Swiss BSM 1M with chrome line, delivered June 27th 2011

1M · 06-28-2011, 04:24 AM

Hi

Took delivery of my BSM 1M yesterday, had no time yet to do a proper photo shoot but I think you might enjoy to see a BSM with chrome line and without tinted windows.
I haven’t seen so far any other pictures with the chrome, all the BSM seems to be "black-black”. Question of taste I guess but my car looks a bit different in my opinion.
The car was delivered new with the "135i style" chrome grilles, this was done by the dealer as I wanted them when I have ordered the car.

I have pre-ordered the car in December, firm order in February and it was delivered to my Swiss Geneva dealer last week.

I like! Not normally a fan of Chrome on BMWs generally.

Of all three colours, I think Chromeline looks the best on BSM and I actually like the chrome slatted grilles too!

Nice job. Congrats.

Stratus650 · 06-28-2011, 05:03 AM

Congrats !! I know the dealer hehe it's Pius Buchs SA on Route de Meyrin.

Finally Tram construction work is completed on this route.

Fantastic car, And a fantastic plate number

I'll be in Geneve by 2nd week of July. Would be nice to see it in Person

It looks good because it suits with the rims.
Suits you sir!

Don't remember the name of the tv serie...

Racing Teatray · 06-28-2011, 09:51 AM

Agree - good call on the chrome grille. Have been thinking the same thing ever since I first saw the 1M.

CDR_UK · 06-29-2011, 01:25 AM

Congratulations!!! Looks great!

Nice. IMHO the euro-spec bright/white front blinkers suit the BSM 1M better than the orange ones (US spec).

Thx

I love that kind of British humour

Sylon · 06-29-2011, 06:24 AM

Is it bad that when I saw the words "Chrome Line" I was immediately expecting to see 2 chrome stripes going down the center of the car with 2 giant GT logos on the rear quarter panels? lol

Car looks great dude, congrats!
