328i 2008 coupe or 2009 sedan?
Which would you prefer?
Also, what option would you absolutely not live without on a preowned 328? I am looking for sport, premium, Xenon on sedan, what other option should I require? |

Found an inexpensive montego blue sedan with M-sport and premium but no Xenon....I want to keep this car for 5 years so am not going for it.... why would someone leave hid lighting off of a car like that?

You can always get a Xenon conversion done. The 2009+ LCI sedans look soo nice! Especially with Montego blue, it seems like its a pretty rare colour here.
If I were you, I would go with an LCI sedan, just because I find it a bit more practical and I just prefer sedans overall. Different people may have different opinions

Why is the M-sport so desirable over the regular sport package? It doesn't look dramatically different in the pictures.
Also, where I live there are so many more sedans than coupes.... I do love the look of the lci sedan though.... Last edited by Rollo`; 08-13-2012 at 10:47 PM.. |

2009 Sedan. It's a newer car, you get the updated iDrive (If you go for that option), and it's an LCI updated model.
For sure get: Sport Premium Xenon Then you can go from there: M-Sport Nav Comfort Access |

Wow...surprising answers so far.
Cool things about coupes: always Xenon lights great 18 inch wheels on sports almost every coupe I find has logic 7 audio I do love the stying of the new sedan. About the lights..you can't retrofit Xenon lights without using capacitors or having dash lights on can you? |

I found another montego blue m-sport without Xenon's...I just can't do without them.
I don't think I'm getting i-drive....too rare to find it with all of my other requirements in a reasonably priced package. What if I get a 2009 coupe instead? then coupe or sedan? |

For me Logic 7 makes a big difference. My previous BMW had the base system, and I now have L7, it makes such a difference when driving the car, listening to tunes.
Bring your favorite CD when test driving, and compare the difference for yourself. |

Get the 09 Sedan. I was in your same position and I'm so glad I got the sedan. The facelift makes such a huge difference. The coupe didn't get the facelift until 2010.
Logic 7 is amazing if you can find it. Like AlanAZ, my previous BMW also only had the base. The upgraded sound system is pretty good. Xenons were a requirement when buying my car. I found one with them. It makes such a huge difference.

I am definitely not getting a car with base sound..has to be at least hi-fi but am trying to track down logic 7.
I found another blue M-sport, this one seemed to have everything then I realized it was missing Premium! who would get L7, xenon, M-sport and leave off premium? |

I believe the M-Sport comes with LeMans Blue. Dont think the Montego blue was offered with M-Sport.
