I have a 320d e90 on the way, anyone own one yet? whats the verdict on the slighly differnet combo's?
Im looking forward to seeing it for real and having a slighlty diiferent look from my last M sport

You'll have to explain sport plus to me.

Playing spot the difference. I can see what looks like Anthracite Wheels ( I like but wouldn't choose), Blue Piping on the seats (I like. Can you get a choice of colours?White would be nice also) and aluminium trimmed pedals (I like).

Putting the Gloss Black Grilles on makes a big difference and I love the subtle difference the black badges make to my car.

I would agree with you and would love to see it in the flesh.

I was really keen on this but the lease companies I spoke to didn't have it on their systems. All those add ons for only £595 is an absolute bargain. The only shame is the lack of choice on the colours of the upholstery but I do reckon it will look the bees knees

I've gone for the E90 ED instead.

[leetennis]

Yeah lack of options was slightly disappointing, something that was meant to be different from a normal m sport will look the same as all the other sport plus!

[Lightsab3r]

Yeah, just looking at the configurator again, forgot that you could only choose three body colours as well; no choice on wheels or upholstery; only three choices of trim and the engine is 318 and not 320.

I remember why I didn't bother waiting as I got far better BIK on the ED (13% for three years) whilst the Sports Plus is 13/15/17 I think

Saw a black one the other day in the showroom... Blue Stitching doesn't really stand out, the darker wheels make them look smaller, but looks cool in white.

Looks fantastic.

Engine def comes in 320d but thats the largest engine for the sport plus

Yeah but I think I'm right in saying that this makes it quite a bit more expensive than a similarly specced ED, but I may be wrong.

Hi! Please view some pictures of my car. I like very much that slightly different look of the M-sport.

It's grabbing those last minute sales before new model next year...

[E92BSM10]

The blue piping looks good and so do the wheels

[leetennis]

I think the busines ED are discontinueing as i tried to get one.

sakis... car looks great, noticed you still have the suede! I really liked the suede in our old Msport and would certainly have considered keeping it if had the choice, but sport plus here only comes with dakota leather. Also cant tell if you have tints or not??

Keeping fingers crossed i have the new combox software!!! bound to have just missed out

Thanks! The leather was an £1500 option at here and i liked more the suede. It comes for free. There are no tints yet but i´m planning light tint to all windows except the windshield, maybe 50%. The winter is quite dark in here so i don´t want that darker tints. Also my car has rear windscreen sunblind and auto dimming mirrors, maybe the light tint is the best in that case.

I gave the Business Edition and Sport Plus a miss and started my spec with a stock 320d M. Too many limitations in spec with the promo models. I wanted a panoramic sunroof this time in lieu of leather so happy to go back to the alcantara. I also wanted Pro Nav and couldn't upgrade with the Business Edition. Also decided not to pay for metallic paint this time and stayed with white so the cash saved went towards a towbar. Mines due in a week so looking forward to my third 320d M in row!!

[rickwjenn]

Not sure if this helps, but here is a 335ix Coupe with M Sport built in July '10.

Just got it last night:

Congrats! Bluewater is so pretty

[Baby Dave]

Like the colour of the wheels,mine go that colour a few weeks after it's been cleaned

Theres a very obvious big drawback with these black/white LCI's....
