The 2022 digital cluster integrated in dash looks much better in my opinion. Overall the interior and exterior of the base 230i is great and makes a great daily driver! Affordable performance oriented luxury coupe with elegant design.
In all honesty, how reliable are these 230? i know you represent the BMW Dealer so im not sure how honest you can be. 😀 .But your honest answer would be greatly appreciated.
No M Sport brakes with that M Sport Package...2022s had them. Can see them on the BMW Configurator, but maybe they're an option (as he states for $650) via dealer check boxes. I love this car!!!
How long does it take using BMW's online website builder to purchase and be delivered? I built one for $40K (USD)...and a local dealership has a 2-series sitting on their lot for MSRP $52K (similar build). Hmmm, curious what the mark up is for.
Well the BMW online builder is just a tool. You will still need to order from a dealership. The dealership car most likely has more MSRP options on it plus the dealer fees. You would have to look at the sticker sheet to know the full difference.
I already know and have used the positive and negative terminals for the battery under the hood/bonnet -- but where is the battery physically located? Is it under the floor in the boot/trunk?
the website is a useful tool but not always 100% accurate. Something might not be showing but that doesn't mean it is actually removed at the factory level.
BMW has jumped the shark with iDrive 8. WAY too much going on there. And they're already obsoleting it by moving to Android OS for iDrive 9, which is imminent - which will piss off people who just got the "latest" then find out that it's already being updated. Unpopular opinion: Peak iDrive was iDrive 6 or 7. Either does everything you need it to do without all the fluff, without taking away the hard buttons for HVAC, etc. And the 8.8" screen is PLENTY big, without overwhelming the entire dash.
@@Lospollos24 I am very happy with the old version. I really don't like the new tablet. If this is the new BMW style I don't think I will buy anymore BMW. It's sad bc my and I had 5 BMW in the last 12 years

Love both colors, but that Brooklyn Grey is my favorite!

Curious! I have a 2023 230xi M sport. It doesn’t have the M highlighter. Can it be coded in?
no
The daylight design seems to be changed. 0:46
It became short and simple.
This is not bad, but the previous design might be better for me.
not sure what you mean

Yes it's in the trunk
I am so excited my is black metallic arrived before Christmas ❤🎉❤
Are they not going to make gear shifter anymore?

I don't understand. These 2 colors aren't even available anymore on the online builder. Wtf is BMW doing removing the 2 nicest colors?

I hate that the 230 has m highlighters….
these look better than the m2 lol
I can't stand the big tablet. No more BMW in my garage. I love my 230i with the old dashboard.... New style? Disgusting
Sounds like your mad you got the old version with the small peasant tablet
