New Member, searching for the perfect E70 LCI

[JupiterBMW]

Hello folks..

Just joined the site and wanted to post up. Not entirely new to the marque, we currently own our 3rd and 4th BMWs right now. The progression as follows:

1. 2012 X3 35i M Sport (for the wife and upcoming baby), purchased new. Alpine White/Oyster Nevada leather
2. 2004 330i ZHP (my toy), totaled 6 months later... Alpine White/Natural Brown Montana leather
3. 2003 330i ZHP (my next toy/replacement). Alpine White/Natural Brown Montana Leather
4. 2014 328d (new one for the wife). Mineral White Metallic/Saddle Brown Nevada leather

We traded the X3 because I didn't see the need for the SUV at the time, I feared the Oyster would be too hard to keep clean (baby 1 was born, 2nd on the way), and I wasn't impressed with the gas mileage. I thought a sedan would be plenty big enough...

We've had the 328d for about 6 months now, took one family trip to the airport with luggage and 1 stroller... Nope, car must go, back to the SUV... This time, stepping into what I really want, an E70 LCI M Sport...

So, on the hunt for a 2011-2013 M Sport, open to either the 35i or 50i, preferably Alpine White or Deep Sea Blue. Absolutely no black, but I want to see a Carbon Black in person to make a decision on it. Looking for quite a few options, and with what I want, I'm mostly looking for '13 models...

Anyway, excited to be part of the group... Will do a few minor mods, but it'll be the wife's car, so not a ton...

Those of you with the OEM Performance Package, is it worth it? I want it for the rarity of it, but the money its going to cost might not be worth it... So, what do you say?
