I originally didn't want a moonroof, but couldn't live without some of the other things only available with the premium package, which included the moonroof. Now they're available without the premium package. Too late for me, but it's nice to see.

It's very good to hear that xenons are now a stand-alone option, but BMW needs to stop this nonsense immediately. They cannot keep changing things when the car is less than a year old.
I would be soooo pissed if I had purchased an F30 and had gotten the 3K premium package as an option just to get the xenons. |

BMW has lumped options together on the 2013 X1 so that in order to be eligible to buy xenons and backup sensors, you're on the hook for a $4k premium package and a $2.5k nav package. Add the lights plus sensors and it's another $2k on top of that. So, the car with the low $30's base price becomes a $40k car. BMW should have learned from the F30 experience, but I suppose it will have to go through it again.

I like the standard features and options for 2013 328i. The base price is $36,500 that is $1,600 more than 2012 328i. The 2013 standard includes:
Split fold-down-rear seat ($475) Power front seats with drive seat memory ($995) Universal garage-door opener Auto-dimming interior and exterior mirrors Auto-dimming rearview mirror. For $130, we get garage-door opener and auto dimming mirrors and I think that is a good deal. I also like the Dynamic Handling Package ($1,000) which is $200 less than 2012. The best of all is the stand-alone Xenon Lighting Package. In 2012 if we want xenon headlight we are forced to order Premium Package which costs $3,600. I am glad that I decided to wait. Here's what I have ordered 2013 328i M-Sport Line Estoril Blue II Style 400 M with mixed performance summer tires Highlight trim finishers pearl gloss chrome Venetian Beige Dakota Leather Driver Assistance Package Dynamic Handling Package Xenon Lighting Package Heated front seats Manual Transmission Last edited by kimluk; 05-29-2012 at 01:06 AM.. |

Don't care too much about the comfort access
Had it in my 2009 128i, and it didn't work half the time (especially the times I really needed it to work i.e. grocery bag in hand etc).
The other problem was that one of the fob was washed in the washer as it was in my pocket. Lastly, I could never find my keys!! With my 2006 E90, I never had that problem with the key fob. i will be ordering the 2013 328i with sports and xenon soon as I finally solf my 128i!! |

Couple of ?'s on the F30 335i 2013 options/standard features:
Sunroof is STD but is it possible to request sunfoof DELETE from BMWNA--via Individual?--or through BMW directly? I really don't want it and would never use it. Is there an advantage to opting for the same size tires/rims w/ ZMM M-Sport Pkg vs having the standard staggered sizes? The Hexagonal Aluminum dash--do we know if that comes STD w/ the Blue stripe vs the Black stripe? for M-Sport versions? Can anybody tell/show me what the Headlight "finishers" look like in Estoril Blue/Gloss Black/Chrome pearl?--I see this is STD for M-Sport but u can choose the color Thanks for any help. This will be my 1st new BMW--had a 76 2002 and this will be a big step up from my current GTI |
