Thank you so much for posting the pdf!

I am sad that the executive package isn't as cheap as it is on the M4, but it still saves money compared to 2017 if you were to get the adaptive LEDs.

What the heck is M Driver's Package?! Strange that it doesn't say.

Wow an automatic $3K discount for a ED. Why is it that Canadians don't get a discount on the ED?

The executive package is only $110 more than a comparably equipped M4 with extended leather.

Example:
M4:
executive package - $2100
(pulls in Park distance control) - $750
extended leather - $950
Heated steering wheel - $190
Total - $3990

M3:
executive package - $4100
(includes park distance control)
(includes extended leather)
(includes heated steering wheel)
Total - $4100

Differential - $110

Not too bad of a deal IMO.

Also, FWIW, my advisor just emailed me and said he got his allocation in for the '18 M3 and the order is able to be placed, although he said the pricing was 'blocked' right now.

Thats not bad. Thanks fir the breakdown.

The M3 ZEC has ~$240 more equipment than the M4 ZPX.

8TH SLI in the M4 ZPX seems to be a no cost feature in the M4 (KAFAS camera hardware included), which in theory would mean that 5AS may be coded without paying for it in the M4. 8TH + 5AS is a $500 option in the M3 but 5AS only in the M4 is still $500.

OF Hero · 06-10-2017, 05:57 PM

Yeah the $4100 is not a bad deal for the exec pack ASSUMING you were going for extended leather to begin with.

That might sound silly but I'm sure there are more than a few people who wanted to get the speedcloth and save a few bucks...you CAN do that with an M4 and get the savings. But you have to pay full exec pack price for an M3 even if you opt for the speedcloth. But then again the inclusion of adaptive lighting seems to offset all this anyway.

The $1500 price hike to base MSRP is the more disappointing point.

I sucked it up and did speed cloth with exec, had leather in my m4 and feel the speed cloth is much better wearing

I don't like how on the M3 you can't do adaptive LED as a standalone option like how it was for MY 15-17. I'm not interested in HUD or heated steering wheel. Also not a fan of PDC since the holes in the bumper it has makes it looks terrible to me.

Encanto · 06-10-2017, 08:33 PM

So you want to pay $1900 for LEDs that swivel instead nothing for LED that do not swivel...

Yes, I was willing to, to each their own. Didn't care for perks of executive package but I like the adaptive lights for some windy SoCal roads

1000% adaptive led is worth it, I had non adaptive led on my 340 and their output is worse than halogen

Is there a code to get the leather dash if you get individual leather such as ZAP5 Amaro Brown Extended Merino Leather?

I see that it is 2550 vs the full leather at 2650.

Maybe I am missing something?

Standard headlights don't swivel? I thought the only difference was the adaptives have auto high beams and have the updated angel eyes. The auto high beams in the US are nerfed anyway, they don't independently move up and down like Euro spec.

Encanto · 06-10-2017, 11:09 PM

5A2 is just LED headlights without any adaptive cornering.

XT1 is the option code for the leather dashboard (see the "Priority 1 Options" section at the very end of the pricing guide). I think it's added automatically with the Individual Extended leather options at no extra charge.

Perfect, thanks! Some amaro brown with the black will look classy.

I feel the exact same. I also really also dislike the look of those hole snippets on my bumper.

Did they finally get rid of those awful headlight washers on the exec package? I also REALLY did not like that.

back up camera is standard? cool ( after bashing the executive pack haha)

Also, are the MY18 f80 residuals and MF out?

Wait, so individual extended leather with a no cost individual leather dashboard is $100 cheaper than regular full leather? What extra do you get with the full leather?
