BMW 330Li M Sport 50 Jahre edition
The accent of the 330Li M Sport 50 Jahre Edition is the very minor visual modifications in comparison to the rest model. It is given a gloss-black finish to the kidney grille, window surrounds, rear diffuser, and tailpipes. Its exclusiveness is captured with a 1/50 badge on the B-pillar.
Internally, the sedan is presented with carbon fibre interior trim, the head-up display and the 3D augmented navigation.
Exterior colours consist of Mineral White, Skyscraper Grey, and M Carbon Black colours with Vernasca Cognac and black upholstery.
With the usual 2.0 litre, turbo-petrol engine that can deliver 258 hp and 400Nm, power comes with the usual drivetrain as used by the regular 330Li.
