Me too..............with iDrive/USB/Smartphone integration. I've said it before, and I'll say it again..........damn, I miss my '05 Interlagos Blue ZCP M3 more than any ///M3 that I've owned.

Let's be honest here, we're talking about up-market cars. No xenons, manual seats (..for which I don't really mind because at least my 11.5 M3 retained power lumbar and power side bolsters when BMW removed power seats as standard), etc. would lead to nothing but complaints amongst the forum population. The 'bare bones' car should be available, yes, but I don't believe that it should be the standard. |

The military pricing guide had it listed, but I'm not sure how accurate it is

20-way m sport seat.... how does it come? I only saw 10-way here, or 14 if you count lumbar support.
Highly doubt about 10 inch screen. From pics there's no difference between the regular f30. |

Gas guzzler tax is usually allotted to cars with average mpg under 22.5. Neither of these cars will come close to that.

I really despise all auto makers packaging of options. I would in no way want nav, pdc or a back up camera. I know how to use a map, and I certainly do not need pdc or a friggin back up camera in a mid sized sedan. It's a smallish car, not a damn 40' motor home.

The base price of the car has risen but BMW is including a lot more standard equipment, so all in all the price increase really isn't that great. I mean Nav alone was a $2100 option, deduct this from the base price and it really represents itself quite well.

I'm surprised they call the extended leather "full leather" since there is no leather on the bottom door panels, center console, nor the seat backs. These are wrapped in full leather in m5/6 models.

I think some of the standard features were taken from the M5/M6 sheet...or the intern putting this sheet together needs to be fired. BMW needs to get their act together...

Other than the Nav ($2100) there are still ~$4000 of the M3 price increase unaccounted for. If there is no GGT then ~$2700 would be understandable.
I do not think that these "M Dynamic Dampers" are even real as they were not mentioned even in the official introduction, only M Adaptive Suspension. Otherwise this is some jacked up price not comparable at all with any other BMW model in the last 5 years. Quote:

What was discussed was that BMW is using new names to old options, with some differences to justify the new names.
This new "Extended" Leather is the same "old" Leather option but with a small knee pad on the left side of the center console. The new "Full" Leather is the "old" Extended option but with leather on top of the dash and on the upper door panels/quarter panels. The positive note of this is that the "old" prices were kept. ![]() Quote:

The new car has -standard nav -powered seats -heated seats -hd radio None of which were standard on the e9x. Plus, the m3 coupe was like 62k in 2013, so this is not a 6000 dollar price increase as you are insinuating. The price increase is very small and the standard equipment is much more robust. Based on the released euro mpg, there will be no ggt |
