Question About The Sport Seat

Bimmer_2 · 01-27-2006, 09:14 AM

I plan to order a 330i with either "Sport+Premium" or just "Sport+Leather" in order to save $700. Will the sport seat be any different between those 2 option packages, like less power features or no seat memory? Thanks in advance for the help.

Arkansas3 · 01-27-2006, 09:16 AM

the 330 has power seats standard

RGRAY · 01-27-2006, 02:32 PM

I ordered Sports + Leather + Heated Seats + Comfort Access.

I think that's a good combination.

If I'm not mistaken you only get the lumbar support in the sets with the premium package.

seevemonka · 01-27-2006, 03:12 PM

if you get sport,then there will be no difference in the seats if you order premium or just leather.With premium you will get bluetooth,bmw assist and a compass.

I think Espo89 is right -- anyone have the time to check?

stressdoc · 01-27-2006, 03:18 PM

Yes, he was right. The seats are the same except for the power lumbar support. Here is the prem pack list:

Premium Package

4-way adjustable power lumbar support for front seats

Leather upholstery

Interior and power-adjustable folding exterior mirrors with automatic-dimming function; digital compass

Integrated 3-button Universal garage-door opener

BMW Assist10 with Bluetooth® wireless technology

yes he's right. i have a 330 with only sports pkg and my seats do not have lumbar.

Sports Package addes the extended leg support, adjustable side bosters
Premium adds 4 way lumber support

noflash · 01-27-2006, 03:47 PM

I think lumbar is one of those hidden options. It was a $400 one for the e46; if your dealer feels like putting in the effort to order ala carte for you.

Bimmer_2 · 01-27-2006, 04:21 PM

I think that I will go with the premium and sport package. Thanks for the answers.

Pretender · 01-27-2006, 05:17 PM

Go with sport package for only ~$1500 more. The sport seats are awesome. Plus, you get the lower recalibrated suspensions and 162 wheels. I regreted for not getting one.

lux.sh · 01-27-2006, 05:32 PM

you'll want premium also. Bluetooth rocks. (with 23427408 problems)

petesamprs · 01-27-2006, 07:15 PM

To answer your question:
No sport or premium package: Regular power seats
Sport only: Power sports seats (w/ power-adjustable side bolster, manual-adjustable thigh support)
Premium only: Regular power seats with power-lumbar support
Sport & premium: Power sport seats with power-lumbar support

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

The lumbar support button on the premium package seats is the same button that works the bolster supports on the sport seats.

That's why you can't have both.

I'm 6' 3' and did not like the lumbar support, but my wife is 5' 2"
and she liked it.

Not true there are 2 buttons (I have the sport+premium seats).

Right. And you can't have a clutch and a brake pedal either. It's one or the other only.
