If you are willing to pay for it, I am sure Auto Bavaria can import one for you from Germany.

A G20 330i Luxury spec with the bells & whistles as you desire.

The M340i is a superb car. Just a level below a full M car.

No kidding right? It is an hnnnggghhhh car. Alas I can only afford 330i. But I am planning to put body kits on them sometime soon. We will see how

The 3L B58 has a lot of room to grow compared to our B48. But what to do? My wallet only goes so far, and having BMW Malaysoa directly import these cars on an individual basis is so not economical

If RM380k vs 330i's RM330k I can accept la. But RM550k? gila can buy Porsche 718

The 330i looks pretty good in its stock form, what else will you add to it ?

If I had one, I would do the following :-
1. Change those no so nice 18' rims
2. Add a CF boot lip
3. Change the stock chrome rimmed kidneys to blacked-out kidneys

Just install the M-performance parts la! About 30k if I don't change the wheels. Or RM2k if go non-original parts laugh.gif I also dont like changing rims, they are not only expensive, if you don't get lighter ones you are spending so much money for "just looks"; also since they are very important to the safety of the car, it is best if we only get good quality ones - you can't go wrong with BMW rims

Most important ones would be:

1. BLACK kidney grill
2. Paint the wheels black
3. Black side mirror covers (not necessarily M-performance covers, just paint or wrap it black?)

M-performance:
1. Boot lip
2. Side skirts
3. Front splitter
4. Diffuser
5. Maybe side sticker

I saw this kit installed on the Sunset Orange and it was stunning!!! Black on Orange notworthy.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

I would go without the front lower splitters, and the rear diffusers too.
The front splitters will be at high risk of being destroyed in the many "off-JKR-spec" speed bumps in Malaysia and also the overly steep ramps in many KL shopping malls. If these were original M stuff, then imagine your heart pain if this happens.
Overdressing up an already handsome looking car actually makes it ugly and also less practical.
Just my 2 cents bro.
