Last round of checking, anyone selling his/her 335 sedan alpine white/black? 2008-2009 preferred.

I'll move onto my only choice if no alternatives.

[phawx]

What would your "only choice" be?
Picking a used coupe? Or going to the stealership for a new sedan?

[notabug]

if no second hand available i guess i could only submit myself to the stealership....

I'm sure there are second hand 2009 335i sedans around, maybe not with the exact colour and finish you want, but I think they are out there. Look around, ask your friends who know reputable second-hand dealers. I know a pretty reliable dealer in Kowloon Exhibition Centre. Or maybe you are a "yuo chin lou" or "spoiled rich kid" where money is not a problem for you, in that case you can just get a brand new one from BMW HK, hahaha. (Just kidding!).

Since a 09 2nd hand 335i still asking for 55k+, why not get a new LCI 335i with all the options and color you want. Not mention the 2 years warranty~~

MY2009 is post LCI, but I doubt anybody would release the post LCI ones that early...but if you want the Pre-LCI, I don't understand why it needs to be 2009.

[notabug]

aye, I was interested in the post LCI, kind of like to have some LED on the car so 2009+ would make me 1 less thing to think about. also, I like the latest i-drive controller more, smaller knob with the short cut keys around and on the knob.

Not all 335i come with i-drive, you better get the new one with everything you want~~! LCI do look better

apparently e92 has this offer too now, iirc

[Lexi]

i say, think about whether or not you want to buy the car now... I have the same dilemma... Especially the sedan, it's going to be renewed (completely) in 2012... that's just 2 years before your car looks old. Do you 'really' want the car now?

Post LCI is hot... but the new 3... mmmmm

The best is yet to come~~ I say you get it now and enjoy it than wait forever......

[Lexi]

I am trying to wait until next year... looks like most of my purchases are going to be next year.

Besides, the deals will get better! (like getting the car a month before the new one arrives )

Yeah, good point, the new 3 series (F30) will be coming soon, so maybe you can wait until then, if you are not in that much of a hurry.

However, getting a 335i soon may give you a better deal then wait for the F30 to come out. I've read many of the car ads, there are second-hand 2009 LCIs around. Also, I think whether a car looks old is less important then how it drives and whether you like it, which is the most important thing. I mean, there are plenty of E46s around and I still like it very much even as if it has been replaced by the E90 for the past five years.

[notabug]

but I've been searching 28car/car8 for the past 2 months can't find much LCI 335i sedan at all. where else you find the second hand you mentioned?

[Wolfman]

Well, I guess you haven't search hard enough. I'm pretty certain those cars are out there.

[Lexi]

actually I would agree with 'notabug', post LCI 335 is quite rare on the second hand market. If you want though, my friend's uncle owns a second hand dealer, and can help.

Do you want the info? (it may or may not help)

Well he could always consider shipping it back from the UK - probably not a bad choice!
