Interesting... I thought all M Sport cars got black stitching and they saved the fancy stitching for the M cars. I guess we'll find out soon enough because a lot of people got Estoril Matte trim.

True M cars get the Tri-color stitching. I was sure i saw a picture of blue stitching on one of these M sport cars...will search for it.

Classy and modern at the same time. I prefer 435 more for dual tail pipes from both sides which look better with M sport.

Can you provide some basis for this statement. Did you drive a similarly equipped F30 i.e. MSport, DHP etc., through all the various drive modes?

car looks awesome man - congrats! I'm sure it handles better than the f30 just based of the center of gravity alone, but they said the bushings were constructed differently on the 4er.

Also i did not pay close to what you see on the sticker

I paid $50,250 before subtracting loyalty and ultimate drive...another 1500 bucks off. $48750 does not sound to bad does it LOL
Do you mind sharing the lease deal you got?

Really nice!

Can't get over the fact that BMW:s are much cheaper in the US than in Europe generally and Sweden specifically...

That dead pedal + steering wheel + calipers = OMG I WANT! If only they fit on my E82. What other color calipers could you have gotten with the $650 option?

Only blue! If you want Red or Gold you can get the M performance brakes accessory but it's $2k and cannot be residualized.

That sucks. Still, I'm sure any of those colors would be SEXY! But $2k?

Yes, the 2014 N20/26 engine noise is a lot deeper. I work for a dealership and have a 13' 328i M Sport and the 14's sound so much better!!! Sounds like a resonator in the dash similar to a GTI/GLI.

I've been a long time lurker here since I got my first 335i in 2008 and I just ordered my 435i m sport a couple weeks ago in the same mineral gray. I just have to say that wow your car looks amazing. The M sport package to me is an absolute must, it takes the front end from pretty plain to just ferocious looking. The mineral gray really sets this car off, I initially had it ordered in black until I saw the BMW NA launch photos of the mineral gray 428i and immediately switched to it. After seeing your photos, I'm glad I did.
