e93 but no sport suspension, deal or no deal

sdiver68 · 10-22-2008, 03:38 PM

I currently have an 07 335i ZSP sedan coming off lease. I have found a below invoice deal on an '08 e93 335 I am considering. It has everything I want EXCEPT....ZSP

I'm estimating best case $1.5 - $2K to have 'at least' sport package handling including install. Something like KWv1 + sway. Street oriented performance handling on Mid-West roads, no track days.

Agree? Disagree?

Yes, I know I also give up sport seats, paddle shifters

, and the wheels...all things to consider versus ordering an 09.

IMHO, with a purchase of this magnitude, if it doesn't have a major option (ie ZSP) you want, don't get it

Sport Package was the one option that was a must have for me.

Agreed.

Thanks!

I don't know what it is with the e93, but for my e90 no sport meant no oil cooler.
Sport was a must.
You get a better steering wheel,better seats, better wheels, etc.

Theoretically you could wait for BMW Performance to release a suspension kit for the E93. Or maybe extend the lease and wait for the tii.
