40th Anniversary Edition 340i
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com Some of you guys might remember that I took delivery of a 320i Anniversary Edition two weeks ago. To cut a long story short I was not too impressed with the power of the 320 and I was lucky that my dealer got in a 340. (also an anniversary edition car.) So I did the right thing and swapped for the 340. Now I am smiling. A few pics. Last edited by polly; 09-17-2015 at 06:18 AM.. |

Excellent car!
One question: is that the "painted rear spoiler" or Carbon fiber spoiler? I can't tell with the reflections off of it.

Very nice!!
Well, this tells us the leather dash us currently available. So, if you want it in the U.S. the key is finding a CA and sales manager will to make it happen.

For my wife it did not matter. Because their was a anniversary edition available in the 340 and I can afford it I swopped out the 320. And I did not like the diesel sounding 4 cylinder. |

Polly, I remember your first set of pics. I made a point of dragging my wife over to see them. Great looking Anniversary Edition.
jfi, it's not possible to order the equivalent in the States. First, there is no anniversary edition available here -- a real pity. Additionally, if one chooses the M-Sport package here, that choice substitutes blacked-out trim for the brightwork around the windows on your car. The result is our M-Sport package looks cheap; yours looks superb. Finally, the exceptionally attractive alloy wheels on your car aren't even an option available to us. Even if they were, our choosing the M-Sport package would probably remove them. Thus, your Anniversary Edition is truly unique. Enjoy it in good health. |

Very sad to hear there is no anniversary editions optioned for the states. I thought their would be knowing the states is bmw's biggest market. I know the wheel is an individual optioned wheel. Even the 320 is very well specced in South Africa. I believe bmw SA is only making 60 340 in the anniversary edition. Balance of the 400 is made up of the other models derivatives. By the way all the cars were all specced by someone at the factory. We had no choice in the options. Cheers |
