Did he ever get back to you? My dealer says he can get the black wheels on an M240i, he didn't mention discounts as he's trying to sell me an M3 but I'm not sure I can live with the size or turning circle

BMW with the usual and same bullshit they did with the F30 LCI claiming larger kidney grilles and lower intake grilles while in reality nothing changed.
Here's a comparison from the new configurator and the old one. |

For me the 3/4 series is a bit too big. I think the size of the 2 series is perfect for a fun drive. |

I doubt they will change the kidney grille size for some models and some not too as that will cause the grilles to be interchangeable, especially their black M-Perf grilles. I checked the sport-line model in the configurator and the kidney grilles are exactly the same size and the outer air intakes seem only a couple mm's larger. |

On another note are you checking the configurator on bmw.de? I noticed that the manual transmission is no longer offered on the m240i on the bmw.de site. |

Yeah I noticed that too. Not only the M240i, but also the 230i and 220i. It seems to only be available on the 218i, 218d and 220d. I hope it's only missing from the configurator and not in real life.

Said I'll have it second week in September, just hope I like the colour, they had a 4 series in sunset orange and it looked nice in the sunlight so it should be okay

Awesome.. I am thinking about ordering the Orange too. I think there was a study done that Orange actually resells pretty well (found here). I may be ordering this weekend! Does anyone know when the online configuration will be available? I would love to see the different options come together before I buy it...

I just took delivery of my 2018 M240i. A quick peek under the car shows that there are still two resonators in the mid pipe, and sadly to me, the exhaust sound seems way too quiet, just as so many others have reported for earlier models. However, I don't have an earlier model handy to do a true A-B comparison.

Congratulations. It looks like you're one of the first in the US to get the 2018 LCI model. I'm looking into a CPO M235i vs. just going for it and ordering a LCI M240i.
Can I ask a few questions regarding your 2018 LCI model? LED HEADLIGHTS - Can you please confirm if indeed the LED headlamps are indeed projectors NOT reflectors? - Are the front turn signals LEDs as well or are they still incandescent bulps? - How is the night time performance of these LED headlights? - Did you option for the Adaptive LED? LED TAIL LIGHTS - Are the turn signals also LEDs? Amber or red? SIDE MIRRORS - Is the manual folding option still available for the side mirrors? I didn't see BMW USA website listing it in their standard specs. DRIVING ASSISTANCE PKG - Did you opt for the Driving Assistance Package for $500? I'm trying to understand what's the difference between the DAP $500 vs. Park Distance Control a la cart option for $800 Thank you @havinfun ! |

In Summary: Rearview Camera - standard. DAP Package (Active Driving Assistant + Speed Limit Info) - $500. PDC (front+rear parking sensors) - $800 There is more info in the 2018 order guide thread, but it may not be correct either as it lists "5DP - Parking Assistant" as part of the PDC option, however it's not listed on the BMW online configurator and people that ordered that option are reporting that the parking assistant option was removed from their actual build. http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1380813 http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1405680

I appreciate that they made some features standard and they pared down the pkgs to just two (the best being Premium Package). But the DAP vs. PDC a la cart option is just playing games and moving things around: giveth and taketh. Audi is guilty of this but I guess I shouldn't be surprised BMW would do it too. |
