As of today, there is a new website interface for BMW USA, and looks a lot like its european courterparts now. I like it!

o thats cool, it is like the euro one, i like it much better, too bad the build your own is down right now

The 128i and 135i are now live (the M3 and the 135i coupe still under future cars). The X6 is not yet on the site at all.

I like their series "slogans" (was that part of the old website also?)

1 - Handsome looks with sporting intentions.
3 - Pure joy. Measured in smiles per hour.
5 - Settle for more.
6 - Live vicariously through no one.
7 - The driver's luxury car.
X3 - Antioverkill.
X5 - Jack-of-all-trades. Master-of-all-roads.
Z4 - The power to free yourself.
M - The most powerful letter in the world.

meh. well, at least it's finally more safari-friendly. we'll have to see once build-your-own comes back because it never worked in safari.

continentalg5 · 12-16-2007, 03:53 PM

I'm having mixed feelings about it.

I was going through it again, and I don't like the lack of a preview when scrolling over individual models. As a whole it's a little better.

Btw, someone noted something interesting: Apparently the e90/e92 335i's come with shadowline now? Wtf? So unfair...

cool site for bmw usa

lecatrache · 12-16-2007, 08:40 PM

"Build Your Own" is now working - it's very cool (for example 3D rotation) but it's very slow.

ages944 · 12-16-2007, 10:14 PM

.NET... ugh

Also, is it just me, or is it noticeably slower now?

... I however do like how its more visually aligned with the other sites from around the world though.

Excuse my ignorance - what's shadowline??

sinnet112 · 12-16-2007, 11:02 PM

Shadowline is the trim around the windows that isn't chromed like it is now on the 335i's.

BYO is the slowest thing ever...
