220iA Mineral Grey (Just recieved)
Hello everyone,
I just recieved my 2015 220iA, yes a 2.0T (184hp), that is because I am a member from Mexico, and fortunately we have that option (wich I can afford). I am writing in order to hearing your very valuable opinions about this base model I hapily bought. For most of you, specially the ones in the US, this might be an underpowered engine, but for me is just right. The Price was around US $32,500 (taxes included), and I ordered in Mineral Grey (and matching mirror caps-wheels) with sensatec black interior and the 8 speed auto. The standard equipment is very similar if not the same as the us 228 (bi-xenon, bluetooth, 17" runflats, start/stop, reverse sensors, light/rain sensors, and so on. Hope to learn a lot from all of you. Regards |

Nice Car. Nice options.
I purchased a 13' 320i in july 13'. I optioned out my car in a very similar way in comparison to yours. I don't find the car to be much slower than my 3.0L 6 cyl 128i convertible. (BMW claims 6.7 128i 0-60 & 6.9 320i 0-60) I think 6.9 was the best time reported for the 320i...but that's not bad at all...It rides & handles like a BMW not a Nissan altima or something. No regrets on going for a 320i over a 328i. Great daily driver car that always gets the job done and looks slick in Sapphire Black. P.s. My next car will be a 228i xdrive Sparkling Brown convertible though. Hence why I mainly post in the 2 series forum

Nothing wrong with getting the 220i!
I love the 20i engine. It's superb!

P.S. How is fuel efficiency for the 320? I think I´ve been too much time staring at the car -lol- with the engine on and that reflects in the computer numbers. |

About the mirror caps-wheels matching color... What do you sincerely think? I am getting used to them (I now like´em), but at first, I tought It was too "audiesque" wich I definitely don´t intend to. Regards! |

Personally, I really like what you did with the mirror-caps! It differentiates your car and also matches with the whole grey/silver theme.
