M and my next car will not be but in 2016/17 i will go back to an M when the M2 arrives.

Ouch... I was using US/Canadian Dollars in my figures. Still hard to understand why markup is that high in the UK.

If you look at original post, the Canadians pay more than the spams do as it is.

I think comparing price with what is available in states v uk is pretty pointless due to afore mentioned pricing.

Also, the M series are not that special, hence the special edition M5.

So yes as ford did with their focus rs500 edition.

With special editions it's not just the actual power, it's the package.
