I think it is only styling changes, it probably comes with standard 3-series engines, not sure which one, probably the 330 and/or 335.

i have to say i never really liked the E90 3 series, as it appeard to be a step back compared not only to E46 but to E36 as well, designwise. But i have to admit this postlift version with this kit looks very nice.

ver fancy steering wheel... good for taking your eyes off the road, specially with that lap time feature... probably a head-up display like in the M6 would have worked best... nice looking though...

the footage of the video is very Top-Gear like...

bmw also have X-Drive, witch is better than Audi's Quattro...but they prefer rear wheel drive...

Only p*ssies go "ooh I can't control my car i better get me some quattro so I don't skid off during wintertime"

yes but the p"ssies keep driving while u wait for spring. Xdrive is not even a 4wd system. It is rwd based it comes on only when slip is detected. Bmw didn't want to sacrifice handling so they came out with this to give Audi a headache.

lol Xdrive is a system that lets you swap power from rear to front to your preference...So your not stuck with 30 70 ratio. We have alot of uninformed people.

great stuff. bmw is bmw. nothin beats em. im just back from the l.a auto show and the new 7 series is the best thing i liked there. it looked amazing in person and that interior was to die for. and of course the lp 560 spyder was my favorite.

Well done. Love the carbon fibre. My two bits on awd: We have snow 2-3 months of the year. I have an A4 w/quattro and a 330i w/x-drive. Quattro definitely superior, boys.

Coke better than pepsi.

That track really reminds me of the topgear track..maybe the same?

and IMHO pepsi is better than coke.

"Quattro definately superior than than Xdrive...boys". In the old days Audi used to have the best 4 wheel - maybe but times have changed and in this instance the most sophisticated most intelligent 4 wheel system is the best which obviously is the X drive system on the X6 which all the top car testers have outrightly hailed. Look, rally is the race category where the car with the best 4 wheel system should compete and for obvious reasons Audi is 'loudly'missing there. Quattro is old sh!t - X drive is the "Wow" thing today.

Nothing "WOW" about it. I trust you have it? Regret the option on my 3-series. X-drive is also problematic resulting in lower consumer rating for 335ix vs 335i.

Yay! Now BMW buyers have the choice to make their cars look like a hidious M3 with M6 styled rims! Love the steering, looks like it came from a 120i now with a timer and shift indicator to see how long you can take to reach 62mph. I wonder how much it costs to have BMW performance written all over your car with bits of carbon fibre, oh dear! Buying it in black means no one will even see all that "bling"... what a pity!
