That M sport steering wheel missing from a 128i M-sport is really pissing me off though. And if I were a 135i guy, I'd be über pissed about the brakes.
The 6 piston brakes are still on the US microsite so I still have hope.

Same. How can an 18,000 dollar MINI have Ambiance Lighting standard but a ~35,000 dollar BMW not? :mad:

Hey guys I don't think anyone mentioned this already but in the options page I didn't see anything about the oil cooler coming with the sport package...could that mean it's standard on the 135??? I certainly hope so!

The oil cooler situation isn't really something that they want to validate as an "issue" to the general public. If TUD got his inside info with pointed questions he may well be right.

Maybe it's standard though - who knows...?

I am interested in these as an option as well. Also, I noticed that they listed the the brake lights that get brighter with pedal pressure and I thought that these wouldnt make it over to the US car, so that is exciting but also weird too! Anyone else think this is interesting or am I just weird?

Guys, I have Terra leather in my e90. Love it. The 1er get Terracotta though, not Terra. Terra is brown/dirt colored.

The X3 had Terracotta leather, and it was almost orange (the pic is not an exaggeration). Here's a pic of the X3 Terracotta leather:


Just keeping people in check here. Ther rest of the options are phenominal news. We just need some pricing info now. Great work, OP!

The 1er hatches get Terra leather as an option, not terracotta. That 2nd pic is the same color leather as in my e90. We won't get that option with the coupe.

Here's some more terracotta pics (it's orangey for sure):

Look on the bright side, in addition to being able to order a Superman car (Montego/Coral), you can get a Halloween car (Jet Black/Terracotta).

I do have to say that the swatch looks more like Terra though. I severely hope that this was a typo on the brochure (like the car's weight is).

Three complaints...

1. No moonroof delete (apparently)
2. Electric Power Steering (would it have killed 'em to give this car BMW's tried-and-true hydraulic rack?).
3. No Tahiti Green (I can live without it, but I did like this color).

If they had a different number of gears, it might make sense, but otherwise, the difference would be very negligible, if any at all.

Ahh, I was looking for it on the quickreply box.
I tried uploading and it didn't work. I e-mailed the admin, but who knows how long that will take. :iono:

If you want it, e-mail me at Endor_82@hotmail.com with the subject "135i Brochure" and I'd be happy to send it on.

Terra cotta should be "orangey" its the color of a flower pot, no.

Man, this brochure makes me want the premium package, but I want certain aspects (oil cooler, sport seats) of the sport package as well. Decisions, Decisions. :iono:

Terracotta is very reminiscient of Cinnamon that was available in the E46 M3.

VERY sought after interior color currently in the used E46 M3 market.
