i should have done that from the beginning

I was originally building a 328i like this

estoril blue/coral red leather
manual transmission
premium package (for the LED headlights)
M-sport package
adaptive M suspension
driver assist

sticker price puts it about $48.5k
then i realized it's less than $5k less than a similarly optioned 340i because LED is standard so i don't need the premium package

340i
estoril blue/coral red leather
manual transmission
m-sport package
adaptive M suspension
driver assist
$53k

the stripped down 328i that just arrived at the dealership yesterday for me
i will be checking it out in person tonight
I had an E90 328 that was very stripped down (sports package, xenon were the only options) and it was great but sticker at $36k. $48.5k is tougher for me to accept for F30.

Does it need to be new? You can get a really nice E9X m3 for that F30 328 price and the 340 price is close to F80 M3 euro delivery price if you can find an allocation

we compromised on my wife's 335 (no m sport brakes, extra cooling or back up camera) and i noticed it the entire 33 months I had the car. Nice car, but not exactly what I wanted
