My mom took a big jump and finally got into a new car. Thought it was a cool shot since it's basically the modern day "switch" for her. Still keeping the E46 until I have time to list it for sale. Hope she can keep up with all the tech. At delivery it showed an estimated 30mi on electric.

I'm happy for her. She seems excited about it.

Congrats!

One of the best combinations of exterior and interior colours in my opinion. Congratulations!

Thanks. The E46 is white over sand beige. This new beige is much better and durable. I ordered her cognac but this came in a few weeks early and she preferred this. If anyone is interested in Florida only for the cognac one in a few weeks just shoot me a PM. It does come with my discount through my CA.

Congrats! Car looks great. Could be just me but I much prefer the look of the non-msport LCI than the msport version.

Belated congrats! How did your mom enjoy the car so far? I've placed an order for the 330e too, still waiting for it.

I ordered phytonic blue on canberra beige, but I'm a bit worried of beige seats getting stains/dye transfers easily. Did you have any issue of that sort?

I have Canberra Beige Sensatec and Phytonic Blue in my 330e. It’s an awesome color combo.

Only 5000 miles and 4 months, but no color transfer yet. I did protect with 303 Automotive, and do a CarPro Inner QD every couple of weeks.

Just an update to this -- we did start to see some color transfer on the exterior bolsters, from where you slide across getting in and out. Probably, in part, because I should have re-applied 303 by now.

I upgraded my game to CarPro Inside, and it seems to come right off. I'm going to give them a really good clean and then reprotect.

Just like my wife brand new 330e in phytonic blue on canberra beige.

She is in love with her car. 1.4 li/100 km so far. If you use xtra boost, it will pull like mad.

Congratulation.

Congrats - I have had mine for a month and am just amazed at how nice the 3series has become. PS. The 18" wheels your Mom has is the smart choice - much better ride... I have the 19's and they are a bit firm. I dont mind really - but 18's are more efficient and better ride and less prone to pot hole issues. (The 19's are gorgeous IMHO though)

Congrats!

I had a ZHP before and it was such a great car.
