Pics 135i lemans blue / fabric leather Pearlpoint Beige

md80 · 01-31-2008, 12:44 PM

The pearlpoint fabric looks very good and feels very comfortable!! It is not as yellowish as it might seem (pictures were unfortunately taken in a hurry)

My own bebe AW 120d M-sport will arrive on week 10 and will post more pics then, should have gone with 18" 261 M but took the ones that come with the package automatically, 17" 207 M. Enjoy the pics!

nice seats liking the texture

no cloth at all for us in the usa makes me 8(

ChrisK · 01-31-2008, 12:51 PM

Incredible combo!

SA135i · 01-31-2008, 01:06 PM

I see this one also does not have the shark fin aerial at the back. I thought this was standard on all BMW's?

md80 · 01-31-2008, 01:20 PM

Thought so too but I guess the shark fin comes with the navigation system?! At least in Finland where nothing in cars is "as standard"

SCA · 01-31-2008, 01:35 PM

Very nice! Once again the US gets the shaft on exterior colors and interior seating materials (cloth).

NOLEimit · 01-31-2008, 01:40 PM

They dont get flip down rear headrests either

AMB · 01-31-2008, 02:00 PM

Anything but black plastic looks tacky and cheap IMO. That why I avoid Beige and Grey. If they two-toned it like they do with Red, then I might consider it.

mlevere1988 · 01-31-2008, 02:31 PM

I wish we could get the leather with the cloth insert here in the US. Not as cold on my butt in the Midwest Winter as leather(ette) would be. Not to mention it would keep it in place when finding the apex.

Yeah, I guess that may be it. Strange still as I have a shark fin on my E90 and don't have nav.

Thud · 01-31-2008, 03:23 PM

I'm not a big fan of the light-colored monochrome interiors... but I wish we could get cloth like that here.

bimmernotbeamer · 01-31-2008, 04:01 PM

That's a very nice cloth interior. Has anyone in Canada tried ordering cloth as a special option?

ErikB · 01-31-2008, 07:47 PM

I REALLY like that combo!

carguymo · 04-15-2008, 11:24 AM

Yea I'd be willing to pay extra to upgrade from leatherette to cloth. I'd LOVE to see cloth in the same colors and two-tone interior combos as the leathers. Jet Black over Coral Red cloth in a 135 vert! YUMMY! Or have Moonlight Black cloth on the seats that matches the Moonlight Black cloth top.

Very nice !!

That looks fantastic!

jeremyc74 · 04-15-2008, 01:41 PM

Perfect128 · 04-15-2008, 02:02 PM

Is the non-cloth portion of the seats leather or -ette?

SlickShift · 04-15-2008, 04:47 PM

Beige overload on that interior! I like a little contrast.

aesthetect · 04-16-2008, 03:32 PM

i would so much rather prefer cloth for every single reason.. until it came time for resale. i guess unless your leather(ette) is all beat to hell

and i cant imagine trying to keep the lighter color carpets/plastics clean

///Morgan · 04-16-2008, 05:43 PM

That is Montego Blue, not LeMans. I can notice it because that car has not the option of the M-Sport pack. Kind of loving that tone under showroom lights.

md80: I think your have made the right choice... I have seen those 207M on a 130i and it looks great. My choice was the 261M, but I am still not sure about that and neither the LeMans Blau I orderered

malves85 · 04-16-2008, 07:01 PM

Wow that looks really good! Wish we had more options like that in the states
