There is a hitch available for your 2011 BMW 328i Sedan, but the Valley Stealth Vertical Trailer Hitch, part # V81821, will not fit your vehicle. This hitch is designed to fit the BMW 335i convertibles, coupes and sedans.

You would want a Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # 24857, for your 328i. This hitch is a confirmed fit for you vehicle. I included installation instructions for this product.
