Yes... it just shows the difference between a factory installed "upgrade" trim or this idiotically priced and marketed additional equipment you get from AHM.... Plus you gotta pay for the installation at a dealer...

So, like, you really wants to own TWO set of tires, wheels. springs... etc....

Come on AHM's Marketing.. WAKE UP.... make this a trim level from the factory.

Yeah, the 330i PP is a ture PERFORMANCE package...

Because not only does their package enhance handling and interior quality, the enhanced intake/exhaust system they provide actually increases HP and reduces 0-60mph time from 6.4 to 5.9. I don't really like sedans, but the 330i PP makes me drool for it. I mean... look at Mazda for pete's sake... their Mazdaspeed Protege at least includes Turbo.

They need to forget the FPP and bring in the Type-Rs.
