JACKPOT! Thanks for the link.

If my car isn't already built I'd switch over to SGM/Coral - Nav in a heart beat!
I should have gotten coral with TiAg.

That looks like monterey. Halfmoon bay is way north past San Jose

i think the 135i coupe looks great in montego blue. On the other hand, I think the 135i vert in montego blue looks like crap.

The top on the Vert looks really strange, much stranger than i thought. Maybe it will take some getting used to, like on the 6 series vert also.

Thanks for the pics!!!!!!

Templedogg · 02-15-2008, 12:46 AM

Awesome, thanks a ton for all the pics. How can say that about Montego Gatorfast? Look at this pic and tell me what color best shows off the lines of the car and catches your eye first. Be honest.

It does look better on the coupe, but it is an awesome color. I personally have not seen a color I did not like.

runfun1 · 02-15-2008, 12:51 AM

Thanks for the pics!! The convertible looks just like mine will (except i got the terra interior) I am sooo excited!!!

Drawarms · 02-15-2008, 01:13 AM

I think the montego is gonna look better in person on that car, ive seen it on plenty of 3's, and it looks good.

soolman32 · 02-15-2008, 01:54 AM

Hello to all. New to the forum and have been looking around the forum for a few days now. Lots of good info and the white 135i is just beautiful.

Didn't see any Monaco in that set. Still haven't seen a single real photo of a Monaco Blue 1er coupe.

SGM/Coral rocks! I like the way that SGM integrates with other design elements; it sets off the wheels & sets off the headlight assemblies. Even the taillights look good.

And pairing the sort-of buttoned-down SGM with a wild Coral interior gives a nice psycho-killer schizophrenia to the whole thing.

One suggestion, though: Move to a state that doesn't require a front license plate. Doggy.

Year1of1 · 02-15-2008, 05:41 AM

great article, the pics were even better

MZWIE · 02-15-2008, 06:37 AM

They added that stupid shark fin antenna again. I hate that thing up there.

Will it come even if you didn't order SAT?

I haven't seen one without it...

MZWIE · 02-15-2008, 06:54 AM

Totally useless....and it ruins the look of the roof line.

I disagree.

I think the car looks amazing in AW, SGM, and Montego Blue.

larryn · 02-15-2008, 07:17 AM

A few things I noticed. First, the car looks amazing in most colors. I don't like the wheels on the 128i though, and I think the car looks a bit stubby with them on it.

The rear camber looks really aggressive from behind, and the 245's look larger than I expected on the car.

Anybody else notice the engine bay of the 135i without the oil cooler lines coming out of the oil filter housing? Today they take the cars to Laguna Seca to beat on them. We'll hear first off, if anybody gets limp modes induced, or the temp gets way up there. I remember the 335i press events had mentioned that a few cars went into limp mode. Let's see what happens here.

Merged the two duplicate threads

This pic makes me fell good about going with SGM/Coral.

And look how much larger the SGM is compared to the others!
I wonder if there is more room inside as well.

:wink:

That's about as wide angle as you can get without it being a fisheye lens. Closest objects always look bigger, the wider angle you get.

joelk · 02-15-2008, 07:25 AM

i love how the 1er looks like it's about to bust at the seams. it's the incredible hulk ... don't make it mad. :-)

Endgame · 02-15-2008, 07:42 AM

One of my first post here, I was torn primarily between the 135 and the next Rotary car. Currently, the 135 has more delegates than the next rotary car and is pulling away. Folks, voting just may be over. I still want to wait a couple years to see if a performance version is released however.

AW and Montego Blue, simply stunning. Wait until the aftermarket comes out with a few odds and ends to make it look even nicer.
