Which Trim should you buy?
There’s not much to choose from but the 330i is so fully packed that you don’t need to find another trim. You could also make the inside of the 330i a more comfortable place by opting for the available packages. If at all you’re looking for something more exciting, then the M340i would suit you better. However, it costs almost $15,000 more than the 330i.
