The 2016 BMW 4-Series has taken the once optional Sport Line body kit and made it standard. That comes with a boost in price. The entry-level 428i coupe is now $1145 more, at $42,845 with rear-wheel drive and $44,845 for xDrive.

The six-cylinder 435i is getting a $1945 boost in price over the 2015 model which brings its price up to $49,145. Adding the xDrive brings the price up to $51,145. Convertible variants bump up the price by $1295 and $2095 respectively for the 428i and 435i models.

The Sport Line body kit gives 18-inch wheels, heavily bolstered seats, blackout trim, a red-stitched steering wheel, and a red-accented key fob.

Another change worth noting is that Estoril Blue can only acquired through special order.

Looks like BMW listened to its customers, most like the sport line kit and doing this help them greatly and even us.

I guess they just baked it into the price now. Basically they are just forcing you to buy it now.
