Looking at Buying a used 335i

applecello · 02-08-2010, 09:32 PM

Hey, I'm looking at buying a 2008 335i. Is there any way to look up the options based on the VIN? I've seen some decoders online but they don't seem to get the complete information. The last 7 of the vin: P156377

Thanks for any help in advance.

Just call any BMW dealer and provide VIN# and they will be able to answer your question re: options. That's how I did it.

+1. I just e-mailed my friendly neighborhood BMW SA and gave him the VINs of the cars I was looking at. He then sent me the options AND maintenance history of the cars.

THanks all, I gave it a shot and emailed one of the SA's at the local dealership. We'll see what happens.

Just go to a BMW dealer and give them VIN. They will print you out a build list that will tell you everything.

Be patient, OP. The person who's answering the official VIN decoder thread will get to your number.
