Long Island 1ers?

MONTEGO_E82 · 02-15-2009, 01:40 PM

I have Montego 135i sport, work for Habberstad BMW. Have seen a Titanium 135i sport driving around lately. Might be the one that was at the body shop up the street for a while??

exactly - only on long island can you go to a car meet at 7am and see a ferrari enzo roll out, along w/ countless other supercars... ever see that guy w/ the twin turbo ford gt? wow...

Ok i'm about to sound like an idiot. but where is OBI? My guess is that its somewhere out in Suffolk right?

You know, I've seen one or two 128is rolling around in the Queens / LI area, but NEVER seen a 135i yet in almost two years. I'm starting to think these cars are rare in general.

Very rare! Only 20k 08 sold in USA, that only 400 per state. I hear that's comes down to a ratio of 1 in every 50,000 vehicles on the road. No wonder I never see any of my own, even in the metro NYC area.
..btw, I like it that way

It was my understanding that less than 10,000 were sold (128 & 135) in 2008. Makes it even rarer!

Hey, I have a question for you if you don't mind. In December I brought my 135 in for a TCU module replacement. A sofware upgrade was part of the correction.

Today while driving to Poughkeepsie, I got a new screen on the Nav alerting me of traffic ahead. I was then asked if I wanted to chose a detour. Did BMW upgrade the Nav software?

Thanks,

If you see a JB 135i with 20% tints rolling around Nassau county or Queens, its probably me. Its amazing that I STILL haven't seen a 135i on the road yet, and I do a lot of driving.
