Side by side with the old 3er:



New 335d with M package
Very good looking...the back almost looks like a completely different car now.

Very bad quality pics,what a shitty phone u've got

Yeah, the pics actually appear to be decent enough to watch, who would have thought....only a bit small perhaps...oh well

Just got the news that the papers of my car were sent to the leasing company today. Next step is that they will have to get my license plates and send those to the dealer and then I can pick up my car. I am guessing/hoping in a week from now I will be able to go and get it. I'm counting every second now . If it takes longer i will just go to the dealer to have a look at it.....

One Sedan and one Touring, same color as the car from the press photos. Great color btw.
You are right about the interior, not much different from my father's E90. Some buttons with chrome is the difference I spotted. If there are any other differences then its very difficult to notice it.

The exterior - WOW
I'm extremely satisfied, best facelift I have ever seen from BMW.
The hood, the whole front, the rearlights and the new sidemirrors. It gives the car a whole new presence, almost like its a new model.
I think the Touring looks better than the Sedan and this is probably first time I think so. The car doesn't even need the M-package to look good, bloody amazing if you ask me.

I'm honest when I say this - its the best looking car in the segment. It even beats the C-class with the integrated star in the front.


I have to give it to BMW, they really succeed to make me fall in love in the car once again. Absolutely gorgeous, with or without the M-package.

Has anyone seen the new interior color, Chesnut Brown Dakota Leather? or I believe it is called Red Brown in Germany.

[BMW///MPower]

Yes I did, the presentation model at the dealer here had it. It looks nice and all the pics in the European brochure are from a car with that color of leather interior. Looks nice and classy. The color in the pictures is about the same as IRL. It is slightly lighter then the terra leather. My mother in law has the terra leather in her car.

Thank you. I had Terra in my 2006 E90, I am expecting Chestnut to have more red than Terra. All of the pictures I have viewed show Space Grey & Saddle or Blue Water and Oyster. Where can I find the European catalogue. I am want to order Space Gray with Chestnut or Saddle.

I've got one here but that won't help you a lot will it? Problem is that you don't seem to be able to download it anymore like you could till a few months ago. I've been searching but I can't find a pdf.

Is Chestnut Brown (rotbraun) a good match for Space Grey? What exterior color did they show with Chestnut? Thank you.
