I believe this qualifies as a "downgrade"

Isn't that the older shifter? I also thought the boot style was discontinued. I could be wrong

Either way it looks good!

I believe the one with the leather girdle and full aluminum comes with the Sport Automatic Transmission option, while the plastic one is for cars without it.

328 and 335 should have both been given the new shifter at the 2016 LCI as well, with the 320 keeping the standard shifter.

That's only if you have the Sport Automatic (2TB) chosen (with paddle shifters). If you just have option 205, it'll be the non-boot angular one.

If only someone local in YVR would want to buy my 2TB shifter... removed it from my old 2013, since I had traded it in with the original 205 shifter.
