The bmwusa.com M3 configurator works fine!

Pasta Blitz · 02-19-2008, 08:09 PM

Yes

nusevad · 02-19-2008, 08:15 PM

really?? Its not showing up for me...maybe they took it down again.

Pasta Blitz · 02-19-2008, 08:22 PM

I 'm using right now!

par4bmw · 02-19-2008, 08:25 PM

It is no longer on the regular M menu unless I am missing something. The prior version had major bugs.

Alumac · 02-19-2008, 08:25 PM

Not showing up for me either...

Did you access it through something other than the "Build Your Own" option on the front page?

Yep, though it's pretty slow--it's in the main Build Your Own menu now.
- Destination of $775 is now listed
- Speed Cloth still not available
- M-DCT still not available
- GGT not listed

But, the M3s have disappeared from the menu bar at the top.

Well, two steps forward, one step back.

You got to do it differently, on the bottom of the screen where it says Built your own

I realize it's in the main BYO menu, as I stated. But my point is it is no longer listed in the top menu bar with the other M cars. So, there is no way to select specs or image gallery (though they did not work before).

BK · 02-19-2008, 10:29 PM

Damn, the site is slow. Also, does the 360 degree view work for anyone? It hasn't worked for me since the configurator was first up -- instead of turning slowly, it's like on 200 cups of coffee, spinning at hyper-speed. Also, photos sometimes come up, sometimes don't.

Oh well, better than nothing.

They're still showing euro seats..wtf. Can we sue for false advertising?

Yeah, I think that is definately a problem.

From the kinda "fixed" BMWUSA website:

iatacs19 · 02-20-2008, 08:53 AM

Where is the Speed Cloth option??

Those are the same seats as in the brochure I got the other day from the local dealer. I looked and looked and nowhere in the brochure did it say "some european parts show", or similar. Wonder wtf they are doing?? Geez. As for the website in general....pitiful.

the_stranger · 02-20-2008, 09:52 AM

Its still not working well. Its full of bugs.

mhutchins14 · 02-20-2008, 10:17 AM

Still very slow and still no 360 degree rotation.

It should be on the very back page of the brochure. Its the standard BMW boilerplate text used on all their advertising in the USA. "BMW reserves the right to make changes at any time, without notice, in colors, materials, equipment, specifications and models."

You can get to the car specs and all that good stuff, if you select ALL BMWs, then M3 coupe/sedan ...

I'm sure they will add the extra link in to the M pull down soon enough.
