New 328i

ken530i · 09-21-2011, 07:56 PM

Pulled the trigger tonight!
328i e90, sport pkg, cold wthr pkg, prem, pkg, HK sound, xenon, smartfone - alpine white w. oyster/black
MSRP $43.9
Bought for $38.0

Had a 2009 328xdrive. Someone hit me and the car has been in the shop for 3 months -- sub frame replacement.

the rear wheel sport is absolutely no comparison to the xdrive! it is a totally different car, handling like a bmw should. the xdrive falls short.

Now, just need to get it broke in.........

Congrats! Great price.. Almost the same price I paid for mine with slight difference in option, but I bought mine under BMW military program. My is option: 328i, M sports package, convenience package. Factory ordered at the price of $39,000.

Now let's see some pics!

Pics!

Nice pickup ... good option list. h/k sound is something I see missing from a lot of newer BMWs, I would not get a BMW without it! However BMW does not tune it right from the factory, try manually setting it yourself. Big thread here:

Consider trying a variant of these settings:

I've experimented with a lot of different setups and like that one the best. Don't be afraid to reduce the frequencies (nearly all other setups turn them up) - just compensate with volume.

Congrats man! Enjoy it.

Thks guys!
This is one fantastic car! The handling is unbelievable. Steering is so much tighter than xdrive. It is "seriously" hugging the road. And, the HK sound is great! I had HIFI in the '09, could not stand it and replace the amp and speakers. HK surpasses the aftermarket mod.

mr_milo · 09-23-2011, 04:59 PM

And congrats on the car!
