I had the same problem with my 328ic. Have it tuned up but for the time being you just give it gas as your starting it.

like njoutlaw88 alluded to, your engine is probably flooded. You don't need a tune up though, just fuel injector cleaner. To get it to start, push the gas pedal to the floor for a good 10 seconds and keep it to the floor as you attempt to start the car. Once it starts, keep a steady pressure so that it will not stall and it will burn out the excess gas. Good luck man.

check the links on your throttle cable. i remember BMW had a recall on that throttle links...they were missing some white clips to keep them in place.
