stressdoc · 03-14-2006, 07:27 AM

How about the DCT tranny that 'GregA' posted?

Be careful you do not get yourself censured!

They are all either manual or Automatic, with the automatic option number the same as the E90 normal Auto

Probably dealer launch cars

E90Fleet · 03-14-2006, 08:00 AM

Also appears all E92 may have Xenons

EnI · 03-14-2006, 08:16 AM

Yes, dealers in Europe have the ordering catalogues - for showroom cars. Here they can order 325i or 335i.

That matches with this Tine's info:

I was also told embargo on the info ends in late April - I guess pre-ordering starts at that time.

I just had to do it,

So, just like the e90s in France then, at least those built after March 1.

bimmer4me · 03-14-2006, 08:46 AM

What the heck is "High Beam Assist"??

I wonder if the 325Ci is going to get all these goodies standard? And then the price? They might be adding things like this to make the coupe "more exclusive" (and hence increase the price)

Great find :-)

Paul330d · 03-14-2006, 08:52 AM

e90 prices here in France went up on March 1 by €400, but the cars now include the Pro SatNav which was a €3,000 option before.

They are probably throwing in SatNav now because their pricing has become uncompetitive, and/or because SatNav as a technology is becoming far more affordable & people are opting for aftermarket mobile solutions like TomTom.

It would REALLY kill resale values if they started adding proff nav to all E90's from September.

Bimmerista · 03-14-2006, 09:34 AM

I hope that idrivel does not become standard on e90 (presumably if satnav is on it will be through IDrive ?).

Saddle brown leather will look terrific, can't wait to see live.

We now also pretty much have confirmed that that the 335 engine is an extension of the e90/e92 line and not a replacement.

It's all good.
