My 1 is waiting on me

swiftss13 · 02-06-2009, 12:05 AM

I am about to finish up a 15 month deployment to Iraq here in couple of weeks. I ordered my 135i back in October to be delivered in February to Hawaii. Here is a few photos the CA took for me. This is just a little more motivation to get home. I know the color combo wont be everyones cup of tea. I like it though and I wanted to be a little different. Some of the mods wating to be installed are a JB3, Riss Racing DDV, Riss Racing OCC, OEM alarm, BMW performance pedals, and a Steamline drop in filter.

Any feedback will be appreciated.

Combo is good , but if I choose that combo I would have chosen another interior trim

swiftss13 · 02-06-2009, 04:15 AM

Thanks! I was a little nervous about the color combo, but after seeing the pics I am pleased.

Mark · 02-06-2009, 06:37 AM

Great combo! congrats

BlackjackMulligan · 02-06-2009, 07:37 AM

I think it looks great, and happy to hear you like it!

syenisch · 02-06-2009, 07:48 AM

Less then two weeks and I will be home, this is just a little more motivation.

ChrisM135i · 02-06-2009, 10:56 AM

Great combo you got their!

Is the color "Bluewater metallic"? I´ve never seen the color on a 1 before!

Edit: Ok, question is already answered.. saw the pics in the Bluewater-Thread..

Nice Car! You are going to love it.

I wonder what will be your first thing you found out that you didn't read in the manual?

MI128 · 02-06-2009, 02:07 PM

I actually like the combo. Congrats...

KathyFG · 02-06-2009, 03:33 PM

Dude, it looks sweet- I think the color combo is great. I am in the Army too, and just finished up a one-year mob out to Schofield- can't beat that huh? Well, stay safe, and thanks for serving. I'm sure you'll love zooming up the H-2 in your new toy.

Are you in the reserves? I am sure you enjoyed you time out there. I have been living in Hawaii for a while now, I have better roads to play on then H2. H2 has too many motorcyle cops.

It looks good! Congrats! Have a safe trip back home

Novator · 02-07-2009, 02:52 AM

Nice looking 1er you got there

It'd be nice to cruise sometime. Just had the carbon fiber spoiler installed this past Tuesday, man do I love the look. I can't imagine how insanely quick your 1 will be after a JB3 and RR goodies

Robert · 02-07-2009, 03:31 AM

You are going to run out of land on unleashing that little beast on the island

We will have to get together, I want to see that spoiler in person. Depending on when I get back I am going to try to make the euro cruise on the 21st and the small meet on the 28th.

I might not run out of land, but it sure will be fun trying.

Kevin The Clean 1 · 02-07-2009, 04:35 AM

swiftss13,

Nice car brother. That color looks great on the 135i coupes. That interior color choice matches or compliments the exterior & looks better then I thought it would. Nice to see something different... !

AlienDNA · 02-07-2009, 08:25 AM

Love the Bluewater. I considered it myself, but my neighbour's Benz is silver-blue and we have a shared drive.

That interior colour wasn't an option on Canadian Bluewater, otherwise I might still be deciding on colour combinations. It's very classy, in the manner of Jaguars when they still were so gorgeous that you'd buy them even though you knew they were just an electrical fire waiting to happen.

Rawhide · 02-07-2009, 09:25 AM

I love the bluewater! Nice!

swiftss13 · 02-07-2009, 05:04 PM

Thanks for the compliments!
