I am trying to decide between an AH3 and AH5. The spec is:

Both will upgrade to 20" wheels

AH3 will have adaptive suspension

AH5 will have better interior options such as rear seat entertainment, HUD, comfort access etc

The AH5 will cost approx 20% more than the AH3 based on the above.

I live in a country where I cannot specify options, I have to take what they have on offer (other than adding M-Sport and M-Performance options). There is no 335i or 535i available so my choices are limited. They also cost at least double what you would pay elsewhere.

This wont be a daily driver, more for fun - but I do have 2 kids that will occasionally be in it - and would like to use it for holidays etc. I am also in the 40+ age group that reading these forums tells me I should be getting a 5 series and also smoking a pipe and wearing slippers.... :-)

I should add that I have driven a Sport line 328i and also a 528i. I liked both - but neither had the engine sound I really crave. Hence - looking at something with a straight 6....
The 5 in white with m performance pkg looks sweet
