What specs did you order?
Placed my order on Saturday after much deliberation between brands and cars. This is my first Beemer so I'm very excited.
I ordered a Jet black 118i automatic with: Black Dakota leather with red stitching Sport trim with aluminium and high-gloss black inserts, 17" alloys Business sat-nav Xenons w headlight washers (Aus requirement to have washers with xenons) Full integration for iphone Floor mats (thrown in for free!) Harmon/Kardon soundsystem Total came to just over 60k and I haggled hard and got it to 56k with free floor mats. Not bad for a car on sale for 4 weeks! It pays to show how serious you are about signing the dotted line and how quickly the price falls once you stand up and say no thanks to the 59k then 58k then 57.5k :-) Not at all excited about a 4 month wait though!!

In Australia these are fairly expensive but they have a lot of gear standard compared to other countries like foglights, parking sensors, cruise control, rain sensing wipers, light sensing headlights, climate control and I think storage package are all standard on the 118i/118d. The 116i has little standard! I didn't order the sunroof because I'm quite tall and I couldn't fit properly in the demonstrator - that inch or say actually made all the difference!

None of the matallic colours really caught my eye in the way Le Mans blue did when i was specing up my current 120i M-sport. Agree red on the old car didn't look that special, although i don't recall ever seeing it on an M-Sport, which makes a big difference on the old one.

When money is less of an object i'll be whacking leather and nav in too, hopefully in my next one The only thing that puts me off about xenon lights is whenever you see someone with them in your rear view, you can garentee they will be using them to intimidate you about 3 feet off your bumper. Mind you they are usually attached to the front of an Audi too.

Great fun with a F20 forum where f20-enthusiasts can share thoughts, discuss etc so I decided to join! most forums discussing F20 in any context end up in 10 pages rampage about how awful and ugly the car looks, but i rekon people here appreciate the f20!

This is my spec: - sport line - black cloth-interior w red stitching - fog lights - xenon - 17 " alloy Y380 - rain-sensor - automatic de-blinding rear-view-mirror (uhm sorry for bad english?) not that neccessary since the windows are tinted but it came with a package - PDC back - cruisecontroll - bluetooth w USB - HIFI soundsystem - black mirror-caps - tinted windows - BMW live looking like this: |

auto-dimming on the side-mirrors aswell would be optimal though =) atleast when you drive most of the time in complete darkness like I do this time of year.
I'm the only one who ticked the "bmw live" option? at the moment it gives you weather and rss-feed on the screen, so you get something to look at while stuck in traffic I'm thinking they might expand the number of features later on... |

Very nice. In Australia at the moment there is limited stock available. I was trying to get one delivered for Dec with Business Sat Nav, but told they only started shipping Sat Nav in November (Jan arrival). Surprised to see you have car already with the Pro Sat nav. I assume Pro Sat Nav available in first production, not like Business Sat Nav.
Anyway, picked up 118i from Dealer stock - , White, Sportline, Auto, Leather, PDC, + had 2 other options - the High Gloss Shadowline and Aluminium trim. Would of liked Sat Nav and Rear Camera (become a lazy parker). Quote:

My 118i will be delivered next week in Hong Kong. So looking forward to it!
Specs: F20 118i "vanilla" (non-sport or urban-line) in midnight blue 8-speed auto Leather multifunction steering wheel Parking sensors Bi-xenon headlights Black Dakota leather seats Fog lights 16" alloys v-spoke style 378 All these options are standard in the base model in Hong Kong except I had to pay extra for the metallic paint (quite expensive at HKD11,300 or USD1,450). |
