Info in other thread should guide you. Vibration/wobble has been evident in all F30 cars, worldwide. Cars with DHP (VSS and Adaptive M) will experience much less or no vibration and ALL F30 cars built after 11/2012 should be OK.
Test drive cars and find out for yourself. Not all F30's are a problem. You may get lucky and find a gem. Trying to help.

Ask the dealerships about the vibration adn the seat frame rust and see if they BS you and say they haven't heard of it.
And if they truly haven't heard of either, don't buy there...to me that says they're not really into the product. |

Rusty front seat frames on pre Nov 2012 builds has been an issue. Search the forum. Plenty of pics and woes from some owners. F30, like most other new designs, is not perfect.
