jmr_70 · 06-17-2009, 03:19 PM

You may have seen these in the cosmetics section but anyways, here's my contribution to the Monaca photo album. Haven't had much time for mods yet (can't seem to get away from work) but their on the way! Enjoy!

Wanted to take a whole bunch of shots after washing my 128 yesterday, but was late for dinner so just snapped one with my compact. Looks a bit darker since the sun wasn't hitting it directly. Enjoy

Hi all,

I picked up my new 128i on Friday so my deal could get it on the books for July and so I could spend the weekend playing with my new car. I got it today to finish the cleaning.. Attached are a few photos.

I picked the 128i because it was the closest to my old 2000 E46 328CI which was on its last legs. I loved that car! Anyhow, the 128i looks similar from a cockpit point of view, although it isn't nearly as refined. The drive, however, is very different. This car keeps reminding me of a go-cart! lol It really seems like a cross between my old E46 and 550 Sypder (I sold it years ago to learn to fly and get the E46.. 0-60 in 3.4s was going to be the end of me).

Anyhow, here are the pics:

Well, when I was looking at purchasing my 128i in this configuration, I had a hard time finding pictures in the color and model. There are lots of 135i cars and several 128i cars w/o sports package, but very few 128i in Monaco with savanna and gray poplar. I posted so many pictures to help others researching their new 128i.

Thanks for the positive feedback........

Beautiful car. I have the same interior color and trim on my 135 and still love the look of it. It's a shame Monaco is gone, it's a beautiful color (albeit too maintenance intensive for my taste

)

Congrats!

Yeah, I just learned that BMW discontinued Monaco Blue for the 2010 models -what a shame! However, I think the Deep Sea Blue will be a very nice color --a little lighter than what we have now.

As for trim, I have the Savanna Beige as well --what a great combo.

I agree, does anyone have Monaco blue and window tint?? I'm seriously considering it!

1bonna · 09-08-2009, 07:20 PM

Adding this to the album!

BlueforMonaco · 09-20-2009, 07:44 AM

I was really counting on this color for the 2010's. I'm finding it difficult to get enthused about any other color.

matt · 10-25-2009, 04:10 AM

now that theres no more monaco blue avaiable, who got pix of midnight blue?

Racing Teatray · 12-09-2010, 10:01 AM

Few more Monaco Blue pics:

This is Notre Dame du Roc in Castellon on the Route Napoleon in Southern France:

Colle di Tenda (Italian Riviera):

On the Grande Corniche high above Cap Martin on the Cote d'Azure:

And to prove that Monaco and Terra are a good combo:

Must say, Monaco Blue, def one of my fav!@!@

Racing Teatray · 12-14-2010, 10:29 AM

You can't get it anymore. It's been replaced with Deep Sea Blue which looks pretty similar to me.

jflip158 · 01-19-2011, 01:08 PM

I have the same monaco blue on lemon 135. I am nothing but happy with it but havent had mine very long. looking for tips on care and problems you might have

bam9382 · 01-27-2011, 04:59 PM

Just got my monaco blue today!

ENZO- · 03-27-2011, 08:40 AM

I can't believe they discontinued this beautiful color. I just gat a 2011 and had to get jet black.

Lefthandblack · 04-07-2011, 03:02 PM

I just purchased an 08 135i in Monaco Blue! The pics don't do this color justice, it really is amazing. I will post some pics soon!
