I think colour is the lest of your worries, she will love the 335i Convert no matter what colour the car is.

What is the final spec of your order? I thought all 3 series coupe comes with i-drive as standard in Australia.

I'm ordering it tomorrow most likely - reading what I have here you are correct the Nav and iDrive are standard which is good...

I'm still hodgy podgy on the options to get... she loves the active cruise control on my car so I will get her that and seat heaters because if I ever drive it work they are good at 4.30 in the morning... I'm thinking of going with an individual interior (I have time to wait b4 her bday) so i can get the better leather interior - other then that still quite undecided... your thoughts???

Today was a very good day for me... my car is now paid in full by the hospital as i get a company car and they allowed me to transfer the 5 series over

SO i can afford to option it out now as i have the extra money I save from paying for my car??? So don't be shy hit me with any ideas for the car???

Just wondering if you have any images of that interior tycoon??? Many thnaks in advance if you do

Ok, this is Individual, but you get the idea:

I'll look for more pics, not Individual and with beige interior...

M3 time

It will probably be ready for her next bday.

What are your current choices for the interior combination? I will go with Tycoon's suggestion, maybe have a 2 tone interior, beige and black leather interior with piano wood. Is ambient lighting standard?

One more thing, make sure your salesman/dealer knows it is a surprise for your wife, and make sure they remember it. The last thing you know is for them to send you a Christmas card saying "Merry Christmas, your 335i wont' be long"

Damn, i'm having hard time to find beige/black piano pics, but will continue to search and in the meanwhile, look at this, mate... Pure porn! Individual again:

If you have some extra cash, hand it over to guys at Individual dept...

edit: Piano Black is only available as Individual! You can order other black trim, called Walnut:

How about having these wheels for your 335i ?

Lol, they're BMW Performance parts and are they available down there i don't know, you have to ask your dealer about it. Should be available i think.

Those are at the moment best BMW wheels if you ask me...

BMW_Owner · 12-13-2007, 07:41 AM

I think they might upset the ride to much on Australian crappy roads - I'm going to use the individual program for the interior - I actually would like to see if its possible at all to change all the black plastic surrounding all the buttons and climate control knobs into alumimium so the interior is not to different to my 5er... I think that would look great!!! or even change it to paino black with that orange interior.... that would look great aswell

Could that be possible guys??? I'll speak to my dealer tomorrow
