FINALLY ordered!

mattryan · 12-09-2010, 01:13 AM

2011 135i Alpine White on Coral Red with:

Premium package
Executive package
Premium sound
7-Speed double clutch

$57500 on the road so saved about $3800 should be here in mid February

One thing I've been debating was whether or not to get the park distance control? I live in the city and parallel park alot so it could come in handy? Does anyone have it and is it any good? One thing that I have yet to figure out is IF the power folding mirrors have been deleted for 2011 in Canada?

Congrats! Sounds pretty

If you do alot of parking in the city i would say it's a must have. It would suck to back into an unseen column, pole or something that you just can't see for one reason or another. But those are just my thoughts. If anything it's something to help resell the car at a later date. I can't help with the folding mirrors though, maybe somebody else can.

PDC is a worthwhile option for those that parallel park often. I have it and would not be without it.

I dont like how the sensors look on the bumper. I have been parallel parking for years, never had a problem. I say skip it. I also doubt it would have any real effect on resale.
