Help on my new BMW!

chopsinblack · 03-02-2010, 11:32 PM

I have a 2008 335i sedan, its black sapphire with black interior, loaded car with premium, sport, auto, nav, logic7, heated seats, comfort access, and hd radio. 48k miles.

Im planning on getting a new one this week... my choices are below...
they both dont have the upgrade sound system (will i be ok?)...

2010 335i sedan (just like what i have now but lighter interior)
Black Sapphire with Oyster Interior
Premium
Sport
Auto
Nav
Comfort Access
Heated Seats/Steering wheel
Sat Radio

2010 335I Sedan with BMW Performance Upgrade
Black Sapphire with Black Interior
Premium
M-Sport
Auto
Nav
Comfort Access
Heated Seats
Sat Radio

and I might jump to a 5-series too (528/535)... but i dont want to look old or look like taking my dads car...

Does anyone have any advice or information on the BMW Performance Upgrade? I think it has the Anthracite Headliner, Exhaust, Intake, More HP and Torque, etc.

Thanks in advance!

go for msport

Manboy · 03-03-2010, 01:53 AM

Agree, definitely go the Msport route. Also, Black Sapphire with Oyster Interior looks fantastic and with the Msport pack your ride will be complete.

Black on black is safe and boring IMO..

And dont forget: Stick shift only!

Both sound like they are well loaded, so I don't know that you can go wrong with this!

White_335I · 03-03-2010, 08:26 AM

I will go with the performance upgrade.

M-sport for sure!

sam2428 · 03-03-2010, 09:52 AM

Those two cars are nearly identical with the main difference being M-sport.

I think its safe to say that 99% of this forum will say go with the M-sport.

Did you really need to ask?

(not trying to sound like an ass or anything

, gluck with the new car!)

m-sport is a must!

M-sport and perfromance upgrades? what kinda question is that?

chopsinblack · 03-03-2010, 10:33 AM

i worried that the exhaust will be fun for the first few months...and ill get tired of it.

i figured most will go with the m-sport kit! haha
i'll have to run numbers and see how much of a difference in payment.
the performance upgrade is about a $5k add to the sticker!

the only downside to the performance car is its an automatic! it would be more fun with manual with the exhaust!

thanks for the opinions!

chopsinblack · 03-03-2010, 06:34 PM

i have decided to go with the Black Sapphire with Oyster Interior.

The m-package and performance upgrade is cool, but not the same with automatic, with those upgrades i want a stick!

So ill post pics soon!
Thanks for the help!

i have the base sound system.. should there be a need to upgrade the system... like tweeters or tweeters and a sub in the trunk?

chopsinblack · 03-19-2010, 11:38 AM

I have been driving the new 2010 e90 for about 3 weeks!

Just a few days ago, someone hit my front bumber and cracked it!!!
Got it fixed and repainted! Looks good. but why do poeple hit and run??!!
and my passenger sub is rattling like crazy on and off!!!

The car came with Potenzas, but should I switch to Pilot Sports??

Enjoying the car! I love the new Oyster Interior! Very clean!

Thanks for the advice!

EVERYBODY has black interior. The Performance pack is basically the new 335is I believe.
I cant believe so many people buy Nav.
