Very impressive show, the crowd was really excited when the F30s were driven onto the runway! Don't miss it if you've the chance!

yes, it was very impressive although i was wondering what has the selected few sports demo got to do with the car.....

anyhow, it was a very well done event.....kudos to BMW Malaysia and their organiser. Oh ya, thanks BMFive (JCKL) for the invite!

Good to see some forumers like Irwan, Berg, Elwine30 ( & his cars & dad ) plus Kevster there as well....


my comment on car? Nice but I wish the front seats are not so flat! ( no lateral support at all )


last of all, the way they spend on such launches is......surely billed back into the car's price somehow

Agree... lack the tugged-in sense of security feel, obviously also due to the wider cabin. Tested the Luxury line, the wobbly suspension and light steering make matter worst, despite 4 modes suspension.. very disconnected feel. The Sport line is much better.. need to pump up the waist support to the max and of course the sport suspension helps a lot in the corners.. haha! :4:

There's no 4 modes suspension? It's not like the F10. F10 has adjustable dampers. On our CBU spec F30, the button only controls the throttle and the steering... suspension is fixed. Not even on the 335i!!! I'm hoping the CKD will add this feature.

hehe.. thanks Paul.. so the ECOPRO, Comfort, Sport, Sport+ has nothing to do with suspension? First time I hear "COMFORT" has nothing to do with suspension.. alamak! :4:

I tested the ECOPRO.. My Avanza throttle is more responsive than this mode.. both Sport and Sport+ I can feel the steering reacted when mode is selected..

The F30 Sportsline supposedly comes with a sport suspension that lowers the car by 10mm BUT the CBU units are not equipped with it. It's merely what Paul mentioned and that's a big turnoff. I'm off to get the S5 sportback instead!
