Yesterday I got my BMW 120d Coupé M Le Mans blue with 261M wheels. I took some pictures here ENJOY

Looks great! More pics please!!!

Wow! Very nice and congrats! Thanks for posting. I'm trying to decide between Lemans blue and crimson red. So this helps a lot.

One question: Is the color in the pictures a good comparison to real life when you look at your car? I want to get a sense if the pictures show the blue faded, or too light or too dark, or the pictures are a good representation of real life color. Thanks.

The gallery with more pics

topzipi · 02-02-2008, 09:54 AM

@InOttawa :The pictures are a good representation of real life color if the sun shines but if there is no sun the blue is really darker.

How are the manual seats? Easy to adjust I take it?

darknightohio · 02-02-2008, 10:32 AM

Thanks for sharing topzipi. I took one of the shots and tweaked it a bit in PS:

HOLY COW THAT CAR IS HOT!! I WANT 261 WHEELS SO BAD!

topzipi · 02-02-2008, 11:01 AM

@darknightohio: Amazing picture! How did you do this in PS? Is it difficult?
@Tuned1: the manual seats are really easy to adjust. There is a multitude of possible adjustments.

Loving the pics, good to see some more pics of non 135's with the m-sport pack.

Dumb question i know but howcome they say the 135i has a larger front air damn (intake) It looks the same to me. (Unless they're talking about the foglights which it doesn't have due to breaking)...

Imo. foglights make it look more sporty.

EDIT: Out of interest, does your 120d come with vanity mirror lighting? Here the 135i has the lighting package standard so it does have the vanity mirror lights (togehter with the footwell lights and door handle lights in the pkg). (If not, i'm guessing you'd need to take out the extra lighting package - which i would have expected it to be standard since its a coupe)

Very nice shots! They look straight out of a professional BMW photo shoot.

I would be very, very happy with this exact car -- if they ever imported it here to the states...

topzipi · 02-02-2008, 12:14 PM

@Twisted: Yes I have the Lighting Package (is an option) with all the lights you mention. The LED door lights look amazing at night. I'll try to make some pictures next week at night and some interior pics.

TunedM2C · 02-02-2008, 03:41 PM

I don't believe we'll get the puddle light here but I wonder how hard it would be to retrofit them?

DimaGt · 02-02-2008, 04:53 PM

Congrats Topzipi!!!! Very nice looking colour, I absolutely Love it!!!

What do you think of the engine and its performance and how is Aluminium trim? A lot of people have been saying it looks cheap and wears to fast. I personally like this trim, however did not see it in person. Anyway, Great car mate...

Pics are fantastic, best view yet of Le Mans Blue - too bad that crapo gallery software is such a PITA when you want to download the large images...

Twisted · 02-03-2008, 02:19 AM

Devon: at the top of the gallery you have the option of downloading the whole zip file with all the pictures...

I think its 32mb ...

Robert · 02-03-2008, 02:54 AM

nice!

Saw that, but assumed (perhaps wrongly) that only the smaller versions of the images would be in that archive...
