E92 328xi differance between usa

marc_punt · 01-31-2010, 07:24 PM

Hello,

i'm wondering what the differance is between a American E92 328xi and an European version, because i would like to buy one here in the states but I take it with me to Europe.

Thanks!

I don't believe the 328i / 328xi is sold in Europe! The 325i and 330i would be the closest available.

IRL-MN is correct, they do not offer the 328i in Europe, 318, 320, 325, 330, 335 are the petrol models if I'm not mistaken, so if you took one over you'd have one unique vehicle.

The main difference is the N53 engine (direct injection) and the price!
328i has N52 (230hp), European 330i has N53 (272hp).
Other differences are headlights (parking light is AE), no reflector on the front fenders, rear fog light.
