    Congrats P1et. When I first saw them I thought WTF has BMW done? Then I got to work on one and was actually impressed with it very much.

    Thank you! After test driving it, I was sold on it. That DCT transmission is amazing (my mother's 335i has it too) and it's amazingly quick.

    Here are the options:

    - Alpine White
    - Lemon Boston Leather
    - Convenience Package
    - M Sport Package
    - Premium Package
    - 7-Speed double clutch transmission
    - Heated front seats
    - Satellite radio
    - Harman Kardon surround sound

    Quick picture, full detail this weekend!

    Congrats from a fellow '11 135 owner, heres a little story on how I came about getting mine. I had a 08 328 that was my wifes daily driver, I took it down to my local BMW dealer for tires as I was waiting for the tires to get mounted the CA came out and told me it would be about an hour, they were behind, I said fine and was walking around the showroom talking to my sales guy checking out the 135. It was order by someone but they never picked it up, he asked if I wanted to take it for a spin, at first I declined because I really didn't like it looks-wise but he finally talked me into taking it. Halfway thru the test ride(I went alone) I called him and told him to stop putting the tires on my car I'm taking the 1 lol. I have owned 6 BMW's including an E46 M3 and this is by far my favorite I have had. You should have seen the look on my wifes face after I came home from what was supposed to be a routine tire change with a new car lol. That was about 11 months ago and we both are still gloating over how much we enjoy the car. Mine has the same options as yours minus Nav but it is Titanium Silver on Black Dakota. DCT is brilliant also loads better than the SMG, Enjoy!!!!

    forget you, congrats to your wife! haha throw some light tint on there and be done with it. When I was in school I worked for a BMW dealership on the promo team, got to drive the 1 to the events quite a bit, fun little car!

    Awesome story, and I can believe. When we test drove the 135i and I got behind the wheel, my wife told me she's never seen me with a bigger grin on my face. Well, almost never ;) Ours also doesn't have nav, so it looks like we have similar specs. Got any pics of yours?

    Already bought the black kidney grill, tint is being worked on and also looking at throwing on the '12 tail lights as they're not that expensive.
