Yesterday I took delivery of my 435i Luxury line.
Coming from an E92 335i, ZPP
As I now have another sports tuned weekend driver I thought I would get a "more civilized" 4 coupe

Ride is softer, but can be equally firm if you select sport+
No staggered wheels/tires, maybe some future cost savings.
The wood and the saddle stitched leather really give it an upscale feel.
Still as fast, better planted on the road, you sure can tell the center of gravity is lower.
Only thing I can figure out, how to have something cool show on the screen (I did not order nav.)

I did get the LED lights, much much superior to Xenons (in my opinion)

Love it!

Very nice. Congrats. I actually like the silver side holes

Congratulations! Could you elaborate on the LED lights a bit? Is the visibility better than xenons?

The LEDs are whiter, they shine farther and the Automatic high beam works fairly well. I think it even turns on high beam on one side only when needed.

Congratulations!, beautiful 435!!

I thought all new 3/4 series have the same dash. On yours I don't see the digital Eco meter in the bottom of the tachometer? You have an analogue gauge there... What is the diff?

That dash doesn't have the extended cluster.

I see. Thanks for clearing that up. Here in Canada I think it's standard in 35i models...

Tech package will have extensive instrument cluster.

SO DOES THE NAVIGATION OPTION

Congratulations!

That is correct I did not order nav or the tech package, thus I do not get the extended.
I also think that I do not have bluetooth streaming and voice command. I am not sure if this due to not having the tech package or I need to work on setting up. Reading the manual (parts of it) today
:-)

Beautiful car, don't see very many 435 Luxury Lines around here. I think it looks great though, would love to see some more pics if you get the time.

I saw your comment about adding something custom to the LCD display. I sympathize and miss that feature, which is easy to access in my wife's 2013 Accord. We loaded custom wallpaper via stored jpg files from the USB link. It was nice to be able to do that - the data displays and menus just overlay the uploaded scene. I have an m-series 435i and don't have Nav either. If anyone suggests a way of adding your own pix to the LCD display, please let me know. I'm totally happy with the coupe anyway - have fun.
