ahhh .. the sports package ...

i wanted the wheels and seats that come with the sports package, but i don't have a place to store summer tires (assuming i'd switch between summer and winter tread) ... imo, bmw should offer the star spoke 162 wheels in a 4X18X8 option instead of the 18X8 front, 18X8.5 rears ... but there must be a reason ... handling? geometry? ... anyway, the 162 wheel design makes me drool. mine came with the star spoke 159, which ain't shabby, but it's also not the 162.

and those sports seats ROCK .... adjustable thigh bolsters ... yeah, baby. that's one thing the 335i with premium lacks ... the standard seats are excellent and comfortable, and the leather is plush ... but i'd like more lateral support for hard cornering.
