M Sports package on X Drive
Is it worth it?
I was getting the sports line and started considering the m sports package because i like the blue, but besides some styling, i don't really see the m sports package is worth it. According to the specs it adds an aerodynamic styling, what is that? and if you get the cold weather package, you have to choose between the steering wheels. Also for the US specs the fog lights are deleted (even though the picture shows it). Lastly, the x drive doesn't get the sports suspension, I'd have to add the dynamic handling package to get the m suspension. Any other thoughts or advice on this? |

i like the looks of the m-sport package which is what the aerodynamic styling is. front bumper, rear, side skirts. don't see the point of x-drive unless you live somewhere you use it a lot.

Don't know how important this is, but if you get M-Sport instead of Sport Line, you can get staggered wheels and performance tires in 18" size for no additional cost.
With Sport Line, you have to go up to additional cost 19" size to get staggered wheels and performance tires. Bruce |

I just ordered my 2013 335i xdrive, currently it's with the sports line.
My dealer allowed me to get the performance tires at no additional charge. I did get the 18" wheels that came standard with the sports package. In order to get the increased top limiter that came with the sports line (or m sports package for that matter) I had to get the summer tires or else it would have defaulted to the 130 mph standard. |

My understanding is the only real benefit of m-sport pkg is you can get staggered 18s with summer rubber. You get access to Estoril Blue, which most ppl on this forum really like. O/w it is just an interior / exterior trim pkg.
