| ![]() Yes, the older F10 did not have Start-Stop, Eco Pro mode, etc and was being offered at 3 to 4 lacs off. Just wait for the new 3; you will be pleasantly surprised. She has grown in size and the cabin does have a lot more space. Last edited by ecclipse78 : 5th July 2012 at 22:38. |

| ![]() Yes I am waiting eagerly for the new 3 but I think pricing will be the most crucial factor between the 3 and 5 as whatever one might say a 5 series is still better. |

No you cannot say 5 is still better, I'm not even going to get into this. Regards, Last edited by S350L-E240 : 6th July 2012 at 11:29. | |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Any idea on what engine options will be available for the F30. I am looking forward to the 330d or 335i. Been waiting for the f30 for a while now. When do you think the bigger motors will be launched? |

| ![]() At the moment only 320d gets launched as CKD in 3 variants. 328i will be a CBU with Head-Up display. Not sure about a base petrol like 320i. |

| ![]() I have seen all the three variants personally. The Sport line does not have a sun roof. It's present only in the luxury variant. |

Sorry for not replying earlier, honestly bookings are not really valid as the car on paper does not exist but informally it gets done, and you can pay any amount as you like, don't worry even if you dont book there wont be a big wait for delivery there is enough inventory. And about specs, ecclipse78, is the god of it, he's seen it up close and personal. About prices, it's going to be a serious problem for a lot of people if posted right now but lets just say it's going to excite everyone, and will re define value for the segment just assume you are buying the old 3, paying little more and getting a lot more! Regards, | |

| ![]() Will get the spec sheets by next week and post them. BMW will never get rid of 'run flats'....its something they don't even want to discuss. The new 3 has been much redesigned; its much easier compared to the old one for entry and exit. Not quite that low and much better stance. The rear seat is also quite impressive and can take 2 adults very comfortably. ( I am a 6 footer and another 6 footer can sit behind me comfortably with more than sufficent leg room ). This was something seriously lacking in the old 3. Am sure this car will be a game changer in the segment. |
