Model descriptions.

Can someone tell me where I can find the differences in the models?

I'm looking for the one that says the 325i comes with this.

The 325xi comes with the abouve plus these items.

Then the 330i comes with the above plus these items and the 330ix comes with the above and these itwems.

I hope you know what I mean.

Thanks

Check the product information booklet here:

It has all of the information provided to the dealers. Much more information and in a clearer format that can be found on the BMWUSA website.

Well... In the US, the 325i does not get:
- Chrome Trim (Window Sill, Kidney Grill, Front Spoiler, Exhaust Tip)
- Xenon Adaptive Headlights are not standard
- Upgraded Logic 7 is not standard
- Gets the 16" tires instead of 17" on 330i and different rims.
- Powerseats not standard on 325i
- Sports Package is different. 325i and 330i gets different wheels.

Edit: Added a photo showing difference of 325i and 330i exterior.

XI models come standard with headlight washers, so the "cold weather" package is cheaper on an XI than on an I.

XI suspension is about 1" higher.

Sport packages on an XI don't alter the suspension, it's only steering wheel, seat, and wheels/tires. XI sport packages still use all-season tires.

If you want summer performance tires on an XI, you have to pay additional money beyond the sport package for the further upgraded wheels.


I think all these things are true, regardless of 325xi or 330xi

It's definately not a whole inch higher, it's actually only 0.2" higher (If I'm remembering the product info correctly.

If you get a 3 series brochure from any dealer - the back of the brochure has a nice chart comparision of the 325i/xi, 330i/xi.

What exactly do you want then?

I think the Prod. Info pdf is excellent. Pretty much everything that you'll want to know is in there.

It's not set up to do what you're asking about that it comes with those features listed above and also these features. Many of the features on the 330 are completely different from 325, not just a additional item. For example, the Logic 7 stereo replaces the base stereo in the 325. It's not upgraded as much as replaces. The sunroof or power door/windows are standard on both. Not like the 330 has sunroof and the 325 doesn't have it or the 330 comes with the on-board computer while the 325 doesn't. Or the 325 comes with regular tires and a jack/spare while the 330 comes with RFTs.

Only thing similar are the seats in that 325s come with manual and 330s come with power seats.
