I wish they would get rid of these lines. It made deciding on my F30 a real pain.

nice to see xenon as standard.. if only the f30 would get that option. maybe in the lci it will have the Full LED as optional and xenons as standard.

Awesome... When I was going to oder a 2012 E92 it wasn't an option. One of the reasons I kept my 2009.

I think for once the packages are nicely made. They kind of make sense and you don't have to take a whole package to get one of the things really needed.
Except: 1. Navigation should be standard on any BMW nowadays 2. So should the heated front seats and alarm. |

Mostly, (reading Cadillac Escalade and Audi A6 forums) LED low beams are not as powerful as new HIDs. Current LEDs still have hard time matching HID systems in lumens per watt output (efficiency).
But on the over hand LED are more intelligent (check 7-series LED headlights in action), last longer, output doesn’t decline over time like HID bulbs and they look waaaay cooler (at least Audi's headlights). |

Negative. People are cheap. Even when spending $40K on a car, some people get really annoyed that a $2K navigation is more expensive and has less features than their $200 smart phone. So they refuse to pay. And BMW can't give away Nav "for free" on a $40K car, so they let people pay the premium. When you get into the $70K base price, then there is enough margin to include it for free. |

Are you sure?
I was just reading an article somewhere a couple weeks back saying that LED technology has yet to surpass HID's in light output...

So still no premium leather option? what was the point of adding a number to the name when it has all the same options as the 3 series? At least make nappa/novillo leather available. Better be an option in the Gran Coupe or that car seriously has no point.

No MT on x-drive!! FAIL
It's sad to see BMW going the way of infinity on their AWD cars and not offering MT. Bullshit IMHO. I live in a winter climate and want to shift myself. What's wrong with that?

Let me know when your phone can project turn by turn directions into your HUD BTW, you can use google maps to find a destination and send directly to the car's navigation, you use the BMW Remote App. |

We will adapt to the new naming convention in time though... especially the part where they are renaming the 1-series to the 2-series to make room for the M1?? (guy can dream, can't he?)
